Yay!! Your positive attitude is taking you where you want to be!! Good for you! Sounds like you are losing fast. I am 5wks 2 days out and have only lost 21 lbs. I am ok with that. I am jealous, I too walked in the mornings, got 3 wks in and up to 1 1/2 miles, and fractured my ankle bone- been off feet for a week, hope not to much longer. loved your line " disappointed when my walking ends!" I agree! Dee

Doesn't being able to walk easily and without pain rule?? The change I find most encouraging is that you're starting to think about food in different ways. Tiny portions are becoming the new norms. Simple foods like chickpeas taste great! The importance of protein looms much larger in our thoughts. Junk foods begin to assume their proper place as poisons. I've found I don't like sandwiches anymore; the bread tastes sickeningly sweet to me. It's the attitude changes that will see you through to goal and beyond. Congrats!

Yes!! I actually look forward to my walks and am going on a hike I haven't done in YEARS tomorrow and am so excited! It helps that the weather is finally B E A U T I F U L here in Arizona...makes me really want to be outside. This is the time of year that rewards us for making it though the terrible, hot summers!

Great job, Suzy!

It will come. I didn't have an energy explosion like some say they experienced but I definitely can tell a difference!
