Zuleikaa!!!! 
I am so excited I can barely type! When I was younger I would
always gain 10-20 pounds over the winter months and then slough it
off during the summer. VERY FRUSTRATING!!!
I was always depressed for Christmas and my birthday in January - by
Valentine's day I was usually starting to come out of my slump.
In the past 5 to 10 years - like clockwork - in September I am at the
dr's for one reason or another. AGH! By February I am craving sunshine and WARMTH!!!! Today I brought in the kerosene heater! I could NOT get warm!!!!
I'm better now! 
Could this all be as simple as SAD? I know it's been a problem in the
past ... what I DID NOT relate it to was not losing weight/gaining weight/carb cravings, etc!
I cannot THANK YOU enough!!! I have cut out EVERYTHING I could think might be causing me to stall. Caffeine, fake foods, splenda, nuts. It just didn't make sense! I was cutting back in ways that before had brought weight loss!!!
So now I can just calm down. Stick with the program. And when my new DVD for Walk Away the Pounds gets here? I can increase to two miles and PRAY that the pounds start dropping again!!!
Thank you for this RAY OF HOPE!!!
Bea
*Looking forward to BEING WARM again!!!*
