Need to Lose Weight

I have talked about in the past how I hate how my weight has climbed up in my late 40's and that I have 20 pounds to get rid of. I have been doing some serious research on what to do and I think I have found a solution to better weight loss than Weight Watchers.

Here is some interesting things I am finding out about different types of diets. Low Calorie Diets ARE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, Low Carb Plans ARE WAY TOO STRICT, Low Fat Foods JUST DON'T WORK and Weight Watchers® & Jenny Craig® Diet Plans Take Too Long and cost a lot of money.

I have read many places that you must eat more than 3 times per day if you want to really lose weight. I truly believe this might be what I need to do to lose this extra 20 pounds.

Believe it or not – after every meal you eat, your brain releases two types of hormones into your body. One hormone controls fat burning and the other controls fat storage. Believe it or not the body doesn’t care what type of food you put in it – it will be stored or burned up as energy either way!

The reason I believe eating like this will work is because my dad ate like that and was not over weight. He would "graze" as we called it. He would eat a little bit at least 6 times a day and was never over weight.

A quote from the website, "My Online Fat Burning Diet Generator is exactly what you need. It will generate an easy to follow 7 day diet plan that is GUARANTEED to let your body easily and safely burn up to 10 pounds every week! Go ahead and open up the calendar on your computer – look at today and then highlight 7 days from now – it isn’t very far away – You Could be 10 Pounds Lighter by Then!"

I have tried all the other diets and I'm ready to lose weight!

Chocolate Chip Cookies and Layouts

Blog Prompt: Today is National Chocolate Chip Day. Describe your favorite chocolate chip food.

How can I describe the taste of warm, gooey, creamy, smooth, luscious, sweet, buttery with a hint of crispness on the edge cookie????? I mean, this cookie makes me smile when I just walk by it. I adore it. I drool over it. I have gained weight over this wonderful creation.

You must have an ice cold glass of milk with it and once that cookie reaches my taste buds, it brings me back to a great day as a child, a wonderful night with my husband and just pure ecstasy!

These cookies do bring back memories of one of my favorite Phoebe lines from the TV show FRIENDS. Monica is needing a cookie recipe and Phoebe says her grandmother has the best. Monica asks Phoebe where they can find the recipe........

Phoebe:Well, y’know I may have relatives in France who would know. My grandmother said she got the recipe from her grandmother, Nesele Tolouse.

Monica: What was her name?

Phoebe:Nesele Toulouse. (She says this in a French accent)

Monica: Nestle Tollhouse?!

Phoebe: Oh, you Americans always butcher the French language.

Every time I hear her say that it just cracks me up!! If you know this episode you know what I am talking about.
