GOOD MORNING FAT SECRET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GOOD MORNING FAMILY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I say this because we are a family of different races, religions, origins, languages and believes but we all came here with one thing in mind and that is to loose weight. (Can I get an Amen from the group today! If you don't want to say Amen, then give me a "That's the fact JACK")

Christmas is now in the review mirror of our weight loss journey and we are driving onto the on ramp of the highway "2016". Some will continue on the highway to reach the final destination of their weight loss goal. Some will take the next exit and head in another direction. That's fine because they know they can always do a U-turn and get back on the highway with the family driving in this caravan to weight loss.

Anyone looking at my weight history on this site can see I have dropped out for awhile and my current weight shows the error of my ways. I like a lot of others here dropped the bad habits and sugar for awhile. I admit I ate some junk food I had not eaten in years and slid right off into an oil slick of fat but I am gaining traction again and I am back into the slow lane of this highway of weight loss.

I am leaving the fat behind in my review mirror and driving into the rising sun of weight loss in the horizon of 2016.

I woke up this morning with a Feng Shui practice on my mind:

"Get rid of the things that no longer serve you"

I guess you could say I took those words literally, because I went into my kitchen and filled up a trash bag of things that DO NOT serve me and my weight loss goals. I took all the baking sheets, mixers, cake pans and packed them all way as sweets are my down fall. (NO need to through out cake mixes, baking chocolate, or any other ingredients to make sweet treats as I baked everything and gave it all away to local charities for Christmas.) I then proceeded to the refrigerator and threw out all containers with only 1/4 of a product left in it. You know what I mean that bottle of salad dressing that you stopped using, because you found something you liked better. That bottle of ketchup that has been in your refrigerator for the last 7 months that was left over after a summer cook out. Some of us have things in the refrigerator in containers that you can't even recognize anymore. I gave the refrigerator a deep cleaning surprised it only took me 15 minutes to get rid of everything and scrub it out so it's now empty but baking soda clean. (Smile) No I have 4 days to fill it up with healthy and nutrient laden foods that can assist me on my weight loss journey.

Feng Shui principle #2
"Get rid of anything that is almost gone, broken or damaged as it shows lack."

I purchased a new printer for myself for Christmas as my old printer decided to cross over to the electronic grave yard in November. I tossed it out a few minutes ago and just watched the recycling truck take it away.

By the way if you have a cellphone that you are no longer in need of because you either received a new phone or purchased a new phone consider giving to Cell Phones for Soldiers. Click on the link below:

Now, I have also given you a charitable idea to go forward into 2016 and still sharing the Christmas spirit with someone who could use our emotional support and the support of their family. Please go to the website and read the information for yourself.

Next on the agenda for today clean sweep project:
I went from room to room with a trash bag tossing everything that had accumulated over the last year that no longer served me.

Those magazines that I never got around to reading, I packed them all in a box and will take them to a local nursing home as they are always wanting reading material for the elderly patients that like to read. (Yes, Virgina people still like to read and hold a book or magazine in their hands.)

I also have a tradition with my son for every new thing you received for Christmas you have to get rid of three old items.

Example:

A new video game = 3 video games that he has to trade into game stop
New Clothing= 3 articles of clothing in good condition that has not been worn within the last year. Packed up and donated to either the Salvation Army or Goodwill on Monday morning.
New Cooking Utensil= 2 utensils that are no longer needed but are in good condition. I donate to the local church bazaar for their annual fundrasing drive. (No clutter in the garage.)

New Toys= Old toys that are in good condition and working are taken to a local day care they are always willing to take toys to keep kids entertained.

New Books= Old books donated to local library for literacy programs.

Remember you can always help someone else and this helps keep you motivated. My mother raised us that "Charity begins at home and it starts with you."

"Be the change you wish to see in this world"
-Gandhi
