Your journey toward optimal health
Saturday
Though your journey toward Optimal Health may begin with weight loss or losing unhealthy habits, you will likely soon realize that creating health is more about what you gain rather than what you lose. Sure, losing weight feels good, but what that accomplishment gives you is far more rewarding.
In losing weight or unhealthy habits, you regain control of your destiny. You can be more active. You can spend more time with your family. You can recapture your self-confidence. You can unlock a vibrant new lifestyle. Ultimately, what you gain is more meaningful time to spend with the ones that you love.
Being proactive about your health leads to far more rewards than being reactive, which is the basis of the Optimal Health mindset. How you frame this in your mind is important. Rather than thinking about losing weight or what unhealthy habits could negatively mean for your life, think instead about what you will gain. Since you know that your mental health is intertwined with your physical health, you can focus on all of the great things you will be able to do and experience with a greater mental presence.
Don’t think about losing weight. Think about gaining confidence and health. Don’t think about being afraid of disease. Think about adding more wonderful memories to your life. You can create new memories with the people you love. You can enjoy more of the activities that leave you feeling fulfilled. You can savor a more vibrant lifestyle. Optimal Health is truly about growth. In the long term, what you gain can be far more meaningful than what you lose.

Heaven in a Brownie Tray - medifast treat
Ingredients:
1 Medifast Brownie Mix
3 tbsp water
1 wedge Laughing Cow Light cream cheese
2 tbsp PB2 Peanut butter powder
1 tbsp water
Mix the brownie mix with 3 tbsp water. Microwave 1 minute 30 seconds. Cut one wedge of Laughing Cow Light cream cheese into small slices. Place cream cheese slices on top of baked brownie. Spread around lightly. (If you're too rough, the brownie will pull up instead of the cream cheese spreading). In a small bowl, mix together 2 tbsp PB2 peanut butter powder with 1 tbsp of water. Adjust water to your desired consistancy. Spread the peanut butter over the cream cheese layer. The result can either be eaten warm, or frozen first.

New beginnings - again :)
I have been in diet limbo - losing and gaining.... and losing and gaining.
I was invited to participate in a Weight Loss Research study and they would pay!! I did all the medical work ups and got a clean bill of health! Great news.
The study involved three groups, a weight loss group low calorie, a weight loss group low calorie extra protein and the control group.
Guess which group I got picked for???? Yup you got it - the control group - which means I have to go through all the future medically testing along the way, eat the pre packaged food and NOT lose any weight - you are not allowed to lose weight when you are in the control group.
That is the bad news. I did get $100 for doing the testing and getting qualified. I decided I did not want to be in the control group for a year - have to go to the meetings, testing and diet food
The good news is that I can still do the weight loss portion on my own. They use the Medifast products in the study and they say the get great results.
So that is the new path I am on. Starting again :)
