Whoo-Hooo

I am so happy at how well my journey is going lately. I am about to meet the goal that I was hoping to have met by August. 7 more pounds and I will have lost 25 pounds!!!! Once I reach that then I guess I need to readjust my goal. It has been so much easier this time than any other time that I have tried to lose weight, I guess it just took being in the right mind set, and I am a firm believer in a keeping a food journal. It also helps with Jimmy and I both working on this journey together. He is doing a great job also, I am so proud of his accomplishments! I have been walking for about 40 minutes every morning, even in the rain. Friday and this morning I was caught in the rain before I made it home. It kept me from getting hot that way. :o) Hopefully I will have more good news the next time I check it. 18 pounds are gone, hopefully forever!!!!!

A Few More Pounds

Well, I haven't been as diligent as I had hoped to be about posting to the blog, however, and more importantly, I have been diligent in my journey. I am down 16 pounds as of this morning!!!! I have been on a two mile walk, and worked in the flower beds a little. I feel better with each pound lost. It seems like the longer I go eating healthy and eating less the easier it is. There are times when I think I should be hungry but I am just not. I have learned how to control my urges (except for icecream) and I am working on only eating when I am hungry. And resisting snacking just out of habit. I hope everyone is doing great!
