I saw a doctor and they told me I have mild depression and that is partly why I over eat and emotionally eat so until I fix that I probably cant fix my weight.

How I did it
It made me
Elated! 
How I did it: I worked on one section at a time. ie-kitchen counters, cabinets, drawers. Than do just that section for now. and then later do more. I got my kitchen living room and bedroom done in two weeks. After that was easy to set a goal of like computer desk and then just work in small sections and get it done. Read how I did it…
It made me
Elated
How I did it: I forgot about this as a "goal" but still went hiking about a week ago. I took all my kids and we all went up South Mountain. I picked a easy to moderate hike so the kids could do it and they loved it and when we were done they were happier and calmer than normal. Not really tired just calm. I am going to go more often.

It made me
happy
How I did it: I finally made myself create a blog at blogger.com and then just blogged about anything I thought was important or funny or cute or dramatic. or even things like my dishwasher breaking. and then it felt natural to just blog and keep track of the things I want to remember later on.

Still working on this
6 months ago
I am now keeping track of everything I eat so I know what and how much I eat. I am also keeping track of what I do for exercise. I have lost a whole 4 pounds but whatever I am still doing it.
I am doing this again
6 months ago
I haven’t been working on this for a while but I started up again last week and am doing well. I worked out once last week and so far 4 times this week. I am still eating some sweets but not as many or as much as before and have lost 5 lbs. So I am going to keep chu-chu-chugging along to keep losing more. I want to lose at least 60 more! but could lose maybe 70 lbs to be perfect weight again. We will see.
