Perfect Day
I had a perfect day today! I ate everything I should, and I feel really good. I am tired, so I'm going to hit the sack. I just really wanted to write that I had a perfect day! Cool!
Glad to be back
I'm glad to be back home! It was such a nice visit that I had. It was very good for me to be able to get away and have my own time to think and ponder and visit and have a TON of girl time! I loved it! I ate pretty well while I was gone. I feel pretty good about how I'm doing as far as eating right. My energy is really doing great! I am so impressed with how my body is using the foods that I'm eating to give it energy.
Cean, Dimitri and I went food shopping today. We're all stocked up with yummy good food to eat!
I have such a feeling of support from a lot of people that are doing this challenge with me. It's great to feel so supported.
I'm ready for a new week and I'm looking forward to weighing in on Tuesday. I have decided to make a few small adjustments to my meal plan. I'll see how that goes.
You know, I think I know one of my favorite things about deciding to eat and be healthy. I love feeling like I am in control. I control when and what I eat. I think about what I'm eating and do my best to give my body the fuel it needs to run as smoothly as possible. I love being in control of what I'm putting in my body. I know that before I was in control also, but I was making such poor choices and felt so gross all the time that I didn't really feel like I was in control. I guess there is a difference to having control and being in control. I've got control and I am in control. :)
Well, I'm off to have my afternoon snack. Yum, yum!!! I love those braeburn apples I got!
I saw the commercial for Turbo Jam! I totally want it! Looks like a lot of fun. I think Anna and Rich both have it. I want it too! :)

Janie's Thoughts
I haven't blogged for quite a while, so I guess I better get blogging! Kristina is letting me use her computer. Thanks! :)
I am at a scrap booking retreat. It's nice to have this time with my sisters, Mom and two nieces. It's very nice.
I have been eating the foods that are best for me and have been wishing we had a scale here, so I could see if I have made progress. I really think I have, but we'll see.
Last week on the biggest losers website, I posted that I was going to be the biggest loser of the week! Hee hee hee....I spoke too soon! But, I am pleased to announce that Jeff, my oldest brother, was the biggest loser this past week. I knew he would do really well. He's always been an inspiration to me with continuing to try. I am very proud of him, and I hope that I can follow his example and be the biggest loser next week! :) I guess we'll have to see about that, too.
I am feeling excited to going back home to Cean and Dimitri. I have so enjoyed having this time to do whatever I want whenever I want, but I am really missing my boys. :-)
I have been thinking about the positives of getting down to a healthy weight. Some of the things that I've thought of are: I'd have more energy, I wouldn't be embarrassed to meet other people, and I'd be able to play more easily with Dimitri. I would be able to go shopping for clothes in the regular shopping area rather than having to look for the "PLUS SIZE" section. I wouldn't have a double chin! Anyway, those are just some things that I will enjoy when I get down to a healthier weight. I have noticed that I have said a couple times to myself, "I hope I can do this. Can I do this?" Before I was saying, "I know I can do this." I think that I need to kind of refocus on having more faith in myself. I do believe that I can do this, and I want to do this. I feel that I owe it to myself to be successful this time. There have been so many things that have happened to me because of being overweight, that I don't want anything else to happen that makes life so much harder for me. I know that there are challenges in life no matter what size you are, but I think that as I get smaller I won't be in as much pain from past surgeries and issues that I've had. Anyway, now I'm just rambling on and on and on......Until next time.
