Being & Thinking Thin

I really believe that if you put your faith in something that eventually it will come true. I believe that I will get into law school and I believe that I will eventually fit back into my beloved size 2's. I love looking at pictures of women from the 40's & 50's. One of my favorite ladies for fashion, style and thinness is Mrs. Wallis Simpson. I love Mrs. Simpson because of the glamour, love for her man and her weight and views on it. I know that we all have different body shapes but I do believe that its important to have a role model on days where eating becomes a sport instead of used for nutrition. Mrs. Wallis famously said that you could never be too thin or too rich. View points that I agree wholeheartedly with lol. One of the tricks that she has used over the years as well as Coco Chanel is that they always say "no". I have an issue with saying "no" and I'm learning that the older I get I love the power of that two letter word. When it comes on to dessert or treats I often ask myself "do I really need this" I also conjure up a picture of thin and lovely Ms. Wallis and I remember that clothes taste better than food.

I've come a long way from eating for eating sake and I believe that friends sometimes will sabotage your weight loss goals. I have a friend who is heavy set and she of course loves to eat. I enjoy eating as well, but I love to fuel my body instead of giving it unnecessary calories and sugar. I have to stand firm and give strong No's when it comes to eating out with her, sometime she pouts but I can't get into my cherished size 4 if I'm eating fries all night. I think the only thing that I need to conquer is eating late at night. I'm a horrible sleeper so when I wake up which is often during the night I find myself starving to the death. I'm unsure of what causes my hunger, it could be sleeping with the lights on or not drinking enough water. I think sleeping with a face mask and having a cup of water by my bed will help with my nocturnal eating. If not I'm going to have to cut up fruit or veggies and leave them out for snacking. Funny if I'm sleeping with someone ie (mother! GET YOUR MIND OUT THE GUTTAH)! I don't normally eat during the night:)

For the rest of 2009 lets pratice small no's and hopefully that will translate to a wisp like waist like Sis. Wallis!
