As is typical of me, I have changed my mind once again on how I am going to get through this life changing journey. I decided that I do need to go ahead and journal my food and keep track of calories so that I can open my eyes to what I am putting in my mouth.

I was proud of myself today though. We now have an hour for lunch (we used to have only 45 minutes). Before I ate my Lean Cuisine, I took a walk around the block. This was on top of the workout I did with the Wii Fit this morning. Weather permitting, I am going to start making this a regular routine. I don't need an hour to eat, so rather than sitting around reading, I might as well get my butt out and walk!

  1. I've found that writing down what you eat (what goes in your mouth) makes you so much more accountable. I've been able to lose weight by just admitting to myself what I'm really eating :) It makes me think a lot more about it ya know? You won't have to count calories forever. Eventually you'll just know what you can and can't have over time and experience. You can do it! And great job on walking! That's the best thing in the world. Not only will you lose weight but you can take a break, have some alone thinking time, and enjoy the fresh air. Awesome!
