Moving Forward

I have stopped counting days - I don't exactly know when I stopped, maybe around the time of my last entry, but I have stopped. I no longer think of this as something with a beginning and an end. I really now think of it as a lifestyle. That is the goal, right? I am not saying I am perfect, and I am definitely not saying I have lost the total amount of weight I need to, but I see changes in me. I feel the changes in my choices, how I look at food, and in the fact that I don't have that burning, "get out of my way" need for something sweet at the end of the day like I did even three weeks ago.

So, here I am, on March the 2nd, and really praying that these "feelings" (which I know can be deceiving) are here to stay. That the changes that are positive inside me are permanent. That I am on the right track - moving forward - and that four months from now - one year from now - I can look back and say - "Yes, I remember the moment my heart changed."

So, all that being said - I still am waiting on my heart to get on board with exercise. Unfortunately, I really think God is waiting on ME to get on board with exercise. Funny, huh? Well - I keep packing my workout clothes and they keep not getting used. My intentions are so so good though! :D

I am down 16.5 lbs this morning. If I could exercise and completely lay off chocolate and sweets I know I could be down more, but - oh well- this is me for now - and I will forge ahead, with God's help.

Again, I am so very thankful for my support - from my husband most of all - and from those that have commented on the changes they see outwardly, but I know they are only the result of the changes from within.

Blessings as you move forward!
