What do you think about us posting all the positives to this way of life and way of eating? As we think of more reasons, we can copy and paste and then add it to the list. That way the last post will have tons of motivating thoughts for us to refer to. Lately I have been jotting down the positives at work to keep me from indulging in the junk that people inevitably bring in on an almost daily basis. Even though I have decided that now is the time for action on my weight loss goals, still I am tempted, and I want to remember the benefits of the low carb choices I am making. Join along if you want to.

BENEFITS OF LOW CARB EATING AND WEIGHT LOSS

1.I spend more time thinking of the positives about myself rather than the negatives: When I overeat, I berate myself, tear myself down, beat myself up, etc. What is constantly on my mind are negative thoughts. When I eat well, I see myself in a new light, I imagine all my possibilities and what I can accomplish in my life.
2. I have less back pain as I lose weight.
3. I have more energy when I eat low carb.
4. I have more energy at a lower weight.
5. I feel less puffy when I eat low carb.
6. Instead of focusing and thinking about...hmmm what sweets/carbs/etc can I eat next and then spending the time eating them, I instead spend my time doing things I love, like gardening, photography, reading.
