Day One wasn't so bad really. I stayed focused and stayed on track. I did get a little hungry toward the end of the day and started to get a headache but I grabbed a handful of pistachio nuts and ate those instead of grabbing a soda or a cup of coffee.
Thanks to everyone for the support and words of encouragement. I got teary eyed reading them. Anyway..I really think this is something I can stick with. I even took Robert Jr. out for a walk tonight in between rain storms and it was so nice and relaxing. As I look at him I know that by being a healthy Mom he will learn good eating habits and hopefully not have to ever fight the "battle of the buldge".
Instead of giving myself reasons why I can't lose the weight, I give myself reasons why I can.
I've been trying to comment, but for some reason I can't post on blogger sites from work..grrr. It's awesome how you letting us follow your journey :) You are doing great. The hard part for me has been not eating the not so great things my family loves for dinner - so on those nights I just make myself something separate. The hardest part for me though is that my husband tells me he likes me the way I am, and doesn't seem to understand I really want to lose weight to be healthier for our family.
