The past two weeks have been pretty solid weight loss. Last month I lost .1 pounds a week, but in the last two weeks I've increased that to .22 pounds a week. I've been eating within my calorie limits, not eating junk, and exercising every day. Except for last Saturday, which was a junk food fest galore. But I wasn't very hungry the next day and I think it sorted itself out quite naturally.
I found a very motivational picture which I downloaded, then created an automated process on my computer (cron job, for the geeks) to have the picture pop up on my screen every hour through the usually very snacking heavy afternoon hours. It's been quite effective. On more than one occassion I've thought of the picture while in the snack room and asked myself "Do I want these chips or that body?" and put the chips back down.
I've drawn M into it a bit as well, and asked him to not offer me beer and cookies for a while. He's being very understanding.
So, I now have a much happier, determined, positive direction. Horray!
