August!
If you ever wanted to do something on the summer of 2010, this is it!!!
It seems to me that a big chunk of my life has been consumed with the desire to be thin. My mom, G'd bless her memory, was an amazing fashion designer. I learned how make beautiful clothes for others. I was never model material.
The first time I came to this country I was nine years old and I spent a couple of weeks in Disneyland. When I came back home, my mom was absolutely horrified with my looks, since I gained ten pounds in two weeks. No, I was not taller.
So of we went to Weight Watchers, can you believe that it was forty years ago? I lost my ten pounds and then I stopped going to meetings and following the plan. I've lost ten pounds and gained them back at least thirty times over the years, to get ready for summer and to get ready for the winter holidays.
I'm 50. Chances are I have 50 more to go, since many of my ancestors hit the 100s. I'll be fit and thin and youthful. Even if it means I have to eat in a different way.
Congrats Naeemah and thank you for the 60 calories sugarless fudge bars tip.
