Still On The Journey!

I'm now 42 lbs down! It really is about being conscious of what you eat. I know you shouldn't obsess but at the same time you shouldn't close your mind to what you are eating until after you've eaten all the BAD foods- because then comes the REGRET. We all know about the "Pain of Regret"! So Whit, I'm glad your being positive - but did you read my last article about pretending like your starting all over, setting some goals again, writing in your journal again, etc. We know HOW to lose, but doing it are two different stories. It is such a huge self-discipline. If it were so easy, 70% of Americans would not be overweight. You girls are in the minority - pat yourself on the back and reach for healthy goals either maintaining, toning, building cardio and muscle strength, reaching your ultimate goal weight...

Your Dad woke up this morning moaning and groaning because his clothes were too tight. I said "you can either buy bigger clothes or take losing weight serious" - we'll see which direction he goes... Last night he wanted to reward Leah for all her studying so he buys Taco Bell and Ice Cream - OMG Leah didn't eat the ice cream - that was good! I had one Taco and about 125 calories of ice cream. I weighed this morning at 42 lbs down probably due to my 1 hour dog walks last night. I miss having dogs that can actually keep up for more than 10 minutes - poor Wueezy just can't hang anymore - she has the Want To, just not the Can Do.

This is how your Dad looked walking Captain (minus the hat) ;-))
