Just got back

[aliskye]

from an hour walk. I figured it was probably about 3 miles. I hadn't planned to go quite that long, but I kept going a few blocks further to go down streets I hadn't been down before. I found an elementary school I didn't even know was there and a different tract of houses.

I'm not sure what my plan for the day is. I spent the last couple of days moving furniture around the living room and moving the computer. (An adventure in itself) But now the rest of the house and the living room is even messier than before. So, cleaning is a big priority. I also bought a new printer yesterday and I need to set that up. I'm just not quite sure where it's going to go now.

I weighed myself this morning and it looks like I'm down another pound. I can't figure out why I'm sticking to this program when I couldn't do it before. (Okay....I really do know. I'm going to meetings and weighing in every week. That accountability makes a big difference to me.) But I'm still surprised in some ways. I made a habit of the walking and even though Worldcon was a big interruption, I got right back to it when I got home. I have more problems with the eating. I still need to be eating more fruits and vegetables and drinking more water. I'm not doing as much binge eating though. I feel much more in control. I have a package of cookies in the house that have lasted about two weeks. Previously the same package would have been gone in 5-6 days.

I think I need to buy a lamp. This corner is pretty dark.

Okay....time to get with it here.

Congratulations on the weight loss and the "sticking with it" that's done it. I think to some degree you just have to be ready, and you were. Eighteen pounds is very impressive!
