It's not like popping on a patch to stop smoking...wish they had a "do not eat Patch."LOL The closest I come to not eating is when I am scared(worried). I am always trying to stop eating sugars. It's on again , off again.

Wow, have I learned a lot! What a great book, probably the best I have ever read, and I have read tons of diet and food books over my 40 years on this planet. I even recommended this book to my mom, who has fought with weight issues her whole life. But she doesn't read. And I said to her even if you only read Chapter 4 of the book, please do. As it explains why we do what we do with food, and why so many things seem to consume us. But my favorite quote of that book, that really sums it all up, and I'm paraphrasing, but "Every thing you eat is either making you more healthy or less healthy." No truer words have ever been spoken about food!Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10264011735420763054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220470666707560125.post-36488659132230632202014-03-19T14:05:54.256-05:002014-03-19T14:05:54.256-05:00Well, I'm living proof that you can do it for ...Well, I'm living proof that you can do it for at least 22 days. : -)Jayme Goffin, The Coop Keeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16760868033826492236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220470666707560125.post-66230046893792926472014-03-19T14:05:24.758-05:002014-03-19T14:05:24.758-05:00Debra - thanks so much for responding - I always a...Debra - thanks so much for responding - I always appreciate your input! I think I'm past the whole weight issue - it's really just about feeling good and functioning at the level I want. I just know I can't do it with donuts. : -) I eat carbs liberally - fruit, sweet potatoes and gobs of veggies.

You live life very powerfully in everything you do, I get it. I understand the sugar issue for you really seems to send you off on a binge, or so it seems. Sure day 23 and you crashed and what sounds like burned?? More than the Starbucks? Well, I think from reading again your previous post and now this one, it seems it is a metabolic issue for sure for you. If this is the case, then do what you have to do. I get that weight has been an issue most your life and that you feel you need to keep it (everyday) in check like an addict. Ok, but everyone's metabolism is different. Was just watching Rachael Ray show this am, um well, interesting study, check it out....<br /><br />http://www.rachaelrayshow.com/lifestyle/health/17617_Are_Doughnuts_the_Answer_to_Your_Diet/index.html<br /><br />This whole diet/ lifestyle is so overwhelming to me at least. Our bodies need protein, some fat and even carbs...but at what levels and for you and I it might be different levels... Ugh! Alls I know for me is, I always had an average overall weight, only really gaining through pregnancies and was able to lose..through chasing with four kids. Now I am madder than H, that because of hormone flex I am not burning my calories like the old days... So dam frustrating!!! Good luck Jaymes. For me I am about ready to seek help from a nutritionist? LOST....Ugh!<br /><br />DebraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220470666707560125.post-42526233444700099682014-03-19T13:31:27.655-05:002014-03-19T13:31:27.655-05:00An awesome post- and I applaud you for your honest...An awesome post- and I applaud you for your honesty and candor!

That being said, I can do ANYTHING for 30 days. I think. :)Three Birds Inspiredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10462935193167668508noreply@blogger.com
