Mind over Matter

I have always been big on "mind over matter". I do not have an addictive personality, so when I am ready to be done with something, it's over.

So long cigarettes, so long bad habits, so long ex-boyfriends. I will never crave any of you again.

I firmly believe that all it takes to do something is will power. Just put your mind to it and if you really, really want to get to your goal, you will.

This could apply to just about any aspect of life. Right now, it is my dieting. My diet consists of fruits, vegetables, low fat cottage cheese, white meats, pickles, and Dreamsicles. (I am surprised that four cups of vegetables is the caloric equivelant of half a Girl Scout Cookie.)

At any rate, I think my mind has gone overboard this time. I have not been eating much but I have not been hungry. I used to be hungry all the time. I have lost 5 pounds since I started this thing two and a half weeks ago. I don't think that is healthy. But now I am stuck until June 1st. I have broken my body and my mind is in control now. Maybe I should try matter over mind?

OH!! And let me tell you that Blue is the MAN!!! He helped me get my HaloScan all worked out and change Blogger's Comment Title to Poultry Fodder. He offered to help and then sent me three really long emails to help me. I still didn't get it right so he told me I could call him and he walked me through it and said goodbye. How awesome is that? How often do we meet people that are nice for the sake of being nice? I love it!
