Lessons Learned
Finally, I am losing weight and taking control of my life. How? Weight Watchers, a treadmill, evil pictures, mirrors and common sense!
If I'm not tracking my food then I'm not on WW. So I am tracking and learning what works and what doesn't. What doesn't work? Sugar. New rule- eat the required fruits and vegetables and get enough liquids, then have a serving of a sweet, if I'm hungry. Common sense (and very French!)
Thanks to Cara and Donnie for the treadmill. It is self-powered and taking up much of the living room.
Evil pictures- the ones my mother took on vacation. I am BIG.
Mirrors- to be well-dressed one needs a full-length mirror. See what I actually look like. Elizabeth Taylor said when she was too fat she only looked in small mirrors that only showed her face.
Common sense- If you keep doing what you've done, you'll keep getting the same results. True. So I am changing what I do- what I eat and how much I move.
and be positive!

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas from Western Pennsylvania! I took Amtrak home this year. After a thirty hour trip I had a three hour break before a 10 and 1/2 hour trip. Chicago was sooooooo cold! I return on January 1st and 2nd and 3rd! lol
My mother and brothers are doing quite well. The only sad part- my ex-sister-in-law won't allow my nephews to see their dad (child support issues where she is in the wrong right now.)
I'll post more later but I wanted to get out the message that I am alive and well.
Nanna, my dear dog, is in Texas under the excellent care and love of her Aunt Cara. I never knew I could miss a dog so much or have a friend as precious to me as Cara. (Love you girlfriend!)
