So far so good. My day at the beach was just as great as expected. Beautiful warm sunny day. Walked about two miles in the sand, and ate only what I should. My son made it home safely from his prom night, my daughter calls almost everyday to share the little daily updates with Henry (six weeks old yesterday), my husband is making sales, all is wonderful in my world right now. At work, I am no longer sitting everyday in an office next to the kitchen (where breakfast and lunch are normally catered daily), I am working in the front office and am on my feet most of the day. The first two weeks I was unsure if I could handle it, but don't even notice it anymore. I make sure that I eat a breakfast of either eggs or milled flax seed bread, and come home for lunch daily to whatever is left over from the night before (today will be a left over turkey burger). I did walk for thirty minutes yesterday when I got home from work, and felt great. I want to start out slowly this time instead of pushing myself to fast in the beginning and then burning out quickly. Right now I am committing to walking thirty minutes five days a week. If I do more that's great, but I certainly don't want to do any less.
