Many people think of calories like money in the bank.
We get x number of calories a day to “spend”
(taking into account height/weight, age, gender & activity level).
Valuable little commodities to do with what you will.

Living the thin lifestyle, I also tend to think of calories
like having money in the bank,
and how I get to decide to spend those calories every day.

I track my calorie bank account with my computer software program.
It makes life a little more manageable,
and is extremely helpful for weight-loss and for weight maintenance.

We can also compare calories to money in the following way.

Recently I posted another video, Egg White Salad,
which is located at DietHobby, under RECIPES, MiniMeals.

This is a low-carb And reduced-fat And low-calorie recipe
that is surprisingly tasty.

It's Monday Again.

They come every week.
...right after Sunday

A new day.

A fresh start.

I am energized once again
to work at eating only the amount
that my body needs to maintain it's current weight
...or maybe to lose some of it.

Funny how that happens.

Commitment is sticking with something,
long after the mood you were in when you made it,
leaves you.

Commitment is what
transforms a promise into reality.

Words speak boldly of our intentions.
But our Actions speak far louder than our words.

Commitment
is making the time when there is none.
Performing the action when you’d rather not.
Coming through
time after time, after time, year after year, after year.

Commitment is the stuff character is made of;
it’s the power to change things.

It is the daily triumph of the positive over the negative...
….of Trust over doubt and fear.

Lacking Inspiration?

Me too !!!
There are days when I don't feel particularly inspired.
The main thing I have to say is
that I don't feel a need to say much today.

Is that a bad thing?
I don't think so.
