Getting in the groove

This week I feel like I'm starting to find my groove. Since this journey will probably take almost two years to complete, I need to figure out how to make it my "new normal" rather than a short-term attack. As I keep looking up points for the things I like, I feel like I can figure out how to work them in rather than making it all about eating things that just are low in points. It may mean a slower pace to my weight loss, but it will mean I'm not putting my whole life on hold for 120 weeks. For example, yesterday I really wanted a Jimmy John's Beach Club sub. I went ahead and had one but it was 21 points. Next time, I"ll split it in half and add some veggies or baked chips. Then I'll get to have it for two good meals instead of one guilty one.

The good news is my efforts are paying off. Another 3.6 pounds off this week for a total of 10!
