Just thinking.

My thought for the day: Here's to the future because I am done with the past! This is my current wallpaper on my iPod. It is my motivation for the week. Which of course has me thinking. Changing eating habits is a lot like trying to quit smoking or drugs. In fact, in some ways it is harder since food is still needed. It isn't just a matter of stopping. You still have to eat. It is changing your whole perception on food. And like quitting drugs or alcohol it is tough. You need a support system. You need a plan. You need to be prepared to fail and get back up.

This week my plan was to use my new menu and grocery list from e-mealz. I bought groceries this evening and am looking forward to staying on track this week. I plan to get back to walking and aside from any crazy weather, I have a week with no distractions from that goal.

I want to see the glass as half full instead of my normal half empty. Some people can just do this weight loss thing like it nothing more difficult than changing the channel on the tv. For me, it is hard work. I guess I need to change the channel in my head from the I can't to the I can channel. I do wish I had a bit more of a support group. That was the plus side to going to weight watchers. I could believe that all those people there were my support system. Power in numbers and all.
