Denise Avery, of Eastlake, turns 40 this year. That, combined with the motivation of participation in a contest, might be just what she's looking for in her weight-loss journey.

Don't sit back and watch as others do amazing things and accomplish things you think are impossible.  Be the one to do amazing things that others say you can't.  Anything is possible, get up, live your life!  Life is pretty amazing, so why not be a part of it!  Keep Fighting, Never Give Up & Believe in Yourself!

Stress

Stress - when you just want to give up and pig out on whatever you can get your hands on.  Stress - because it is there and it is hard to escape and no matter how hard you try you will be placed in a stressful situation and you need to reach deep down in you to STOP the cycle that started your binge eating - Today was one of those days I so far I am keeping strong - but I know I will not meet my calories because I will eat those healthy options but I just don't feel like eating too much! Deep breathes  - NEVER GIVE UP! KEEP FIGHTING! BELIEVE IN YOURSELF!

Ok... So I know how hard it is not to munch at night - cause you are sitting there watching your favorite tv show and you are not really paying attention to what you are doing.  Am I right?  Of course I am and I am guilty of doing it myself - So here it is ladies - okay and guys too.... Paint your NAILS - Sounds silly but think about it - do you want to touch anything much less any food while your nails are wet and drying - Not me!!! So the next time you reach for that bowl of popcorn... pull out the nail polish and paint away - Even clear works guys!  Change colors or give yourself a new topcoat every night! Keep Fighting, Never Give Up & Believe in Yourself!
