Not a great week for weight loss, but strangely not a bad one either. Another week where I was more or less flat. But this week it was pretty much due to a lack of exercise. Other than Monday, every night conspired to leave me no time for biking either on the stationary bike or outdoors. The week looked like a write-off entirely until today when after several days of weight increase, I suddenly ended back towards my low.

This weekend, we are taking the teen Bible Quiz Team to Lancaster, PA for the final meet of the year (Districts). I am taking this weekend as a "free weekend" where I can eat what I want (within reason, still no sugar). So I will likely be way up on Monday, but these weekends usually come off as quickly as they go on, if I return to the diet plan and get back onto the bike. We'll see how it goes.

I have never been able to stick to any eating plan, and had decided I was a hopeless foodaholic! I had ZERO self-control or willpower. When friends of ours called out of the blue one day, the subject of health came up. We discovered that the husband of the couple had lost 107 lbs in 7 months. Although I had no belief this program would work for me (I had just finished failing yet another plan) I thought I would give it a try...mainly to keep my story straight that "I have tried EVERYTHING!" In the first week, I lost 13 lbs...but more miraculous was...I was still doing it! I had never lasted a week doing ANYTHING before! 15 weeks later, I had lost 50 pounds and went from wearing size 20 to size 10.

When life coach RenEe Stephens was diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome after a lifetime of obsessive compulsive eating, she realized it was time to make some radical changes in her life.

Now, for the first time in print, Full-Filled shares the invaluable, breakthrough lessons she learned.
With a six-week program that yields insights every day of the journey, Full-Filled brings readers deep inside their relationship to eating, pinpoints trigger foods and situations, and develops a whole bag of tips, tricks, and self-awareness tools to uncover deeper emotional cravings and find better ways to satisfy their wants and needs without food.
