I always LOVE the background story. Th...Hi, Dan!! I always LOVE the background story. Thanks for sharing so openly. Yes, I can relate to the self-perpetuating cycle of failure : ( Also, the remark about being "somewhat uncomfortable in my own skin". Up until the birth of my second child, I was always an average to slender weight. But not in my head. <br /><br />In my head I was a fat blob. As a young teenager, I would fall asleep praying that God would make my thighs slenderer by morning. What misplaced focus...and what havoc it wreaked with my relationship with God, too ; )<br /><br />After the birth of my second child, I returned to my average to upper limit weight of 140. But within the past 14 years, I have gone up and down between there and 198 (I never allowed that 200 number to show on the scale). Your post gave me the kick in the rear I needed to revisit the Dr. Fuhrman website where I perused some old posts. In Feb. 2011 I weighed 158...was back on my way to healthy and then...well...that's just it...I don't really know what or why. I just know that this time I was back to 198 again before I got a grip. Sigh....<br /><br />But that was last week and this is now. Thanks to the miracle of seeing your link on Healthy Girl's Kitchen, what you wrote resonated at a deep level and I'm back on plan. Eating plant strong, walking, using my Pilates reformer and feeling like I'm coming back to the land of the living. But I will say this...I haven't bounced back as quickly as before. I'm not feeling great, yet. But better....<br /><br />Thanks again from the bottom of my heart. Looking forward to Part 2.<br /><br />If you would like me to post a link on Dr. F's member center, I'm sure there are many people who would love to follow your journey. Just say the word.<br /><br />Love, love, love, MarieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7307906919449246405.post-65775340190246636172012-10-27T02:27:35.352-04:002012-10-27T02:27:35.352-04:00I tried plant strong for a few years and kept over...I tried plant strong for a few years and kept overeating on plant based foods. Ugghhh! I really don't like to tell everyone I eat healthy but I'm fat. So I combined CEA HOW with plant strong and bingo! It seems to be working so far. What a relief and a blessing! If it doesn't work just going plant strong, you could consider this option. It's a great one!Livewellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12090639187876900365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7307906919449246405.post-68343681361053583272012-10-26T16:31:07.855-04:002012-10-26T16:31:07.855-04:00I'm enjoying reading your story, and looking f...I'm enjoying reading your story, and looking forward to the happy ending. I think every human being on the face of the earth can relate to your "self-perpetuating cycle of failure" in one way or another. I'd hate to admit how long ago I first happened upon this way of eating, and how many excuses there have been since then. So thanks for the encouragement....!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
