My Recovering Emotional Eater's Prayer:
Lord, grant me the discipline not to eat emotionally, ask for your guidance during emotional highs as well as lows, and the wisdom to drink water when I am tempted.
Take back my health and change my habits to a better lifesyle.
Goal (Long):
Short goal: I want to change my eating and exercising habits to a healthier lifestyle (6wks). I want to drop body fat and transform my body (6wks).
I’ve been active on and off most of my life but life itself got in the way of me being healthy. If it wasn’t having a family, it was divorce, if it wasn’t a new job it was getting laid off, if it wasn’t socializing with friends around food, it was resolving my frustrations with food. I used to say I have baby fat, now that I'm a grandmother, do I have grandbaby fat (LOL)?
A few years back, I started having health issues and my doctor(s)-several specialists said that I could control my health issues with lifestyle changes. They all said the same thing... They would give me temporary perscriptions to help the symptoms but I had to decide to do the work. Now that my life is stress free and food is no longer an option to stressful situations, I am on a mission to get my life back. With effort, dedication and encouragement from friends on this site I know I can acheive my goals!

What tips would you give to others to help them stay motivated over the long-term?
Hummm, One day at a time sweet Jesus! Well, I really don't know yet. If I'm still doing this after a year, I'm sure I could think of something.
Hey look I can fit in these 12s!!! Uh, not! 3+ more inches off the hips is what I need! This is the frustrating part of my weight loss journey. These pants belong to my god-daughter age 24. She lived with me a few years before she when off to college about 6 yrs ago. I have...
1st six weeks cardio, circuit training and more cardio. I am heavy and need to maintain my musles and get the fat off. I lift slightly heavier weights for my upper body so that I have form while the cardio shaves off fat from my lower body.
