Default tomorrow

is day 1.

i'm going to write a blog post, plan a menu for the week and go to bed at 11.

and then tomorrow the journey of a lifetime begins with the alarm clock.

when i quit smoking for the first time all those years ago, i remember standing outside, smoking that last cigarette and being both so scared and so excited about being a non-smoker.

tonight i feel the same way.

there are a gazillion things i want to do and write and figure out right NOW. patience is never my strong suite.

but it begins. here.

hee!

watch out!

When I started out on this little venture I too felt unbelievably EXCITED! I knew a change was coming. A life-transforming change. I was ready. I knew *finally* that I COULD MAKE IT HAPPEN. And man oh man was I excited.

Welcome to 3FC. I greatly look forward to hearing about your success as you travel though this fantastic journey towards good health.

Isolde, I'm so excited for you! I remember smoking the last of my last pack before midnight and being so incredibly nervous. And, I remember the rough times when I quit. But, today, I realize that it was so worth the pain and effort! Weight loss will probably be the same. A year from now, you will be so glad that you began this journey and stuck it out!
