http://wee.fm/8ja1 Another Great Post What To Eat To Lose Weight Fast…But Safe! by @kingcash thanks for sharing!

i’m going to start off with a few goals every week. they will most likely be small for a while, and relatively easy for most people but will be a challenge for me. so here we go!

6/13-6/19

1. drink four glasses of water a day (try to drink water with breakfast and dinner).

2. only have one mountain dew a day (lunch).

3. exercise three times this week. this can be swimming, pool volleyball, walking the dog, etc.

three, i think, is enough for the first week. :)

Will Eating Whole Grains Help You Live Longer?:

A headline-grabbing study just hit the press, and on the surface, it looks like a home run for team Healthy Whole Grain. This chunk of research – officially titled “Dietary Fiber Intake and Mortality in the NIH-AARP Diet and Health Study” – followed a pool of over half a million adults and found that, across the board, the folks eating the most fiber had lower rates of death from almost every disease. But here’s the kicker: The only fiber that seemed to boost health was the kind from grains. Not veggie fiber. Not fruit fiber. Just grains, grains, grains.

I enjoy going for early afternoon runs (: They make me feel awesome for the rest of the day. I love it.

Here’s the thing. I’m not trying to “diet.” I’m trying to find a balance where I can lose some weight (however slowly) in the short term, and that I can carry with me into the long term so that I can enjoy life, enjoy food, enjoy socializing, and be healthy.

But I feel like I’m stuck in this cycle of climbing on and off some “regiment,” and I can’t seem to get to a place where I don’t feel like I’m over-correcting from one extreme to the other. I want to shake out and land in the middle.

Friday during the day was so good. I was eating right. I felt healthy. I was proud of myself. I had prepared on Thursday night and had good food to choose from. Awesome. I even went to lunch with a friend and had a coffee because I had already had my salad at my desk. Someone give me a friggin medal.

And I went out Friday night, but I sipped my drinks (sip sip sip) and managed to stay within a reasonable points value for a Friday night. And that was fine.

But Saturday morning rolls around, Damon suggests we go to brunch … and while I do order fruit instead of hashbrowns, I also eat more omelet and toast than I really need. And dinner that night — chorizo and eggs — isn’t particularly healthy, in spite of the fact that I tried to stuff as much swiss chard into the eggs as possible.

But I’m still within the right range, and I think I’m going to get up Sunday morning and go to the gym and everything will be ok. But somehow I snooze my way out of a trip to the gym, and then graze on wine and food all day at a BBQ. By the time I got home, I just felt uncomfortably full and unpleasant, and like I had undone all of the previous good.

So now today, I’m like “focus, game face,” but I know that the other extreme isn’t really the solution either.

I’ve lost weight before. I know it’s possible. But I’m really struggling this time. And I don’t know what to do to stop the cycle and get to the balance that I really need.

Any words of wisdom from the universe?
