My Thoughts:
I was not sure if I would really get anything out of this book. I mean you know how many books about weight loss, I have read?? A LOT!!! However, with each one I try to keep in mind, that it has to be ultimately my decision to be able to make it work. No book is going to do it for you. I have try numerous times over the years…. all ending in failure, cause I found some excuse to give up. As I was reading this book, it dawned on me that I need to stop making the excuses. Their really never is an excuse to just give up. I wouldn’t give up at other things, so why do I when it come to losing weight?? I need to make this goal and stick with it. Doing it one day at a time, and not giving up if I make one mistake, cause everyone makes mistakes or has a bad day… The next day is always a new day right? Therefore, yes again I am committing to try again to lose weight… The start date none other than the 1st of the year. No more excuses, no more I don’t have time to exercise, no more I didn’t have any other options to choose a better meal. I am 30 and need to make this work. I need to be healthier for me and my children, I need to be able to live to see them all grow up. Not end up with cholesterol or diabetes issues… I need to do my part. I need to be their role model and eat right….cause if I don’t who will??? I will be posting about my journey here and there…. so I hope you follow me while I start my new One-Day Way!
She is a fantastic writer, and has so much to share with her own struggle to lose 200 pounds. If she can do it, anyone can right? I love that the books have some other personal stories and journey’s that touched my heart, and hit close to home, as I have also felt those same feelings.
I would absolutely recommend this book to any of my friends, or family that want a new start. A new way to look at life, and how to lose that unwanted pounds..Whether it be 10pds or 200pds, we all have feelings and struggles.

Slow down your eating. Try to chew your food more.
