So far this month I have lost 6 pounds! It's amazing how encouraging it is to see even this small amount of progress. There are still a few things I really need to work on. One is that I hate feeling hungry. I feel like scarfing down anything within reach when I feel hungry. It takes a lot of will power to not grab the cookies or chips out of the pantry when I get home from work. I need to keep some healthy snacks in the car so I can curb the hunger a little before I get home. It is hard to eat enough snacks at my desk while I am working. Another problem I have is mustering up some energy after I come home, fix dinner, eat and clean up to plan out the next day of meals. The whole planning thing should get easier as I become more familiar with the healthy choices that I find satisfying and delicious. The BIGGEST problem though is the motivation to exercise. I still don't like all that movement. But this morning I think I found the perfect time to exercise between 7 and 8. That still leaves me just enough time to shower, get dressed, eat breakfast and pack my lunch. I was only 10 minutes late to work today. It's still unacceptable but it is an improvement and I was in a much better mood.
