Here’s a complete list of my fellow members:

I cannot tell you how excited I am to be a member of this new network. Personally, my membership will serve as motivation to focus on my own health and weight issues.

A few days ago, we arrived at the beach for a week of vacation. I cannot tell you how much we needed to get away and chill. As for my weight loss, I wish that I could report progress, but I haven’t been sticking to the 4 golden rules’ Why? I really don’t know, but the words ‘self sabotage’ come to mind.
Maybe it’s my general lack of focus on personal stuff, but I really haven’t been thinking all that much about losing weight or exercising. Instead, I’ve been busy with work stuff and family stuff. But, as usual, when I neglect my health, my work also suffers.
This morning, I woke up and did some stretching. We are about to head to the beach – and I hope to go for a long walk and burn a few calories. The weather here is awesome, so that makes getting outside and moving fun. Hopefully, this week away from ‘stuff’ will help me refocus and move forward.

After a month of starts and stops, I’m fully back on track with following the 4 Golden Rules. Having the baby was awesome, but it ‘through me off’ in terms of schedule and cooking and eating. But, we’ve finally adjusted to baby girl’s sleeping and eating routine and I’m ready to rock and roll.
I had a great time last week. I went on a weekend golf retreat with some buddies. I didn’t play all that well (I shot 89, 85, 82.) but I had an awesome time. Even though I haven’t spent a lot of time running, I still felt like I was in much better shape than the last time I went running.
Today, I had a sandwich and some chips for lunch. I ate slowly and I paid attention to my food. It feels good to be ‘fully committed’ again – and it feels even better to know that I’m moving forward.
By the way – I released a new episode of the No Credit Needed Podcast last night. Check it out!

This afternoon, I’m going to a two day golf retreat, with a friends church. I’m excited about dusting off the old clubs and playing. I went for a brisk walk this morning, and I just finished these stretches. I feel great, I’m down a few pounds, and I’ve learned how to quit obsessing about food (or dieting). All is good.
(I also need to hit the treadmill just a bit more.)

I woke up this morning and did some writing over at No Credit Needed. I’ve written an article about time management that you might like.
As I was writing the article, it hit me that I never wait until I’m in crisis mode to make financial decisions. No, I have plans in place for managing my money and my finances. But, when it comes to eating, I am almost always in ‘crisis mode’.
I usually eat – and then over eat – only when I am ‘hungry’. And, by hungry, I mean starving. So, I create this never-ending loop of starvation, gorging, starvation, gorging.
As hard as it is to admit, I haven’t done very well the past three weeks. I haven’t gained any weight, but I haven’t lost any either. And, I think that the main reason is that I went back to my old habits of trying to ‘diet’ – instead of following the 4 Golden Rules.
This morning, I sat down at the table, well before I actually ‘got hungry’ – and I ate a very small amount of food. Now, two hours later, I’m not quite ‘hungry’, but I know that I will be in just a little bit. So, I’m going to go ahead and eat, BEFORE I feel like I’m starving, and see how that works.
