Have I mentioned?

I am REALLY excited about living a more active lifestyle. It's not at all uncommon for me these days to suggest taking a walk, whether I've taken my daily walk or not. Before, I would've gone on a walk, but it wouldn't have been my suggestion. I really enjoy it now! And I just feel better, overall. I feel better about myself and more energetic. Not so "Blah".

I'm trying to be patient with myself. I'm trying to change a life here, not just eat skimpy for a few days. I could've done better, but I could've done SO much worse! And I really do think I'm beginning to think differently too. I still have trouble imagining that I'll ever be skinny, but I'm working on it. But more than that, I'm really thinking about being healthy more than being skinny. And my idea of what is "ok" to eat is changing drastically. My addiction to sugar is MUCH better, and that really helps. I still eat it sometimes, but I don't feel so much like I NEED SUGAR NOW.

This week I do want to try to do better and concentrate on keeping track of what I'm eating and whatmore. But regardless of what I end up eating, I'm going to be happy that I'm changing my life. Even if it isn't changed yet.

You're doing it the right way... one step at a time. That's the best way. Yes, there are faster ways to loose weight, but they're not acceptable lifestyle changes. And you're much healthier doing it this way too.
Keep up the good work!
