In with all that I am

Hey team! Missing two weeks has been dreadful. I was thinking of you each week as our time to talk rolled around. I am back. I have been reviewing the Blog and trying to get up to speed on what you amazing gals have accomplished. Whoa! What an inspirational group. I am also re-committing to myself and to you all and to our collective success.

Let me share a couple of things. The Fuel or Poison thing works. I have incorporated that into my dialogue with food. More often than not I am opting for fuel. Sometimes a Poison made its way in but it was a MINDFUL choice and not a MINDLESS choice. I think there is a big difference. Thank you Mark for that.

As you all know, cruises are famous for the food. During our vacation the cruise line offered choices on the dinner menu from Cooking Light Magazine (appetizer, main course, and dessert). I am a total foodie and equate rich food with happiness (another message to change). So I was skeptical that the Cooking Light option could give me the gourmet experience I craved. BUT IT DID! I tried each night to choose the Cooking Light Choices and was always happy that I did. I left the dinner table pleased and not plump. I highly recommend checking out Cooking Light to give you some gourmet options during this journey. I also started every morning with 2 poached eggs, plain yogurt, fresh fruit, and very brown nutty bread. It was amazing how much better I felt on those days vs the one day I had waffles.

The list of cost/benefits was amazing. Thank you all for the list. I know many of those answers would have been mine.

So, today, I am re-committing to my goals (30 pounds with 15 pounds off by December 31, running again, and a spa day as a reward). I am also recommitting myself to my Arbonne business and will make a real effort to make it to Phoenix. I owe it to myself and to my family and to my team.

Looking forward to tomorrow night. Love to you all! Tee
