Today I am off to a good start. I am slowing down and savoring my food. I walked 30 minutes. I also remembered to add some produce to breakfast and lunch. Improvement is more important than perfection!
I stated that I want too loose weight and that I am doing it by making changes to my lifestyle. In order to guide me, I need to have specific goals. How else will I know if all my work is paying off?
My ultimate goals are to loose 65 pounds and fit back into my size 6 and 8 clothes. This is a lot of weight to loose. So in the spirit of my smaller steps approach, I am setting some intermediate goals. So for the next 30 days my goal will be to loose 10 pounds.
The whole reason I am doing this whole change in steps is because I have tried the all or nothing approach in the past. I tend to tackle a lot of projects like this. What usually happens that I wind up getting frustrated and overwhelmed. Even now I see what else I want to do to reach my goals, but I have given myself permission to add those activities at a later date. I already have some ideas of what I want to do add next week, but I am not going to sabotage my focus on this week's changes by adding more too soon.
