Topic : 100 pounds to loose and just getting started - AGAIN!

I know how you feel. I stepped on the scale a little over a month ago and could not believe my eyes that the darn thing read 290 lbs. My first instinct was to throw the scale out the window and go sit on my couch and have a nice pity eating session but thankfully I chose to do something about it instead. I'm down to 272.4 this morning with a goal to see the 60's by the end of this month. My eventual goal is to get down to 170 lbs but that mountain sounds too high to climb so I'm setting smaller goals in the meantime that I can reach in a month or two. I haven't tried weight watchers (probably the only diet I haven't tried) but recently finished reading Dr Phil's book and found it to be quite helpful. I'm trying to incorporate small steps in my daily life such as replacing the junk food with healthier alternatives and walking at least a mile a day. So far, so good! I know we can do it...one day at a time, one step at a time. Each and every day that goes by I'm feeling stronger and more confident that this will be the time that I finally do it for good. You can do this....every journey begins with one small step. Have a great weekend!
