For those of you who know me very well, my name is Cara Symonds Reinelt
and for those of you who know me better than most, my name is Cara Simpson Symonds Simpson Reinelt (there is a story behind that, and- no it does not involve the law).
I like food.
A LOT
If I have a good day- I'll treat myself to something sweet because I've earned it.
If I have a bad day- I'll have some unhealthy (but very tasty) comfort food and then I'll have something sweet because I've earned it.
My favorite is any simple carbohydrate of any kind. If I could have a sandwich made of potato, rice, bread and pasta with a side order of popcorn...it would be a perfect day, and that would deserve another treat!!
Most days I make the best possible choice, but others....not so much.
The Result shows on the scale.....
'nuf said.
Another thing about me...
I don't usually like drawing very personal attention to myself.
So this is how it's going to go...
ME?
I've decided to work really hard to not eat my potato, rice, pasta and popcorn sandwiches and make some serious changes. After reading The Kind Diet by Alicia Silverstone, I think I can do some serious damage to the produce section of my local grocery store(popcorn is a vegetable right?). I will do my very best to get to the gym regularly, and I have recently held a Starbucks intervention on myself (on our trip to Seattle last weekend, I saw the very first Starbucks ever. After seriously considering waiting in line, I realized that I need help).
This won't be easy.
YOU?
you won't mention any thing about it.
Just knowing that you know will be enough.
So there you go. I've decided to make some serious changes, hopefully drop a few pounds and swear off simple sugars and starch.
Although I don't think that's the only swearing I'll be doing.
