Default I DID IT......I survived!

I made it thru the weekend and even had to go to a restaurant and still DID IT.

I also walked (2 times on Saturday) and today, Monday morning it is raining here and I still WALKED! I know I have to rain or shine, I can't give myself an excuse NOT to.

I am still amazed that the counting calories is working for me.

I am MINUS 3 lbs in my first week.

Here's to many more and again - THANK YOU FOR YOR SUPPORT!

Good for you! I love that you walked in the rain! When I used to go to the gym I made it a point to go every single day even if I was sick. I wouldn't necessarily work out, but I still got up and went. Sometimes I just hit the locker room, turned around and went back home. It was the habit I was after and it worked very well.

Great job !!! The first step is the hardest .I have been doing this for over a year now. I am down almost 80 pounds. I started at over 300 pounds and that first walk to so much courage . I thought people would stare at such a huge girl out walk up the hills of sanfrancisco . I was wrong ,people have been wonderful .I have 70 pounds left to go . I am doing it one step at a time.
congrats
