A couple of weeks in

So, I started my lifestyle change on 01/03/2011 and have been logging my good days and bad days since that day.  I have had great success in that I have lost 13 pounds in 3 weeks.  That is a great start.  However, I know that rate of loss will not last and I am scared of what happens when I plateau for the first time.  I am trying to focus on each day and not look ahead.  But I cannot help thinking about the day I am finally a healthy weight.  The day I finally look like the person I see in the mirror.  When I can finally walk into any store I want and grab something off the rack and it fit.  I just hope that I stay motivated through this long journey and not let the the plateaus and bumps and set backs get me down to where I let myself fail.  I really want to succeed and I really feel like this is my year!!!  I am super excited to see the changes my body will be making.  Just hope that I keep the real reason I am doing this in the fore-front.  For myself first, then my family!!!

  1. You're on the right path & Congrats to all your victories!! Writing does help, along with support all around you ... whether that be family, friends, or on-line resources. The most challenging is the support from our self - keeping up on the positive self talk. U Can Do It :)
