I'm sorry that I'm a little late checking in tonight, it's just that kind of a day. Working day and night is starting to really suck. I haven't even had time to deposit some checks and just realized tonight that I'd better pay some bills before they are overdue. I'm normally so good with that stuff! Ah well... "two more weeks, two more weeks" has become my mantra.
Other than overall business, it's been a good day today and a good week. A little incident at work today really reminded me about how much I really like to be in control (not controlling, just on top of things). If I have some uncertainties, I feel scattered, stressed and sometimes even a little panicky but the last few months, I've been able to recognize this and have been able to do what I need to do to feel back on top of things before it gets out of hand. I think this is related to my weight loss journey. I don't like the feeling that I get when I'm out of control with food. I have a feeling that this is why I've been able to get right back on track instead of remaining in the depths of an endless binge session, upset, depressed and unhappy. Hurray! My mom also commented to me tonight that this time around on my weight loss journey, I seem different. She was wondering what had finally "clicked" with me and what has made me so persistent and focused on my goals. It was neat to me that she noticed this and actually felt like a huge compliment so that made me feel good.

It's vitally important to have that "click". We may still falter in future, but we're more likely to regroup and carry on...
Well done!
that is great that people are starting to notice a change in you. that is because you are not just doing this for a quick fix..you are doing this for life. the healthy choices yo uare making are becoming habits and true changes and that is FANTASTIC.
When you've made up your mind, it's a powerful thing. Where's there's a will, there's a way. We're all CAPABLE of having a healthy lifestyle, but it's the decision to that changes us. Good for you!!!
