Hey everyone! I just wanted to post and share my joy that I took in only the calories I was allowed for yesterday, I walked 30 min up and down hills, and I'm just so happy about that! My goal is to reach 185 by Nov 13 (my birthday) that's 8lbs and I hope I can do it. Once I made the step out the door for the walk, I felt so silly for putting it off for so long. I wonder why we are like that? Well, anyway I hope I don't bore anyone, I'm new and everything is "new" to me and I'm just excited. Today is a new day and I plan to make good choices! Cheers to everyone working hard today:happy:

    Oh, and I forgot to mention that my goals are in increments! Once I get to 185, I'll make another goal to something else- that was the whole idea about the baby steps, just forgot that part. Guess I was so happy to share I forgot my topic :blushing:
