day 2

success!!!!!

had a great day of eating well.  could have done without the pita chips.  gosh, this losing weight stuff is hard.  i entered in all the food into myfitnesspal.com and it was a very healthy day of eating.  but if i hadn't of exercised i would have been over my calories!  it is crazy.  and the pita chips are what put me over the edge.

that's when i think...can i really do this?  give up everything that is good, even the relatively healthy stuff???

however, i had a good day, capped off with a 1 mile swim in the pool and a 2 mile walk.  eric did a great job of encouraging me which i love.  i can't do this alone, i know that.  of course, being on vacation and having him right next to me is wonderful, but not exactly reality.  but hey, i'll take it right now.

it was a good reminder today that if i really want to lose weight i am going to have to MAJORLY change my eating habits and exercise every bit of 5 days a week.  it's going to take some big steps if i want this.  i am still trying to swallow that reality.
