Weigh in: 1.9 lost, 167.3 to go (AND MY 100TH POST!!!!)

I am very happy to report a loss of 1.9 today! I was back on track with my eating this week. I didn't get much exercise in because I was sick a couple of days and was swamped trying to get my Finance project done. I should be able to get in more exercise in the upcoming week though.

I feel like I am slowly gaining more consistent control over this process of losing weight. And with this being my 100th post, I feel the need to reflect over what has changed since I started this blog in April 2008. First of all, I am actually heavier than I was then. I was around 315 in April but had some setbacks and ended up at a new all-time high of 334.6. So maybe the numbers on the scale haven't changed for the better during this time but some other things have. Namely:

• I have added consistent exercise to my weekly routine.
• I am kinder to myself and have stopped beating myself up when I slip.
• I am more aware of the reasons I eat emotionally and, recently, have even been able to stop myself from eating emotionally before I start.
• I feel certain that this is my time and I will achieve my goals. I did not start out with this confidence.

I am definitely on my way!!!!
