I had hoped for a couple more pounds lost this month, but at least I am finally losing instead of gaining! I just have so much more to go to get where I want to be . . . and I like to eat, so it just makes it more difficult.

I’m counting calories and trying to keep them at a reasonable number each day, plus keeping a food diary to make myself accountable. I am also trying to make an effort to get in some activity, which I really, really need!
