Hunger is NOT an emergency!

Hunger is NOT an emergency! Hmm. I think that probably was one of the main reasons I got so fat. I never ever even gave my body a chance to be hungry. I was always eating even when I wasn’t hungry. Oh what a concept! I think sometimes I still fall in to that trap too often. It is meal time so I had better eat. Not a good pattern to fall in to.

Now I am not talking about getting hungry to the point that you are ready to chew someone’s arm off and can’t make a good food choice. That is to the other extreme.

It has amazed me this past week how little food I really do need to function. Not that I always enjoy so little food.  But I tend to eat too much. Now, I am not talking about eating so little that you body thinks you are starving and it stops burning fat. That isn’t good either. Like I said there are extremes. I am just saying a little hunger once in a while never hurt anyone.

OK Enough about that. Still going strong. The scales are not my friend right now. So I am just doing what I know I need to do. Roni & I have been corresponding and she thinks the new site could be up and running in a week or two. Obviously it wouldn’t be completed but it would be functioning. I am so excited!

I approached my sister about working on a cookbook together. (Love you Kerri!) I think we could do something really fun and exciting. So we will see where that goes. She is an awesome cook too! We had great teachers. Thanks Grandma & Mom!

I hope that everyone keeps plugging along. Let yourself feel a little hungry. If you haven’t felt it in a long time, I promise it won’t kill you. Before Weight Watchers, I tended to act like I might drop dead if I felt hungry. It really isn’t that scary. It isn’t that painful.

Hope you have a great day!
