COFFEE
Decaffeinated coffee makes me hungry, even when it’s half decaf and half caffeinated. Caffeinated or regular coffee doesn’t. There’s a tipping point that I’ve discovered in myself regarding coffee and hunger. Now that I know what it is, I can manage it to my benefit.
THIS IS HOW CONTROLLING MY HUSBAND IS:
I took the laundry cart out as a precursor to doing the laundry – only bedding today. He sees it before taking a shower and says what’s this cart doing out here? Don’t do laundry. I’ll do it on my day off. I say I’m only doing bedding. He says okay, then says no. IContinue reading “THIS IS HOW CONTROLLING MY HUSBAND IS:”

BURN THAT FAT AND DON’T BRING IT BACK
Everything bad gets stored in my fat. Ever wonder why when you begin to lose weight you feel like crap? That’s because all the stored toxins in your fat go into your blood stream when your fat is burned for fuel. So, why would I want to carry around with me – every minute ofContinue reading “BURN THAT FAT AND DON’T BRING IT BACK”
WISHING ON A WEED
FOR ME Eating protein doesn’t make me want to eat more and more of it. Eating carbs doesn’t make me want to eat more and more of them. Simple, complex, doesn’t matter. They don’t push the addiction button – for me. For me it’s fat. Fat with anything. Alone too. But I don’t usually eatContinue reading “WISHING ON A WEED”
