Sheri’s Rants #25: Your Basic Chewing Out.

May 31, 2010 by

This morning I took  four dogs on a hike up a rocky winding trail.  For most of the hike, it was dry and steep and hot.  When I started thinking about turning around with the panting dogs, I made a decision to go just a bit further; I wasn’t crunched for time.  We climbed another […]

There’s a lengthy, predictable list of excuses that folks present to me about why they can’t do certain things regarding their self care.  Among them are genetics, low thyroid, too busy, and it takes too much attention.  Another myth is that a person can’t possibly travel or vacation and keep the self care up.  Below […]

After 17 weeks of fueling, I am finally in rotation!  I must admit that I do get hungry on my low calorie days.  I wake up hungry and can’t wait to eat.  I was hungry many times during fueling too, but not like this.  I had a “burning hunger” this morning so I think this […]
