Better late than never!! I just got signed up with this group and my January goal is to exercise 4 days per week.   I had an appt with my NUT and she said I have to move to maintain my loss, and get to my goal.  But she suggests 2 days a week of regimented workout and then 2 days a week getting creative with my daughter... like skating or swimming or bike riding, something she would like.
So tomorrow, I take her to school and I am heading to the gym at work for 1 hr at least.

I am one of those people who just never got into liking exercise.  A few years ago, I read that a good way to start getting involved in planned exercise is to commit to just 10 minutes a day.  When that becomes habit for you (or whenever you feel like it, I guess), you can increase the amount of time.  That will be one of my baby-step goals for the next 30 days....starting today, I will plan to spend 10 minutes of exercise per day, and more if the mood strikes!  I know, 10 mins is nothing, but it is better than being a couch potato!

Today is my official BOTT day.....no more grazing, planned meals, fluids first when I'm head-hungry.

See you all in the cafe!

I commit to give grazing the boot! 

Over the holidays, there was too much food sitting on my counter and easily accessible.  I was baking like a maniac, so a lot of it was not healthy.  I managed to give a lot of it away, but the leftovers called out to me.  To add to it, I was constantly nibbling on peanuts and crackers.  I gained a couple pounds, rightly so. 

Here's to successful baby steps!
