So, Day 1 comes to an end. It was a pretty good day! I met the goals of eating nutritiously, and taking my supplements. I could have drank a little more water (will do better tomorrow), and I did not get to exercise today. I say...did not get to....but I guess the truth is I kept LETTING myself get side tracked with other things. I should have TAKEN the time to exercise. It is so very important to weight loss and management. But, let's face it, the key to being successful at weight loss is not being perfect, but being consistent at making good choices. I made good choices today; I was not perfect. I'll make good choices tomorrow that include exercising first thing in the morning before things get in the way (after posting to my blog of course)!
I almost forgot to mention another thing I didn't do today. I DID NOT eat those two bags of Peanut M&Ms that are in my kitchen, and I WILL NOT do that tomorrow either! :-)
Oh, I also didn't get my 'before' pics taken today (geez...what did I do all day?!). That will be added to the 'I'll get to that tomorrow' list. I really hate that I didn't get the pics taken today, because I am going to look so different and so much skinnier tomorrow after having a good day today (don't I wish it worked that way?!)!!!!!!
I did get to take a pic of these cute little glasses I'm using as a visual for my weight loss. This is the motivational tool I mentioned this morning. In the glass labeled 'Pounds to Lose' there are 52 'markers' (glass stones). There are 52 markers because that is how many pounds I'm going to lose. As the numbers drop on the scale, I'll move the same number of markers to the 'Pounds Lost' glass. How cool is that?!!
I've had great responses to the blog and so appreciate everyone's comments and support!!

ReplyDeleteThanks Crystal!
ReplyDeleteYes, check out Crystal's web site. She has the weight loss glasses, plus many other hand painted glasses, mugs, and plates for all occasions. She does a beautiful job!!
She can even paint something special for you. She painted for me a glass that reads Days Until My Retirement. I put it on my desk and put markers in it that equaled the amount of days I had to work until retirement. At the end of each day, I'd take a marker out. The day I took the last marker out, I went home to stay!!!!
