Too Hungry?

I’ve learned the hard way that no diet will be successful if you’re hungry all the time. Sheer willpower only saves you for so long before you fold, and begin eating everything in sight. For a weight loss plan to be truly successful, it needs to fill you up with healthy food…ones that will curb your hunger and make you feel satisfied. Only then will you lose weight.

I finally found a product to banish my menopause symptoms, and it’s completely natural.  

I always said in my younger years, “I can’t wait for menopause and hot flashes because I’m always cold.” Be careful what you wish for! Thankfully, the hot flashes never came, but I was having a terrible time with night sweats. The first night that I had one, I woke in horror as I thought a large spider was crawling across my chest. It was sweat, rolling down to the sheet! Now, you that don’t know me must realize that I rarely sweat, even in the hottest summer months. Maybe a slight glistening, as they say in the movies. So this phenomenon was totally new to me.

As a mother, nose bleeds were a challenge for me and my youngest son. They were frequent and worrisome as well as a common occurrence at the most inopportune moments. It was during a phone call to the Children’s Hospital late one night that I learned that I had been handling it incorrectly. Seems simple enough and yet a lot of us don’t know what to do.

Stop Worrying

I will start this post with a question, the same question my Mother would always asks me, “Will your worrying help anything?”

I believe that the answer to that question is no! It boils down to this–if we have the power to change anything, then we need to work towards a solution. Why complain and worry when we have the power?

But what if it is out of our control, then all the worry in the world won’t fix or resolve it!
