Today marked the first day of my weight loss summer program. (lol) I bought celery, grapes, apples, carrots, diet tea, yogurt and whole grain cereal (1% milk). My goal is to snack on at least a little bit of each every day so that I am never hungry, always full. And full of the good nutritious stuff. I ate a bowl of cereal today (no sugar) and have so far eaten a delicious red apple and some vanilla yogurt (which was also very good). I'm really optimistic about all this because, well, it's food I really like...and I'm never going hungry. I'm not saying I won't be tempted to eat the greasy hamburger (actually, I was more tempted by the turkey, provolone and parmesan bread sandwich Mandy made today) but at least I'll be less tempted. I'm hoping this is a really good plan. I'll also be exercising every day (I started out with 10 sit-ups and 20 jumping jacks. I may put in running/walking at some point), which I already did for today.
Honestly, I'm excited. And I'm proud of myself for finally cracking down on it. The whole eating unhealthy thing was really getting to me. I'm ready to act and do it.
