Guest guest Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 can I very gently request that we not use the word " nazi " facetiously? thanks,abbyIE since 11/08 Hi! Welcome! I love your spirit. We had a little reader back in kindergarten called " Fun with Dick and Jane " but your post made me think of " Fun with Flour and Butter " - what a nice thing to look forward to in a day! Good for you for daring to admit that you prefer white flour - I'm finally getting the health nazis out of my life and I stand with you on the whole wheat noodles issue. I also spent a long time doing exercise to lose weight. I paid a trainer because I'd never have gotten there on my own, and I hated every minute of it. Eventually I found excuses to not go. Last summer I went back to my real love: figure skating! The last time I skated regularly I was 30 pounds lighter. But I went back determined to do what I love even if I'm 62 and my thighs are flapping in the breeze while everyone around me is 16 and skinny. I'm loving it. I've made time in my week to go four mornings a week, but I also give myself permission at any time to not go if I'm tired or want the time for something else. My doctor, who urged me to lose weight, said scornfully, " You'll never lose any weight skating! " I don't care - I can feel my body getting stronger even while I'm having a blast. And I will never again exercise for weight loss. Best of luck in your IE journey! April Hi everyone! So glad to be here.I am sick of diets, workout plans that drive me nuts (and that I don't enjoy doing), counting calories, etc. I woke up this morning and told myself - no more. I made a plan last week that I was going to eat really natural and clean, and I was going to exercise 2 hours a day! I popped in the exercise video, and not only did my knees scream in agony, I wanted to throw the tv out the window. The workout instructor was so annoying, I couldn't take it. Here I thought I'd never get a decent workout unless I did something like this. Was I ever wrong!Exercise today consisted of a long walk. Okay, maybe that long walk won't make me look like those people advertised in the workout videos, but I don't care. It's peaceful and fun, and I like it. Furthermore, I'm so done with worrying about what foods I'm going to eat next. If I just take the time and closely listen to my body, it will tell me what it wants. For example, today I craved a chocolate chip bagel with butter. I had it, ate half (that's all I needed) and was happy. Later I had a big bowl of fresh fruit because that's what I wanted. I'm in the process of making homemade dinner rolls to go with a hearty homemade chicken soup. The best part, I'm not sitting here worrying about the white flour and sugar I used in the rolls, or the noodles I used in the soup. No I did not substitute whole grain flour (I hate whole wheat products to begin with) and yes I did use full fat butter and milk :)Anyways, I look forward to meeting everyone ------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
