The eating holiday

Well, I made it through Thanksgiving. We tried to set up the menu with healthy options. I stuck with turkey and veggies and ate the low points dessert I made. I had one bite of my favorite pie. One bite is a real victory as I am the type that has difficulty pushing it away after the first taste. I have been, however, failing in the water and exercise department. So, these are my main areas to work on this week: -drink more water -get some exercise Last week: 177.5 Today: 176.5 -------- Total: - 1.0

Still at it

I havent checked in for a while. I really want to keep a record here for my own reflection. I weighed in today at 177.5. This is a total loss of 12 pounds. I am feeling good about it and it feels as though I have made some positive changes so far. While I have had ups and downs and wavering commitment levels, I feel as though I have made some positive changes in my eating. I have made better choices even at the times when I felt like it didnt matter. I pray that these changes stick for a lifetime and continue to bring about more lasting change.
