01/14/2009: "Boy You Should Know I've Got You On My Mind #4"

I ate the last two pieces of fudge this morning after my toast and butter. The fudge was the last of the goodies from us finally celebrating Christmas on the 10th. The kids decided that I should make the cookies and fudge because they were gonna get serious after the holidays. I gave away most of it but still had a few cookies and the fudge left yesterday. I finished it off without too much guilt and now I'm ready to loose my 40 pound belly..
A good friend of mine, whose fighting for his life with cancer of the esophagus, told me if I expect to loose any weight I have to give up all animal products. No more butter, cheese, eggs, meat, etc. I keep believing that I can lose 40 pounds and not give it up but I keep stalling after the first 5 pounds. All I have to do is stop eating so much and don't buy crap, stay out of the aisles except the organic aisle, and just buy fresh food. There isn't any more holidays for awhile except Valentine's Day and since he's gone I don't have to have the guilt of eating chocolates. There's a few birthdays coming up but I think I'll look for a healthy reciepe for dessert.
I'm not buying any more butter, even though it's 3 for 5.00 this week, and no other animal products either and try it his way for awhile, so when it's gone, it's gone. I know Oprah & Bob Greene would tell me I have to feed my body every few hours but I think the only way I can do it is to eat practically nothing, and Let's All Dance.
