Willpower…
I’m very proud of myself today. I’ve been in a bit of a funk, even gaining a pound this week for weigh in… :( So I was at Wal-Mart this afternoon, and went down the diet/supplement aisle…..actually picked up a box of Slim Quick…….almost put it in the cart……then somewhere in my head I heard “YOU MORON!!!! PUT THAT BACK THIS MINUTE!!!!!!” So I did….
I have to realize I have to be the one to make this happen….not a pill in a box. I do Slim-Fast shakes sometimes when I’m busy for breakfast, but those help me get in some good vitamins and nutrients in a hurry. The pills will probably make me feel sick. I know with proper eating and moving my darn butt, I’ll make this happen. I’ve done it before, but I’m just feeling down about it lately.
Tomorrow I’ll really get in some moving….We are having the 4th annual Erin’s W.I.N.G.S 5k walk/run in the a.m. in honor of my late niece. I’ll be walking again….maybe next year, for her, I’ll try to run (or jog, 
lol!! )
The pedometer has been a faithful companion on my hip lately, and it does really help keep me in check with how much I’m moving.
Have a great weekend everyone, and thanks for listening!!
Slim quick is fine sometimes as a substitute but of course solid food is better. That walk will be a good kick start.
I am very glad you put that slim quick back on the shelf. You know there is no magic pill. Its gonna take hard work and eating healthy and that’s it but like I said you know that. Oh yeah and coming on here to read our blogs and post you own is always helpful and rewarding:) Have a great weekend.
I have use Slim Quick once in a while but I always end up eating. It’s good to have just in case you don’t have food and you are hungry. Always keep some at my desk until now. BUT only as a supplement and nothing more.
Great will power! You will kick that lb out the door in no time hon!
I should note, I have not have one in over 10 months.
You are doing great Trish. I know you have it in you to keep going without the hinderance of a pill…you don’t need it! You go girl!
