Help me win

I got this idea from one of my new readers Claire, who said to me in an email that if public votes are needed for The Slimmer of the Year competition she wanted me to let her know.

Well, public votes aren't really part of it, but they do say at the end of the application that if there is anything we want to add we can attach additional pages.

I don't normally seek out compliments, but I would do anything to win this award, so here is my idea, in the comment section of this entry please finish the following sentence:

I think ms. ralph should win The Weight Watcher's Slimmer of The Year award because ________________.

If you don't want to share it here in the comment section, you can email it to me at suckingitin at gmail dot com, and if you need some time to think it over, I will be moving a link to this entry to the right side-bar up until I have placed my entry.

Thanks for your help.

...because not only has she shown a steadfast resolve to adopt a healthy lifestyle, but she has inspired others to follow in her footsteps. Mrs. Ralph has shared her journey with friends, co-workers, and strangers. In sharing her journey she has no doubt set others on the path to success. Her committment to being her personal best has enabled her to not only slim down, but change her life and the lives of those around her.

... because she has been such an inspiration to me -- she has been honest about the reality of losing weight, both the ups and the downs, and I have taken comfort and wisdom from it. And, I'm amazed that she is able to maintain an active social life, work schedule, and home life and still find time to focus on weight and excersize -- it gives me hope!

I think ms. ralph should win The Weight Watcher's Slimmer of The Year award because not only has she lost an amazing amount of weight, but in her doing so, she has managed to change her life style, thus making sure she will keep this weight off, and most importantly, for her determination to go public about it in her weight loss journal, and give inspiration to so many other people, me included. Not to mention she is gorgeous inside and out too!!!

(now you got to correct my syntax and grammar to post this in WW...lol)

A trip down memory lane

Hello to all of you all of you coming via Michele , thanks for stopping by and I only hope it was worth the trip over. I began reading through the questions on the Slimmer of The Year application today. Of course there are so many things I want to include, but I can't possibly write everything I want to or they will be getting a novel. When I started thinking of how long I have been overweight and the reasons I struggled for so long with food and weight issues a lot of memories came back to me. I've been challanged by my weight for most of my life. Granted some of that time I only thought I was fat when I really wasn't. The point is that I have been fat inside my head for as long as I can remember. One of the most shameful and embarrassing moments was when I was 15 and some of the boys in my class thought it was funny to sing "thunder, thunder, thunder thighs hooooooo!" when they saw me coming to the tune of the cartoon "Thunder Cats." That experie...

Life happens

I wish I could tell you guys that everything is on track and that the reason I have not been writing is because life has just been too good. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Winter is generally a crap time of year for me. I thought that this one I could get a handle on it and not have it get the best of me. I was wrong. Exercise? Who me? Eat healthy? Um no. Last night I wanted chips so mr. ralph went out at midnight and got us chips and dip and we sat in our pj's watching the England and Portugal quarter final stuffing our faces. Am I painting a pretty picture? For the most part I eat well. I do. I do not stock my house with these kinds of foods. I have learned that because I am an emotional eater, it is better if I don't. But mr. ralph is too easy. Where I won't go out and buy something at midnight, if I ask him too he will go for me. Yes, I do believe we are in a co-dependent relationship, even where food is concerned. We both eat when we feel emotional....

Unbelievable results

You may have noticed that I changed the 70 to the left to 71. I don't know how it happened, but I actually gained weight this week. What is happening to me? I don't know what is going on, but the scale did say 71 two days in a row. Yes, I am at the end of my TOM and that could contribute to some of it, but a whole kilo? I looked at my calorie count from this week and I went over 1500 only 2 days, Friday and Saturday. Although I did much better this weekend than last, I still struggled with eating more on my off days than during the week. Another reason I had a horrific week was the heat. We had 4 days of over 40C in a row. Now that is just wrong. I can't handle heat very well. I did go for a walk on Saturday and when I came home thought I was going to die from heat exhaustion. Not good at all. I almost declared this week a no-weigh week due to my TOM but have decided to take it as it comes. So I weigh 71 today. Excuse my language but that number really scares the ...
