This is a tough one. One of the biggest obstacles we face daily are food choices and weight related issues. Food is such a part of our daily routine and culture. Our society overeats the worst kinds of food. (Not to worry, I'm pointing the finger at me too!) Food, especially bad food, is so easily accessible 24 hours a day.
Over the last 5 years, I've "boned up" on a lot of nutritional information. A lot of reports attribute our ill health to excessive sugar and carbs in diets. One gentleman I've learned a great deal from in this area is Jorge Cruise. He offers an outstanding free eBook from his site by liking his Facebook page. After liking his site (if you're still in the "liking" mood), I'd be grateful if you would check out our Code Name: TPR page and liking that as well. (If you have any questions about it, please drop me a line. I'd be happy to help!)
I'll be the first to admit that self-discipline and exercise play a key role in weight management. You can always follow a crazy diet and lose weight, but can you eat that way for the rest of your life? No! One of the toughest things for me was giving up the king-size Daddy portions. The definition of a Daddy portion is a big glob of food 2-3x what everyone else eats. For example, my former portion of a piece of cake or pie was 1/4 of the dessert, seriously. Yep, two big cuts in the cake or pie and I was good to go! Lol! Oh well, it's fun to reminisce.
What I've found is that you don't have to settle for a super-sized version of yourself. It does take time, patience, and self-control. You can do it!
If you have any nutritional and fitness tips you'd like to pass along, I would gladly post them on our Code Name: TPR page.
I'm cheering you on! I look forward to hearing from you. Your new lighter weight is worth the wait!

Taking Personal Responsibility (TPR) Of Your Money
Years ago, I have to admit, our finances were a train wreck. The worst! It was such a horrible feeling going to work everyday and drowning in debt.
Around this time, I was introduced to a relatively unknown financial guy named Dave Ramsey. This was one of the first people that made me believe I could change the mess I was in. Dave explains everything in a very simple, easy-to-understand way.
If you're really having a tough time financially, check out Dave's "Baby Steps" on his site. Once you're on his site, click tools, then "The Seven Baby Steps". I guarantee you, it will be life changing. There is hope!
The Code Name: TPR community is making progress on Facebook. Membership is free and all are welcome. Find the community here, we'd love to have you join us.
More topics to come. Your comments, suggestions, and questions are always welcome. Have a fantastic day!

Introducing "Code Name: TPR"
TPR: Taking Personal Responsibility
TPR is a movement, a mission, a lifestyle. TPR is no longer blaming anyone for your poor choices of the past. It is admitting that positive change can only begin with you; not the government, your boss, or significant other.
Membership to Code Name: TPR is free and open to anyone that wants to learn, grow, and improve. Everyone is welcome.
The Facebook community page is currently being developed, but I would be honored to have you "like" the page in its "bare bones" state. You can find it here.
Code Name: TPR is something that I have been thinking about for a couple of years and am excited that it is coming to life. Not to sound cliche, but life is short. I will definitely need your help changing the world, one life at a time!
