Welcome from Tracie Johansen
-------------------------------
Hello Subscribers,
This issue is a little behind because I spent some time
with my daughter and grand children this week. I had
such a great time with them.
I went Grandparents day at the elementary on Friday and spent
the day with my 8 year old Granddaughter going to all her
classes and seeing what see does all day. I enjoyed it very much.
It is so amazing to watch these children and remember the old
days when I was 8 years old and was sure I knew it all. They
are so smart.
Sometimes I do wonder if maybe they know more then we do as
adults. They are more understanding and forgiving. They are
always willing to give of themselves and share with anyone
and they are so loving and trusting.
It seems as we age we lose or sometimes forget to be loving
and understanding of our fellow human beings.
After spending the day with all those fantastic loving, smiling
children I am going to make an effort to learn to be more
understanding and more in touch with people around me.
If we all spend more time being as we were when we were small
children we will all be happier.
Love Thy Neighbor,
Tracie
-----------------------
Are you ready for the holidays? I am having my family over to
my home for Thanksgiving and am really looking forward to it.
Do you have any wonderful plans?
Have A Great Month and Happy Thanksgiving
Sincerely,
Tracie Johansen

Thanksgiving - A Time to Be Realistic with Your Weight.
By Wendy Hearn
http://www.WeightLossCoaching.com
Do you feel you can't enjoy Thanksgiving and manage your
weight at the same time? I've found that many people use
this 'either or' approach to losing weight, particularly
at holiday times. But it doesn't have to be like that.
There is a way of enjoying Thanksgiving yet still being
aware of your weight and your eating and exercise habits.
When a holiday period such as Thanksgiving approaches,
there's often the temptation to abandon the idea of losing
weight, probably because at such times you feel you're
fighting a losing battle to maintain your weight. However,
the healthy eating and exercise habits you've been
building up can still be adhered to.
Thanksgiving, like all holiday periods, is always likely
to be a part of your life and finding a way to handle such
times is crucial to your successful weight loss in the long
term.
Think back to last Thanksgiving. If you over-indulged then,
how did you feel afterwards? Write down all that runs
through your mind about this. Perhaps you regretted eating
so much in view of the uphill battle you've had to get the
weight off in the first place. Do you want to feel the same
way this year? What feeling do you want after Thanksgiving?
At this time of year, if we haven't managed our weight well,
then the chances are increased that we'll do nothing about
it afterwards. We may say we will but after gaining some
weight, it's often difficult to motivate ourselves to start
losing it again. This feeling of failure can be a sticking
point and isn't helpful to permanent weight loss.
I encourage you to take a realistic approach to Thanksgiving.
I suggest it's not realistic to follow a restrictive diet
and nor is going all out to eat whatever you want. There is
a middle ground and I encourage you to find this for
yourself.
Decide what you can realistically do to prevent weight gain
during Thanksgiving. What steps can you take which will lead
to success? Set realistic expectations for yourself. Heck,
you're not perfect, none of us are and it's a waste of energy
striving to be perfect.
When faced with eating, ask yourself what feels like a
realistic amount to eat? This may vary at different times
and you don't want to deprive yourself, because that isn't
realistic. What are you willing to do? What aren't you
willing to do? What does a realistic eating and exercise
plan look like and feel like to you?
Being realistic may mean allowing yourself some cake when
others are eating it. Perhaps having reasonably size
portions of food, or exercising for 20 minutes rather than
your usual 6 hours!
Enjoy the success you achieve with your realistic
expectations rather than looking at what you didn't
accomplish and possibly beating yourself up for it. Are
you trying to achieve too much and expect too much of
yourself? Don't set yourself up to fail, set yourself up
to succeed.
Now that you've decided what's realistic for you this
Thanksgiving, I'm going to challenge you slightly. Being
realistic is great compared to an all or nothing approach.
However, it can also keep us a little bit stuck in a rut.
Since the idea is to move forward with your weight loss and
health, pick one of the items which you decided was
realistic.
Decide here and now to stretch yourself just a little,
enough so that it's a stretch and yet not too far so you
feel you can't do it. The feeling should be "Hmm, I think
I could do that". It must feel achievable and this will
require some commitment from you to do it.
This stretching gives you the opportunity to move forward
continually. Perhaps your stretch could be to choose
fruit on one occasion instead of cake, or perhaps it could
be to eat something for breakfast instead of nothing.
What I want you to have is a successful and joyful
Thanksgiving.

