    I've learned that it really isn't all that hard to lose weight, you just have to want to.

    I've learned that nobody can make the decision for you, you have to do it for yourself.

    I've learned that after eating good, healthy food for so long, a pizza makes me feel ill. And that is wonderful.

    I learned today, that I can say "no thank you" to the chocolate chocolate cake doughnut the guys at work offer me.
    I don't "need" a diet Coke to get through the morning.
    30 minutes on the treadmill or bike really isn't that long at all...I can go longer!

    I have learned:

    I am not too old to change.
    I am not too fat to exercise.
    I am stronger than I thought.
    I don't know everything about dieting or I wouldn't be where I am today.
    I like having friends (thank you friends!) and being accountable for what I put in my mouth.
    I LOVE (can't get enough) green leafy veggies.
    AND the biggest surprise......
    Exercise improves my mood and makes me have more energy. I would have never believed that one without experiencing it for myself.

    - it is alot easier to eat my five a day than I first thought
    - I can also drink 8 glasses of water a day, sometimes more, without even really trying too hard.
    - that I enjoy the feeling I get after an exercise session
    - I eat ALOT in a day, but I now eat the right things as opposed to the rubbish I used to snack on.

    look at start date :heart:


    I have learned:
    I keep on learning!
    When I help others, I help myself
    When I encourage others on the same path I feel better about myself
    Take each suggestion with a grain of salt (OK let's say sand so it is sodium free!) because it is someons opinion, not gospel

    I am doing this for me!!!

    I've learned that it's better for me to weigh my self once a month instead of weekly. I choose the 13th to be my weigh in day. The body fluxates so much with muscle and fat, I FEEL better when I see -8lbs apposed to -0.2lbs , YKWIM?

    I've learned that I ENJOY exercise! Sometimes it's a bit rough getting started, but as soon as I start, I realize, I'm having FUN! Afterwards, I FEEL better........LOVE endorphines!!!! I feel PROUD of myself for making say a salmon sandwich instead of eating the meat lover pizza that my husband ordered. I've learned that in order to improved my outside, I neeed to focus on what is INSIDE first!

    I'm sure I'll have much more to learn........I'm still at the beginning!
