Focusing on eating healthy and being healthy.

Feeling a bit better today...

It was so nice to hear from all of you who left me a get well comment! Thank you so much!!
Well....I do have to report to you all that I did turn to food 2 times :( one time I had a cookie with coffee and the other time I searched the house for chocolate!!! I found a snack size candy bar and ate it. I didn't really feel bad about it either. I feel worse about turning to food for comfort than I do about the two treats that I ate. I have not had the desire to turn to food for comfort as much as I used to so, I know things are getting better in my new way of healthy eating & healthy living.

I'm feeling a bit better today. I'm thinking the coffee I had this morning has a bit to do with it though (more energy). :)
My sinuses are a bit more clear today and I'm not so grouchy......yet.....in a couple of hours it may be a different story! I did a lot today. I went to class and did double classes today....it was sooooo hot....my face was beet red! I drank a lot of water though and slowed down a few times when I felt like I needed to. My partner for the second class needed to go slow today too, so that helped. The partner I had for the first class is one of the hardest people to work with that's there. I have had a lot of trouble with her in the past, but today wasn't bad. I plan to write a bit more about that when I tell you all about the secret that I have (I'm working on a page to tell you about it). Lots of workout time today!

So tomorrow is my weigh-in day I'm not sure how I will do considering I didn't exercise as much this week and went to a BBQ. So far today the scale is down a pound....but we'll see tomorrow what the official number is ??!!

Hope everyone is doing well this week. I checked in on the HYC but I didn't take time to read many blogs this time to see how everyone is doing.

I am so fascinated by the progress pictures people have posted. From the beginning pictures to the ones that have lost 200lbs. and more. If you have progress pictures I would love to see them.....if you do not have progress pictures I would highly recommend you to really consider posting them even if you don't like your picture you never know how it might inspire someone else. I think the progress pictures and the positive comments left by all of you, have been my biggest incentives to keep on going and never give up.

Good to hear you're feeling better!
I wouldn't feel bad at all about a couple of snacks. This journey is a lifestyle change. If you can't do it for the rest of your life, it won't work. So, to say your never going to eat a cookie again, wouldn't work either!
Wishing you luck at the scales tomorrow!

Your right, pictures do make a difference. They are what inspired me to start losing weight to begin with, not only how I looked in a picture(yuck)but the before and after pictures I saw, and how even 10 lbs makes a difference.I'm glad you feel better today. Praying for you at the scales.
