Guest guest Posted December 12, 2005 Report Share Posted December 12, 2005 You're sweet to ask! I've been working out as consistently as I can, even though I've missed several cardio workouts over the past ten days. This time of year is really difficult, and I'm sure you know what I mean. I've been trying to introduce small changes in things, because if I try to do it all at once, its a total disaster. My husband thought I was being obsessive compulsive about the meal thing because he can't relate to six small meals at all. So, I think Ive got the workout schedule worked out pretty well, but the meal thing is harder. Trying to change a family is quite hard work, especially if they complain. I feel like a meany if I'm taking way things like ice cream. My 7 year old complained that she hadn't had ice cream in FOUR days! Oh my, the HORROR! I almost wish the holidays were over already, so I can get some balance back into my (and my families) schedule. I wish you a warm and wonderful holiday. Makenna Hi there, You've been on my mind. How are the workouts going? Are you eating clean? ~ Those who dance are often thought insane by those who can't hear the music. Anon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 12, 2005 Report Share Posted December 12, 2005 Maybe instead of having everyone go cold turkey you can introduce things like rice dream into their lives or some other natural fruit ice cream. I've been know to make my own with fresh fruit. There are lots of healthy alternatives for snacking children, but if they aren't used to eating this way, the path to least resisitance will involve slowly taking the bad things out while slowly introducing the new things. Glad you haven't given up! Later! ~ Those who dance are often thought insane by those who can't hear the music. Anon Re: Makenna? You're sweet to ask!
