New Name

I thought of a new name for the support group I went to lead. NA, I could also call it NAS.
So and a stands for nutrition awareness, NAS would be nutrition awareness support. I think this will sound so much better when you say I have my NAS group tonight. When people ask you if you would like a piece of cake any say uuummmm NA it will remind you of your support group and that we are all behind you.

I guess I want to have a name for my group that you're not embarrassed to say but it gives it real meaning so NA it is. I do have to teach my Dragon that may is really NA.

We will still be chatting the fat at our NA group. I think I have written before that the reason I use the word chat the fat is because it's something my grandmother used to say. She listed in a manner of you would chat the fat chat over what is deeply bothering you or just slightly shoot the breeze. It is kind of a anything goes what's on your mind type of an expression.

In our NA group this is what we want to do. We want to talk about what prevents us from our goals, what's weighing us down, what's just on our minds, what we just need to get off our chest. When you think back to how we learn things sometimes saying it out loud makes it a little bit more controllable. In class we talk about every morning you should get up and three times you say "I am a healthy eater". Why do we want to say this three times? The first time you tell yourself the second time you reassure yourself and the third time you say proudly.

Well I am off to work for another busy day with one less thing on my mind, NA I do like that name. NAS would be a good name if I wanted a bunch of people to accidentally come to my blog but that is not the purpose of this blog. The purpose is nutrition awareness. The goal of our group is to support those that truly want support for what they believe, that you can eat healthy in today's world.

My best to you Lynn

Me and my Fat Fighting Friends 10-1-13 week 1

This started with a pack of 10 for $10.00 rice mix.  I added some ground turkey I browned off the other day and then froze.  I added some veggies I had in the freezer.  Dear husband enjoyed it right out of the pan.  I put it on some of the new baby greens.


So tell me how this sounds for a quick dinner.






This was lunch.  Yes I use the big bowl.  I put salsa on for dressing.  Remember to weigh or measure your cheese.

I am happy to report I did get those 10,000 steps in.
