lately, i've been backsliding badly. need to spend some time GAL-ing. it will be somewhat of a challenge.
this weekend, i will do some baking. it's therapy for me. making goodies for my nieces. they enjoy my baked goods so i will make them some treats for their school lunches. my sister/their mom is not the best baker - i remember when she tried to make banana bread once the outside was burnt and the middle was raw. yuck.
there is a recipe for strawberry cheesecake cupcakes that i've been dying to try. i may attempt that this weekend too.
my friend marvin told me about positive thinking and changing your belief systems. he told me to give it a try. believe that it can be done. otherwise, if you believe in doom and gloom, that's what you'll get.
it will be okay. i'll fit in some strength training and squash. must maintain this girlish figure.
i don't know who follows my thread. but looking at the views, i can tell that others do read it - even if they don't post.
if that is the case, i want you to know that it's so important to take care of yourself. i know many have lost weight during the process due to the "devastation diet" and think it's great. i'm here to tell you that it's not great.
when you lose weight so drastically that way, it wreaks havoc on your organ function and weakens the immune system. just because you can't see them deteriorating, it doesn't mean that it's not happening. if you can feel the effect, then it's already too late.
do me a favor and take care of yourself. eat properly, take a multivitamin if you have to, get out there and move, sleep, and smile.
