Fitness Questions for Patti.
Help! I have no self control! How do I lose weight?
To gain self-control, you need to adjust some old and worn thinking patterns. Do you really believe that you are going to succeed this time? or deep down, do you believe you will just give it a minimum effort, and, just say “Well I tried”, and then give yourself permission to give up.
Look deep within yourself, and don't be afraid of what you will see. By confronting yourself, and demanding more of yourself, you can be honest with yourself, and demand a higher level of integrity.
Facing yourself, and regaining a new positive belief in you, is vital to your weight management success. This means more than paying lip service with the same old clichés.
Take responsibility, and then, take control. This is what self-control is really all about. Change and self- control come from within.
Try writing down a brief summery of your ability to use self control: What does this say about you? Are you optimistic or pessimistic? Do you take responsibility or are you a victim? Does it reflect good self esteem or a lack of confidence?
To have effective self- control, accept yourself, love yourself and be willing to change. Understand that you are not powerless over your behavior. It all comes back to not letting yourself off the hook.
If you know that you sit down and eat 5 cookies at one time, then you have to be honest, and say that you are sabotaging your health, for a quick and shallow payoff. Do you really think that you could not stop at one cookie? Of course you could. You just chose NOT to.
Sometimes you just have to ask yourself, are you a responsible mature person or a 3 year old?
Be aware of the negative self-defeating patterns in your life. Make your internal dialogue positive and uplifting to your thoughts and actions. Use your self-control to change one step at a time.

Carol's Corner
Hello from your foreign correspondent in Orange Beach, Alabama!
Whew! Just got in from some cleaning up. We were not evacuated, but Hurricaine Katrina was interesting-the wind was scary.
Storm surge is the major issue. Lots of blustery wind. Gulf Shores got the same storm surge as when Ivan came through.
We are getting very good at boarding up windows and such. My parents lost power, but we didn't. We lost it at 7:00pm-after the worst of the storm, but we think they just brought the grid down to repair lines.
We lost two trees but no big deal. Mobile got it worse than we did-more surge than when Ivan blew through. One drill station got loose and hit the Causeway........nothing is as bad as New Orleans stuff, though.......thanks for checking in.
