Gun to your head

If someone held a gun to your head and said do not take another bite of that cake would you take another bite? No, because the consequence is significant enough to change your action. In reality, most of us that eat junk food are holding a gun to our heads. It has been proven that consuming junk food kills people. For most of us it just makes us fat and depressed...eventually sick, but by then we may be to fat to care.

Develop a sense of urgency to hate junk food. Go to war with it.
Step on it, smash it, spit on it, throw it, stab it! The sweet/salty taste is a trick to get someone rich while making you miserable!

Gun to your head

If someone held a gun to your head and said if you take one bite of that cake you will die. You would NOT take a bite! The point is you CAN stoy, given the right consequence (Joyce Meyers).

DEVELOP a sence of urgency with healthy eating and fitness.

Go to war with food and learn to HATE the options that are bad for you. Food manufactures are tricking you into to thinking you are "losing out" on something if you cant have it. Truth is your "gaining" a happy healthy life. The consequences (the gun) is fat, depressed, sickness, and death!
I would rather the gun....

LEARN TO HATE IT! Try smashing, throwing, stabbing the cake, cookie, chip, fry, start by taking it out of someones hand and stepping on it....trust me it feels so good!

Consequences to your actions

I feel like I have so little time to undo the damage I have done to my mind & body. I HAD so many negative consequences (my body showed me) from my actions e.g., short of breath, sick from overating, depression, discomfort, low self esteem, overall unhappiness.

Since I have changed so much e.g., no more smoking, overeating, binge drinking I feel so good, so much energy, feel so happy......but

I know how easy it is to slip back into old habits. So everyday I remind my self how far I have come and my body reminds me and rewards me everyday by looking good, performing well, giving me lots of energy, allowing me to take deep, deep breaths.... I have to keep remembering ALL the positive consequences my body is showing me now.

Weight stability (not getting crazy with sweet and salty foods) is our only fighting chance during the holidays. Eating is a coping mechanism (trying to treat stress and depression) just like binge drinking, REPLACE it, relieve stress by exercising, it really works, it helps calm you down AND makes you feel good about yourself. Starting an exercise program is the best gift you can give yourself this season.

Control

There is nothing more satisfying than being in total "control" of your mind & body. Once you tackle control over what your putting in your body and how you are  maintaining your fitness, it seems like nothing can bring you down. It is when you are "out of control" of your mind & body, nothing seems to go right.

Hunger Pains

To avoid getting off track, there are so many that want to sabotage your diet, eat food that fills you up (high fiber and proteins) AND eat every 3/4 hours (=5X/day) this way you have a defence against all the temptations. You will also maintain your insulin levels so that your bodies does not store the food as fat. Your mood will also be better.

I eat an apple with peanut butter before I go "out to eat" to ensure that I will not do anything stupid.

Realizing that life is a series of habits. Most of my habits where bad...Changing habits are easy. When I quit smoking I had to change the direction I drove home from work to avoid the locations where the cigs. were. Pick one habit and replace it with something different. Example: I used to overeat after work instead I walked my dog right after work. After about 30 days the old habit is just gone!

Day One

How lucky are we to have the ability to release our thoughts this way.

Let me start by introducing myself. My name is Shelly Kadilak. I am officially getting older, 38 and I am obsessed with living life better..

I started with kicking smoking which was the hardest thing I ever did. Then kicked over eating. I am finally skinny and pretty happy with life. In order to continue in this positive direction I need your help. So lets talk....
