Physical hunger can actually wait.

Yes, if it's true hunger, you probably feel you can eat in 10 or 15 minutes with no problems. We have a tendency to 'forget' the extra cream cheese with the bagel, bag of chips with lunch, mid afternoon frozen yogurt break and bedtime snack of chocolate cookies.

Now, the process of journaling doesn't have to be all consuming or take a lot of time; it just needs to be a conscious effort to accurately record your food intake and emotions.

So last week I received the test results of my lab work and I was thrilled! Not only all normal, but better than normal!!!

Weight: 185 lbs
Total Cholesterol 189 (Normal range 165-199)
HDL 77 (Normal range 35-59; doctors say anything above 50 is good - 77 is Great!)
LDL 90 (Normal range is less than or equal to 129; cardiologists are recommending below 100)
Triglycerides 111 (55-199)

I remember my old values being out of range, especially the triglycerides, so I called the doctor again.

Lots of people, including myslef, start running because they want to loose weight. It is important to note that you should perform the exercise accurately to avoid injury.
