It's Stella Time Again


Good heavens, Christmas has been gone for about a week and I'm already having withdrawals!! lol The tree is still up and I suppose I'll have to get serious about taking everything down..sigh...Oh well, guess I can start planning for next December 25th...'ya think?

Are any of you having problems with "things disappearing" off your blog? My original clock dropped off the face of the earth so I had to find a new one. I like the new one though. It came from Clocklink. They've got some cute ones over there.
Ah, the end of holidays, for a while, and the beginning of the...diet. Hubby and I started George Stella's on Monday. I've already lost 3 and a quarter pounds. My goal is twenty. I'm sticking with it because it works...for us. The trick is eating sensibly, once the initial 2 week fast start is over. ALL the time!! Gotta get the body to burning instead of storing. If you want to check him out, here's his link: George Stella .
Well, the phones are definitely quieter today. The mad rush was last week and Monday. It's always like this after a holiday. There were lots of stop-ups though. So...have a fun and safe day and smile a lot. Talk to you tomorrow.

A quiet day here too (nothing wrong with that!) We are resolving to lose weight at our house too- haven't jumped on it yet like you have. Don't know if I will stick to a certain regime, but from past experience, I know enough to lay off the sugar and processed foods. Whole grains, less bread no sweets (nor potate chips- my downfall!) And MORE physical movement! I plan to join a local support group- TOPS (Taking Pounds Off Sensibly). Support is important! Ask me how I'm doing and I'll ask you, ok?

Started the diet already, eh? I'm still pondering.

Donna said...

Nathalie-I knew enough to!!! LOL But sometimes Hubby and I would look at each other and say..."just a little please"...It's not hard taking it off really, it's hard remembering Not to put it back on!!! I'll be checking with you!


Anvilcloud- It's not a difficult one..in fact you really over eat! At the end of the 1st two wks, I didn't want to look at anything that was labeled "food"! But it changes you life for the better (grumblegrumble)...LOL

Here we are, trying to watch what we eat, and all of a sudden I can't think of anything but deep fried oreo's!

My tree has been down for a while now. Once Christmas is over, I'm ready for my house to go back to normal, whatever that may be!

Have a good evening, miss donna :)!

So it looks like the stella diet is a low carb diet. Is that correct?
