2.5 lbs. down...

and loads more to go! I'm extremely disappointed in myself though. Not that 2.5 lbs. isn't good, but I could have done better. Being home most of last week with nothing to do meant, eat! Well, I don't really have a lot of groceries (pay day could not come sooner!), but what I do have, or did have, in the house was not the best stuff to eat on a "diet". I'm also an emotional eater...big time! I know I am, I can admit it, but I've got to do something about it. I actually told myself a few weeks ago (yes, when you have no one but dogs as company, you talk to yourself ;o)) that...


"I can not buy myself a better mood, and I can not eat my way to happiness!"


That's exactly what I told myself, and I wrote it down. Now if I would just live by it! I have had a major problem in the last couple of months just spending money on stuff I don't really need, or spending it on fast food. I totally realize that I have a problem and that it needs to be fixed, and soon! This week I will strive to do better. I will eat better, drink more water, and add exercise for sure. I know I can do it, I did it before, but I've got to prove it to myself again. Thanks to all for the encouragement!

I'm going to type Josh's latest post now. It's short, but he's started working on another one now. I've decided not to add my own comments to what he has written...or at least not quite as many. I tend to ramble, in case you didn't already know! Hope everyone has a great day!
