Diet Buddies
About me:
I'm a 49 year old woman who is trying to lead a healthier lifestyle. I have been on this site since June of 2007. I lost a total of 30 pounds and over the last year have gained back 10. I would like to stop that upward spiral... once again... and get back down to my goal weight and KEEP it there. As I get older, with hormones fluctuating, this gets to be more and more of a challenge. I enjoy flower gardening, reading, 4-wheeling, camping, fishing.

MARCH OR DANCE
This is your life, you only get one chance.
So do you march, or will you learn to dance?
There is no refund if you make mistakes.
Just worms to tell you, "Buddy, them's the breaks."
Friend, will you trudge or twirl from birth to rest,
A follower, or with a new step blessed?
The pattern you'd create could die with you.
At death's door, looking back its loss you'd rue.
Now break your stride and learn to skip along.
Life isn't just a drum beat; it's a song.
'Til now you've never capered, pranced, or twirled?
There's time if you are yet within this world.

This is your life to get through, march or dance.
Your life, and you control it. What's your stance?

Who I hope to meet:
People who are also trying to eat healthier and who are upbeat and motivating.
Diet:
healthy whole foods as much as I can. Portion control.
Exercise:
Step aerobics and circuit training with free weights. Walk when I get the chance.

The good you do for others is good you do yourself...

~Norman Wesley Brooks

Change the changeable, accept the unchangeable, and remove yourself from the unacceptable.

~Denis Waitley

Associate yourself with men of good quality, if you esteem your own reputation; for it is better to be alone than in bad company.

~George Washington

All of the great achievers of the past have been visionary figures; they were men and women who projected into the future. They thought of what could be, rather than what already was, and then they moved themselves into action, to bring these things into fruition.

~Bob Proctor

If you have a great ambition, take as big a step as possible in the direction of fulfilling it. The step may only be a tiny one, but trust that it may be the largest one possible for now.

~Mildred Mcafee

He who would learn to fly one day must first learn to stand and walk and run and climb and dance; one cannot fly into flying.

~Friedrich Nietzsche

You can conquer almost any fear if you will make up your mind to do so. For remember, fear doesn't exist anywhere except in the mind.

~Dale Carnegie

A true friend knows your weaknesses but shows you your strengths; feels your fears but fortifies your faith; sees your anxieties but frees your spirit; recognizes your disabilities but emphasizes your possibilities.

~William Arthur Ward

Most people never run far enough on their first wind to find out if they've got a second. Give your dreams all you've got and you'll be amazed at the energy that comes out of you.

I will waste not even a precious second today in anger or hate or jealousy or selfishness. I know that the seeds I sow I will harvest, because every action, good or bad, is always followed by an equal reaction. I will plant only good seeds this day.

~Og Mandino

A day you waste is one you can never make up.

~George Allen

If you want to succeed you should strike out on new paths rather than travel the worn paths of accepted success.

~John D. Rockefeller

Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live.

~Norman Cousins

The soul is dyed the color of its thoughts. Think only on those things that are in line with your principles and can bear the light of day. The content of your character is your choice. Day by day, what you do is who you become.

~Heraclitus


It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.

~Charles Darwin

Dreams are renewable. No matter what our age or condition, there are still untapped possibilities within us and new beauty waiting to be born.

~Dale Turner

(Dream big dreams, then put on your overalls and go out and make the dreams come true.)
