Holding

I am still holding at 268 which I consider a success since I haven't gained anything. 

I planted my garden last night.  It was so satisfying - it was also a LOT of work - so I didn't worry about trying to get in a workout!

I also popped some little pretties (pansies, daisies, petunias, etc) in my flower bed that my husband just finished for me.  They are so cute - it's somehow very comforting to water and care for them then see them flourish.

I have been really looking in the mirror lately and it is so surprising to see the mass of flesh that I have become (I know it shouldn't be surprising - I mean I have been there for the whole weight gain thing) it was just really shocking to see the size.  I guess I was in denial and didn't want to admit just how much my poor body was stretching and hurting.  Right now, I just want to take care of the girl I see hidden in the mirror and bring her out into the open - let her shine and flourish like my little flowers.

Oh yeah, in case anyone actually cares - I took the very sound advice of my friend Bloodshot Betty and reset my weight tracker from this day forward. It IS a new start and I would like to thank her for the suggestion.  You rock Miss Betty!!

Alright, so back to it.

I will see you all later!

one day at a time.....: D

Its one step at a time, one day at a time, one month at a time...... however you look at it, you are on the right path to losing weight and letting that inner child shine thru: D We've all looked in the mirror and have said the same thing but you should be proud of yourself because you are doing something about it!!!
