One Day at a Time

I woke up this morning and even though it's really blah, rainy, and dark outside, I decided right away to have a sunny disposition about the day.

See? This is me... sunny disposition. (and kind puffy too, yikes! camera?)



The second thing I decided is that I'm going to take each day as it comes, one day at a time. I'm all for setting goals, really, and of course I already have a major goal to be healthier and happier when all is said and done. BUT, I will not set my sights on 150 pounds just yet~ I'm going to start with each day, setting a few attainable goals in the morning, and seeing at the end of the day how I did.

So, for today, attainable goals:

1) Stick within 31 Weight Watchers points (yes, I've done Weight Watchers many, many, many times over the years... Will totally work if I stick with it~ the program has never failed me, I'VE failed the program.)

2) Go to the Y with Andy and do something that makes my heart rate go up for at least 30 mins.

3) Feel at least a little proud of myself at the end of the day.

So, that shouldn't be too bad. Sounds easy, I know, but it will actually be an accomplishment, even if it's small, and it will definitely be one that I will celebrate at the end of the day today.

On to food, one of my favorite things. It's 10:15 right now and so far, I've had a Slim Fast shake for breakfast. It was good! Not as good as the scrambled eggs and 6 pieces of bacon that I often get at the hospital in the morning (see, I told you, it's ugly!!!!), but it's chocolate and I love that...



It doesn't taste bad at all, in fact, I really like the 'chocolate royale shake,' but see on the container where it says 'controls hunger for up to 4 hours'? Yeah, I'm wondering who decided to write that on there because I just had it five minutes ago and I'm already hungry...
