This is my challenge: Finding time to eat, let alone eat right on my busy days. I am a massage therapist, and my clients are scheduled 1/2 hour apart. That doesn't really give me the time between to eat a good lunch. By the time they get off the table, I chat w/them, change and clean up for the next client, I can usually swill a drink down and take a deep breath before the next client arrives.

So far, I have been able to give myself a hour break at lunch, and brought snacks to the office, but the receptionist booked me full on from 11:30 right thru til 4 with my first hour break then my last client at 5.

I have already eaten breakfast, will walk on the ski machine for a bit, and make a smoothie for a snack, but it looks like lunch will be at 4 pm. Which then means I will be hungry for a meal not a snack by 8.

Any suggestions or ideas? Other than just blocking that time in my schedule book so it DOESNT get booked? LOL! Which I hate to do as well, my business has slowed down the last couple of months, so have to take them when they book'em. :)

Love and Laughter,
Dawn

The baby J

Well my first blog so I have lots of good intentions about losing weight but I have a hard time following through, although I have made a major accomplishment, about 2 yrs ago i weighted roughly 250 lbs and I lost it by doing the slim fast diet and I've actually to my amazement kept the weight off. So I think that will be my game plan to do slim fast again. Its easy for me to do b/c I am the only one in my household so I don't have to worry about having all those temptations in the house for other people!! I am excited that my family and I have decided to jump into this whole heartedly I can't wait to see the outcome, the new sexier divas, because we are already sexy!!!

Our Essay-Our Motivations

The 3 of us have always battled with our weight over the years. Food has always just been a way of enjoying life. Food meant happier times so when things weren’t always so happy we would naturally seek out what made us feel better.
We are all at different stages in our lives, but it seems like we all want to and are ready to lose weight.
Growing up, one of the things we used to be called was Crisco-Fat in the can. We decided to name our challenge- No more Crisco, no more fat in the can. We laughed when we named it, but I think beyond the humor of it, we are going to be shedding any of the hurts and emotions that came along with being overweight and I think that is why our team SHOULD win-we are going to change from the inside - out!

Dawn-eldest child-I have always been overweight. The last time I weighed 120 lbs was in 6^th grade. The reason I think that we should win this challenge is because I am ready to face WHY and take the necessary steps to make the changes in my diet-spiritual, emotional and physical. My motivation is to be healthier, to get off of insulin, to lose the belly fat and thereby take pressure off of my low back. I had a car accident 2 years ago that resulted in back surgery and it’s been a long recovery and I have come a long way, but I feel that my excess weight does hold me back from complete healing.

Carol-middle child-Typical yo yo dieting and some health issues on top of that definitely affected my metabolism. I have a wonderful husband who is a soldier in the army and a 18 year old and they are my main motivations. I enjoy living life and I approach everything with enthusiasm. My main hobby right now is my mini cooper and losing weight will make my adventures easier and fun as my health will be improved with the weight loss.

Jessie-youngest child-Actually, I grew up not really having a weight problem. I was pretty slender right up until after my marriage. Once the weight came on, it has been difficult to take off and keep off. Yo Yo dieting and exercising. My motivation to lose weight is to look and feel better.

Our plan: Plan, Move, Motivate and Accountability. Watch us and see!
