Taking Responsibility

As much as I've tried to avoid it, it's time for me to take responsibility for this weight and to do something about the food going into my mouth each day. It's easy to rationalize. We've sold our home, have everything in storage, and are living with my daughter and her family while we look for our next home.

We've moved from Florida to Georgia and aren't finished with the process. Isn't that a good reason to indulge my physical appetite? No. I came across another good reminder to pay attention to what I'm eathing at The Dabbling Mum Meets Life Head On Blog. Take a look.

It reminds me of the importance of checking lables. Know what you are eating. Where does sugar fall within the ingredients. If it's within the first three and you want to lose weight, avoid it. When it says enriched flour, it means the real nutrients have been stripped away. Look for healthy choices that really feed your body what it needs.
