THE GREATEST GIFT YOU GIVE ANOTHER IS HAVING YOUR OWN LIFE WORK The fast went well and is something I chose to do to gain some perspective about detaching from sugary food. When the decadent chocolate cake arrived at my doorstep Saturday night because I asked for it, I knew I needed to feel differently about these types of foods. Since January 1, 2010 I have been striving for balance and consistency and know this is key for me to to live the life I want to live. My life change preceded by a sense of loss that I was somehow depriving myself from the sugar that had been so much a huge part of my life and food addiction. Letting go and detaching from habits that are no longer appropriate is less of a struggle now because I now focus on what I want. I am changing my thoughts to create for me what I want which is the greatest gift I can give another. HAVING MY OWN LIFE WORK! NOW, I am able to look at that double chocolate Devil's Food Cake with orange cream cheese frosting straight on and not feel tempted to over eat it because too much of a good thing is not helping me with the way I want to feel. Yes, I can have my cake and eat it too. TOWANDA!!

Hey girl, you go!!! I cannot fast. I may get to about 2 pm and am so hungry I ruin it all. I'm better to eat less, but eat. Not a good idea to have coffee when on a fast. Coffee is very acidic and probably does more harm to your stomach than good for the body. Water was a good choice. I LOVE THE PHOTO. I have got to figure how to do this. Some suggested photo bucket, but now even sure how to do that. One of these days I will experiment and see what I can do. By the way, you look great in that pic. TOWANDA TO YOU!!

If the math adds, up you can not only have your cake and eat it too, you can have anything else as well. Great post Lisa, Towanda!

Having your cake and eating it too! How wonderful. I admire you for doing that fast and getting through it. One of these days I just may try one myself. Have a great day Lisa and thanks for your wonderful words of wisdom.
