today is a new day!

Today is a new day!!! I find that sometimes it helps to actually have a plan what you are going to eat. Someone told me once "being hungry leads to bad food choices" and I totally believe that. I do much better when I know what I'm going to have that way I'm not tempted to go pick up something "easy".

No dwelling on the past and what we can't undo! Learn from it and make better choices today!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!!!

Everyone of you sound wonderfully supportive and optimistic! I am a natural born optimist but have self control (in that natrually fat free area) so that my pesimistic friends don't get freaked out to often. :-)

I am doing pretty ok with my calorie intake and less that terrible with getting a little exercise but my issue comes to light in the fact that I lose steam rather quickly (or have before finding this site) due to the fact that results take a while to be noticable. I am fighting harder than I ever have before and my first very small goal was reached today, I only had one carbonated drink, other than that I drank one cup of coffee and water. I can tell my body is much better off when I take in the right amounts of water but I have a great relationship with diet Dr. Pepper so it will be difficult for a few days. No worries - I will fight and win this battle!!!
