Keep Going...

I know this healthy thing is getting old, but stick with it!  A friend of mine who was a personal trainer said that it takes AT LEAST 6 weeks before you start to notice a change in your body.  That's six weeks of exercise and eating healthy.  Also, if you splurge every now and then, it's ok, as long as you aren't splurging everyday or eating three pieces of cake in one day (like I did yesterday).  Don't deprive yourself, just eat healthy and make good choices...and do it all in moderation!  I haven't weighed in yet, but I'm going to today.  I'll let you know how it turns out.

I really think it took me 3 weeks to change my thinking about losing weight. Until then I was just testing the water. After 3 or so weeks I decided I could do this no matter how fast or slow. I do think it takes longer for your body to adjust to a reduced intake of fat and more healthly lifestyle. Pam

Here's another tip. List all the reasons you want to lose weight and put them in random places around the house. If you have older, thinner pictures of yourself, post them as well. This will remind you of your goal. Pam
