I worked out 6 days in a row. I logged everything I ate. EVERYTHING. I watched my carbs and my protein. And I gained 2 pounds. Now lets take a moment and remember this was not about dropping pounds, this was about being healthy. I feel better. I feel great. No heart burn. I am sleeping well. I think my allergies might even be better. I am sticking to it. So my trainer has me adjusting my intake a bit upping it and really following her recommendations for a full 5 days. So we will see what happens next week.

    Maybe it is muscle you are building. I bet you are off and running. I have every faith that we can do this! We might be doing different things but WE ARE DOING it! We are making small and large changes. I was thinking about that this morning...all of the small changes I have made have got to amount to something. And they are..and they will...and they do! I put my jeans on after work and I so wanted them to be very loose (yes let's all accept how super impatient I am) but they only fit better. But guess what? THEY FIT BETTER. This encourages me not to stop. And I read your words and your healthier ways and new tackle on life for YOU are encouraging. Hug from the East Coast. Muaaaaaaahhhh!

This is my motivation. I do not like swim suits like this and often this is what I have to pick from. I have had cute suit in the past and I want to have cute ones in the future. Not suits like this.

What will I do with the next 14000 days of my life? Continue to unhappily live in a size 18 pants that are too snug? My mind will say "hey lets go for a walk, or a swim" and I just don't seem to get out the door. What in the world is my problem? I am 45 years old. What is the second half of my life going to be like? Am I going to live with the 200's on the scale? Eating brownies and ice cream and candy?

Afraid.

How many things have I tried? I can't count. Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, Diet Soup, Metabalife, Herbalife, Body by Vi, so much money. No real pounds lost on any of them. Oh and the work out DVD's (even the VHS) I have. The only thing that ever worked was when I stopped eating completely when I was a junior in high school. I ate one meal a day dinner with my parents because there was no getting around that the rest of the day I chewed gum. I had headaches, I was sleepy but I was skinny. 118 lbs. Size 4. I was happy. Boys looked at me finally. Shopping was fun. Things looked good on me. I worked out twice a day so I could eat lunch and dinner but just a little and no soda, GOD no soda! Water I remember a soda every now and then to keep up my energy. Mostly ice tea. So here I am 45. 100lbs heavier. How did I get here? Busy. Lazy. Age. How many pieces of cake have I eaten over the years? Can I be done with cake now? How many piece of bread? Candy? Oh the cadbury eggs. Ho...
