I knew that journaling the food down would be the big game changer.  You have the head on right, you know what you want and what you need, you just needed a new, better plan and a little new inspiration.  I am glad I could give it.  Now go and kick butt all the way to your new goal.  I am watching you.  :)

My friend my friend!

I KNOW you're watching me!! You were reading those labels and pointing them out to me in the store this morning!!! I texted a HORRIBLE revelation to you ( I know you'll get it when you have time to peek)!! The amount of darn carbs that are in things that I had NO IDEA they were in FREAKED ME OUT!! I've been chowing on carbs that I didn't know I was eating!

I actually was nervous in the store because I realized that some of my staples were now out the window and I felt new and scared all over again. But you patted me on the back...pushed me down the isles...and helped me make great choices. Thank You! What a great  and helpful hallucination you are!!!

I also bought this cool pink leather journal to use and I'm lovin' it!!

I just can't thank you enough for really whacking me on the head and opening my eyes!

This too was meant to be.  You needed your "bad" day to get things moving in a "good" way.  Let that too be a lesson.....next time, don't forget, even in the middle of the turmoil, there is a lesson and and a reason and it will eventually be revealed to me if you seek it.  Next time....remember....and be at peace. Hugs.

 

Edit to add:  Just read your text.  I am so glad you found the carbs.  Keep journaling, you will be surprised at what else you will find.  But most importantly, you will be be amazed at what you will lose.  :)
