Writers, professionals and doers

I am going to blog tonight on this subject. I want to talk about the difference. Are you professionals teachers but not doers. How can they tell you to do this or do that and not do it themselves. If you follow the concepts you will be a doer.
Sometimes you need to take small steps and just answer the question of how dose this fit into the concepts. On a scale of 1-10. Think of how these foods rank of score and give them a number. Lets do deep fried mushrooms. How many concepts does it comply with. I would put them at a 4. If I was at a fair and haven't eaten anything deep fried in the past few months and it is a 1 time thing then I would eat it. Remember I am at 125 and trying to lose. If I was at 180 woman and was looking at corndog and a coke or deep fried mushrooms and a water, I would do the mushrooms, and enjoy the fair.
I personally would skip the deep fried anything and get the corn. We are in WI and I was faced with this last year and the thing we chose was the 3 for $5.00 grill cheese sandwiches. (statefair) I shared it with dear husband. We already had cream puff, ice cream and some other things. Check out all your choices. Look for those hanging fruit baskets. Don't be afraid to bring a couple of apples with. Hit the farmers strips and get some peaches of plums.
You don't have to count points of calories if you learn to think.

If you ever think there is no hope.

If you ever think there is no hope check out my facebook under lynn baumgartner. I work at a place that we have a garden. The weeds went wild after we put down some goat poop. OM weeds were everywhere. I thought about the whole thing, made a plan and everyday I just keep plugging along. Check out my pictures of the garden. The first pictures look like there is no hope, then you start to see some progress and then more. It is the same as changing habits. You do a little at a time and before you know it you get things under control and then all you have to do is maintain. We do know what happens when you turn your back on those weeds. They plot together to take back over. They are sneeky, before you know it you are back to square 1. So just as maintaining good health you can't turn your back on things. You have to keep on plan. You can follow the 80/20 rule.
I have to say things looked really hard and discouraging to start with but now that I am about 1/2 way done I am feeling great and am getting really excited about the whole thing. I could of used the rototiller but I wanted to get rid of the weeds not to cut them up so they could double in size. There are no short cuts. I have a goal and a drive.
Remember you can email me any time.
