Thank you to everyone for your kind words of encouragement. I am officially on day 2, though I'm still not eating under calories yet, but it's a work in progress. One day at a time. One meal at a time. I understand today's overage is thanks to me being away from the house the majority of the day.

You are right that it's one day at a time. At my highest weight I was 100 lbs heavier than I am now. I am still struggling to get to my goal weight, but it has been 8 years since my record high (with some ups and downs since then), and I tell myself every day I'm getting better at making good choices. Just like every day I practice being a better wife, a better teacher, a better citizen, I have to practice making good food and fitness choices.
