I'd be reaching into my purse, searching, and not even realize what I was looking, then I'd realize I was looking for cigarette! Such a habit! <br /><br />I took up crochet and kept my hands busy all the time, it helped. Of course you might not find that too appealing... lol<br /><br />You'll get over the habit in time.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07797632287709387153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126474537687051974.post-88929017275096053772010-01-09T20:58:41.308-06:002010-01-09T20:58:41.308-06:00I just discovered your blog and I really am inspir...I just discovered your blog and I really am inspired by it!

It must be wonderful to have your mom with you like that! You're right that the nicotine addition isn't you biggest challenge anymore. Cigarettes are habitually more addictive than almost any other drug, legal or otherwise. Hang in there, you can definitely do it! You broke the hold morbid obesity had over you, can definitely take on a few measly cigarettes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126474537687051974.post-25072818421151756382010-01-09T19:58:50.655-06:002010-01-09T19:58:50.655-06:00I most certainly WILL eliminate all fast food from...I most certainly WILL eliminate all fast food from my life forever.

Life is not perfect and sometimes we have to eat fastfood to feel like "normal." Believe I tried the healthy eating--no sugar, breads or red meat for a year. Everything I put in my mouth was healthy. I went to the extreme, lost weight only to gain it back. I thought I had it under control, but it is all about balance. Now, I am trying to lose weight, but I am trying to be realistic about it. You are on the right path, and I pray that God will continue to use you to inspire the rest of us on this journey.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126474537687051974.post-18001923289172042532010-01-09T16:10:36.718-06:002010-01-09T16:10:36.718-06:00I'm going out on a dangerous limb here and wil...I'm going out on a dangerous limb here and will suggest that it is normal and even wise to be able to slowly integrate fast food offerings into your meal choices. We all know that they are generally not healthy, but they are a part of American life. It is unlikely we will eliminate them from our choices forever. Good for you to be able to choose wisely when you have few other meal choices.Big Clydehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11139621880727963169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126474537687051974.post-52112011444731103502010-01-09T16:03:07.839-06:002010-01-09T16:03:07.839-06:00Oh Sean, people do love you, and want you to be he...Oh Sean, people do love you, and want you to be healthy. :-)<br />But, that is one of the reasons I don't post my menu... I am not a "perfectly" healthy eater yet. I must keep it simple still. I AM working on making better, healthier nutritional choices, but I'm not there yet. I go thru phases, I guess.<br /><br />I totally get it when you talk about your calorie bank, and keeping it in line. And I remember your past post explaining that you are aware you need to work on the nutritional aspects of your choices, but just can't do it all at the same time YET. That's me, too, so I understand. You will get there. I will get there.<br /><br />In the meantime, it must be a cozy feeling to know so many people are rooting for you and wanting to offer kind suggestions to get you all healthi-fied. Progress, not perfection.<br />And you are making amazing progress!<br />Loretta<br />=^..^=Rettahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10034267067410245582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126474537687051974.post-52239482907457496092010-01-09T14:13:05.380-06:002010-01-09T14:13:05.380-06:00Have you tried those Kashi blackberry graham bars?...Have you tried those Kashi blackberry graham bars? Soooo good, easy, on-the-go food...breakfast, snack, dessert, etc. Only 110 calories, and if I remember correctly there's no HFCS in them either. On the mornings you're running late, you can grab one of those and a piece of fruit for breakfast. Easy, fast and healthy. :)Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09903038555489140718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126474537687051974.post-71834576907416215492010-01-09T13:20:27.584-06:002010-01-09T13:20:27.584-06:00Hey Sean, please think about giving up McDonald...Hey Sean, please think about giving up McDonald's all together. There is nothing there that is any good. All crap, garbage, yuck.<br /><br />If you're interested I would be pleased to tell you what is really in their food, and then I guarantee you wont go back.<br /><br />Looking good my friend.
