Part of my willingness to eat right on a consistent basis has to do with allowing myself small, controlled amounts of treats every day. M&M's are one -- but I limit myself to 10. Cheetos are another. I typically only have one or two treats in a single day. This way I feel like I'm enjoying life and foods, and can sustain the changes I've made in my diet forever rather than just for a short period of time. And I adore Zone bars, thanks for leaving me yours! They work great as a bridge between meals, and have just the right proportion of protein and carbs so that I don't jack up then crash on sugar, but keep my insulin nice and even. Be sure and let me know how the "lose 10 pounds" goal is coming along! And thanks for reading and commenting. Good for you, you can totally achieve this goal!

Mary Beth Conley (local TV personality in Memphis) announced on TV that she would do this! So I decided that if she can do it, I can also! Now--I can't be as disciplined as my SKINNY and beautiful daughter-in-law, but I believe I can lose 10 lbs! (However, I may have to wait a while for the Cheetos--maybe a reward or something?). I did actually keep a few of those Zone bars for myself--'cause I really like them! I am determined to lose 10 lbs by Christmas!
