Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend
In hindsight, I'm finding a combination of calorie counting and exercise provided the best (and healthiest) results in past efforts at weight loss. And, if I gave it half a chance, these would probably serve me well in maintaining losses! Rather than choose a numerical goal weight, I'm going to use this challenge to COMMIT to a combination of calorie counting, routine exercise and see where that goes.
I'm also going to begin a "diet" from negative thinking.

It's not difficult to see where I've allowed one negative thought to take root, build itself into a big storyline that fueled a lot of overeating. Yup - one crummy thought can soon have me back in the kitchen preparing a rich, complicated feast for a body that isn't even hungry.

Logging foods eaten keeps me accountable and motivated. Also going to check in here more often, another key to success. I'll post weigh-in results each Friday.

(Somehow, seeing where I've landed each week - whether a gain or loss - helps guide the weekend eating to healthier choices).
