{this is how I used to eat}

I wasn't always heavy.

In fact I used to be really slim....

I never dieted and I hardly ever exercised...

I was really skinny...and I loved it...

This article really sums up how I used to approach food. I ALWAYS listened to my stomach and I ALWAYS left food on my plate. I never really thought about it until I was trying to figure out how it happened that I woke up one day and realized I had a 100 lbs to lose. Part of living more mindfully is listening to my body again and giving it what it wants. The need for exercise is also important and I don't want to go back to having no muscle tone but the bigger issue for me right now is calories consumed.

Hi! I'm Mary. I am 33 and momma of two boys (8 & 3) and one girl (7). My college sweetheart and I have been in love for 15 years and married 12. We just moved and are finding our way in a new state, home, & job. Join me as I ramble on...

i'm melissa, i like not to use the shift key, i can't explain why. i'm 35, mother to a 1st grade sweet pea and a little man in his last year before the big K. my husband and i have been together 11 years, married 9 of them. our son had pediatric cancer, twice. he is over one year off treatment and we are still finding our way in the aftermath. we struggle, mary and i, and we won't hide that here, but we hope to also celebrate plenty as well.
