For once

For once I could actually say that I am surprising myself with my committment to lose weight this time. I think the most i ever worked out was like 2 days in a row every few months. Since this journey began on jan 11 i have worked out nearly everyday. I am also surprising myself with my ability to resist tempting foods. I just keep telling myself that it might make me feel good to eat it, but as soon as i do i will feel guilty. I took some photos of my body last night and put them on a private memory card this way i can see every few weeks how my body is changing. Ive noticed that i feel pretty good after working out too. I feel energized yet strangely relaxed. Hope I can keep going at this pace.

    I'm horrified!  I knew my insurance would go up due to getting a new car but I didn't expect it to go up over $2,000.  I did have an accident with the snow/ice in the winter.  I was just telling my brother that I have had my car since March 2, 2026 and have only spent $75 on an oil change.  Now this!  I called another insurance company and their quote was over $4,000.  I guess I have to pay...

    We all have 24 hours in a day.  How we spend these hours is important.  Watching a little bit of a video about how sitting affects us made me aware of how much sitting and laying down I do.  Gonna have to work on that.Your turn.  Tell me another truth.
