Good Morning

Another day, another dollar. Or something like that! Cold here again today. Only 38 so ran inside again this morning. Did 28.08 so getting close to the magic 30 minutes. Weight is holding steady at 6-7 lbs below my goal so feeling very good about that. Have a good day.

I'd rather have pennies! We can sell them for the copper content!

Brrrr! That's cold. What kind of flowers (if any) do you have trying to poke their heads up?

You are so great! You really have a lot of stamina.

My dream is to be below my goal weight. Just have to get their first!

When you changed your diet did you just do it all at once? I find I'm having trouble sticking to it - especially on the weekends. It is making me sad! Any tips?

Our tulips are up about 3 inches but no flowers yet. Peonies are just starting to come up. Iris's are up but no flowers yet. Asparagus is coming up! Will be picking in a few days I think. Onions and radishes I planted are coming up. So progress is being made!

This will sound dumb to some people I know but when I was trying so hard to lose that weight I carried a piece of paper in my pocket every day. On it I wrote down my weight that morning and my goal weight. When I was tempted to have a cookie or a candy bar or whatever I forced myself (most of the time!) to pull it out of my pocket and look at it. Sometimes I still had the cookie but mostly I decided to wait.

That sounds like a great idea to me, actually!

There are multiple parts of that agreement. I decide that I care enough to write it down, I decide I care enough to carry it with me. I decide it matters enough to take out the paper when I'm in food crisis. And then I'm responsible for making a conscious decision.

I'm going to try this! Thanks!
