Happy

This is going to be short and to the point today and I'll use a photo to explain how I am feeling on my journey day 15:



Yeah that pretty much sums it up.

This is the first day of week 3 with my trainer and I feel good because I have, by my best guess, lost between 4 and 5 pounds, but even better than that am not distracted by the idol of food. It's amazing.

No I'm not saying I don't have temptations, nor am I saying I don't indulge (my trainer wouldn't exactly approve), but I feel so much freer from the shackles of my lust over food, at least at this point. It feels amazing.

I have a long way to go but it feels good to succeed at least with little steps. The true test will be the long term. That's what Wally and I want, a lifestyle change.

We'll do our best.

We are thankful.
