A Member Speaks Out...

Rose
From New York

Rose says...
"I just did the pole you sent and found the results to be very intersting.
I think we are all doing quite well thanks to your newsletter!
I know we have all learned a lot, THANKS!!"

Hello Rose
I am also from New York...
Thank you so much for your answers in the poll.
As you see...this issue has the results....
Thank you very much for your compliments!!!!
 

 



Motivation

DESIRE IS THE STARTING POINT FOR SUCCESS

The first thing that will contribute to reaching your goal
is that you simply want to reach it badly enough.
You must learn how to desire with sufficient intensity to be successful.

If you have the desire you have the power to attain success.
You can really have anything you want in life if you go after it.
But you have to want it.

As a drowning soul desires air,
as a shipwrecked person craves fresh water,
so must you feel that intense, eager, insistent, demanding,
ravenous desire for your success.

Your desire for success must be so strong within you
that it becomes the very breath of your life.
It must be your first thought when you wake up,
and your last thought when you go to bed at night.

You can have anything you want if you go after it with intensity.

Do you feel eating is #1 entertainment at a party?
Answers Votes Percent
1.
Food is the center focus at a party for fun 13 22%
2.
I rather mingle with people then eat at a party 20 34%
3.
I carefully watch what I eat at a party. 11 19%
4.
I starve myself all day long so I can eat at a party 6 10%
5.
Yes, It is #1 source of fun and entertainment all the time, not just at parties 8 14%
 
RESULTS:
I see good results with this question...
I am proud of the people who watch what they eat at a party!!
I am also glad to see that many people rather mingle with other people at parties over eating the food!!!
People is definitely more important than food!!!!
But... starving yourself all day for the party is not a good idea...You slow down your metabolism during the day by not eating at all!!
For those who feel food is the main focus of parties and the #1 source of fun all the time...again....emotional eating!!!  There is something lacking in life which you need to get more of and it is not food!!  You are not alone...several of us..fall into this area...It is something to work on...that is all...it takes time, work and self-exploring!
 

 
8.
 
Do you have to try all the new food products that come out?
Answers Votes Percent

4.

5.
My mouth waters, but I pass it up only sometimes, sometimes I buy it. 21 36%
6.
I wait to try it from a friend or relative so I have only 1 or 2. 19 33%
 
 
RESULTS:
Interesting...It seems many of us....sometimes give into the temptation to buy and try new food products....and sometimes we have self-control...
Many of us have a good idea to wait to try just 1 or 2 through a friend or relative...
this way we don't eat the whole box ourself...
I think this question has more positive answers...the results could have been a lot worse and it wasn't!!!

Do you eat alot of Fiber? Grains? Fruit? Veggies?
Answers Votes Percent
1.
I eat a lot of whole grains 3 5%
2.
I eat a lot of veggies 9 16%
3.
I eat a lot of fruit 8 14%
4.
I eat a mix of fiber foods 27 47%
5.

6.

RESULTS:
So Proud of all of you that eat a mix of Fiber Foods!!!
Keep up the good work!
For those of you who hardly eat Fiber...
It can be 1 of 2 reasons...
You have choosen to eat Low Carb and it is a decision...
Stick to your diet, if it is working well for you!!
Or...
You you are not a Low Carber...but you neglect that food group...
Pick something to add each week....a fruit...a vegetable...a healthier grain cereal...

Runner up are the people who watch their calories!!!  Very Good!!
It seems though that more people (at least with this poll) lean towards Low Fat...more so than Low Carb/High Protein...