Dieting And Exercising Too Difficult- Compared To What?
By David Junno Psy.D.
http://www.lower-high-cholesterol-ready-or-not.com
We hear it all the time: that eating better, losing weight, and
exercising more are all good for our health. So why don’t we all
do these things? One reason many of us use is that it is too
difficult. Eating right requires planning meals, watching
nutritional content, avoiding certain foods we enjoy. Getting
enough exercise requires setting aside time to do it, exerting
ourselves, sweating, experiencing discomfort, etc. It is a
wonder anyone does these things.
------------------------------------------------
Is it always easy not to make healthy choices?
------------------------------------------------
So how can we get ourselves to make these healthy choices? To
overcome the difficulties of eating better and exercising more
we need to ask ourselves: “difficult compared to what?”
· Is it easy to struggle to get our pants buttoned because we’ve
grown out of them?
· Is it easy to look in the mirror and not like what we see?
· Is it easy to have to avoid discussions and information about
the health effects of being a couch potato because it makes
us feel too bad about ourselves?
· Is it easy to have to stop and rest when we try to do
something physical because we are so out of shape?
· Is it easy to deal with our constant self-criticisms when we
think about how we continue to make unhealthy choices about
what we eat and do?
· Is it easy to tell everyone how we don’t care about the
health risks we face when secretly we feel ashamed of having
let ourselves go for so long?
Overestimating the difficulties of making healthier choices and
underestimating the difficulties of not making these choices
keeps us stuck. The more stuck we are, the more we feel the need
to justify our choices. This requires disputing and avoiding
information about making changes and minimizing the impact of
staying the same. This just keeps us more stuck.
One way to handle the difficulties of making changes in eating
habits and physical activities is to remind ourselves of the
difficulties of not making these changes. It is not like making
healthier choices is difficult and doing nothing is easy. Both
are difficult in different ways.
-------------------------------------------
We all want to feel like responsible people
--------------------------------------------
One of the greatest difficulties with not making healthier
choices, when we know we need to, is how this makes us feel
about ourselves. Addressing this is very important. I read about
a research study asking IV drug users why they wanted to quit.
The main reason for wanting to quit was not the legal
consequences, or the health consequences, but wanting to feel
like a more responsible person.
The bottom line is we all want to feel like responsible people.
Making efforts to improve our diet and exercise habits is
difficult, but it also makes us feel more responsible and in the
end better about ourselves.
So the next time we find ourselves saying dieting and
exercising is too difficult, we need to ask ourselves-
“compared to what?”
----------------------------------------------------------------
Quotes:
'When I hear somebody sigh that 'Life is hard,' I am always
tempted to ask, 'Compared to what?''
Sydney Harris
'Hard work is the accumulation of easy things you didn't do when
you should have.'
Anonymous
'Conquering any difficulty always gives one a secret joy, for it
means pushing back a boundary-line and adding to one's liberty.'
Henri Frederic Amiel
'In this age, which believes that there is a short cut to
everything, the greatest lesson to be learned is that the most
difficult way is, in the long run, the easiest.'
Henry Miller
'If something's hard to do, then it's not worth doing!'
Homer Simpson
----------------------------------------------------------------
Remember, having the right diet and getting
enough exercise will not only improve your
health- IT WILL IMPROVE YOU LIFE.
Until next time,

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
Thanksgiving doesn't have to make you gain weight. I have put
together recipes below to make a complete meal and still come
in at under 1200 calories. If your like me I only eat once
on Thanksgiving since the meal is so great.
Plus, later after dinner you can still have dessert without
going over on your daily calories.

Basic Bread Stuffing
Submitted by: Robyn Webb
" This is a basic bread stuffing for a 12 pound turkey; it
also includes seven variations. Preparation time is 20 minutes.
This recipe is from The WEBB Cooks, articles and recipes by
Robyn Webb, courtesy of the American Diabetes Association. "
Ingredients
2 1/2 cups low fat, low sodium chicken broth
3 onions, diced
6 cups diced whole-grain bread
1 tablespoon paprika
1/4 cup egg substitute
salt and pepper to taste
Directions
1 In a skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1/2 cup of the
chicken broth. Add the onions and cook for 10 minutes until
onions have softened.
2 In a bowl, combine the cooked onions, remaining broth,
bread, paprika, egg substitute and salt and pepper.
Mix well.
3 Place mixture inside the cavity of a turkey or place
it in a casserole dish. If stuffing is to be baked
separately from the turkey, place stuffing in a preheated
350-degree oven and bake for 45 minutes.
4 Variations include - Herb Stuffing: Add 1 tablespoon mixed
chopped sage, rosemary, and parsley. Fruit Stuffing: Add 1/2
cup diced tart apples, washed cranberries, or diced pears.
Sweet Stuffing: Add 1 teaspoon allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg,
or ginger. Mushroom Stuffing: Add 1 cup sliced mushrooms
(white or wild).
Sauté with the onions. Cook until mushrooms are soft.
Chestnut Stuffing: Add 1 cup roasted chestnuts, peeled
(chestnuts are low in fat). To save time, use a jar of
water-packed chestnuts (some grocers stock these around
the holidays) instead of roasting the chestnuts. Dried
Fruit Stuffing: Add 1 cup diced dried apricots, apples,
figs, cranberries, or cherries. Corn Bread Stuffing:
Replace 3 cups of the whole-grain bread with 3 cups
cornbread.
