The dreaded "Day 2".....

I think the 2ND day is always the hardest. Most say the 1ST. Nope. That is the day you are full of pride and intention. The next day, it begins to wane a bit. The new wears off and you realize this is going to take a lot of work. Well, I am not afraid of a little hard work. I have successfully lowered my sodium intake as well as calories and fat. I have managed to be consistent with my exercise, which means I went walking again today instead of coming home and flopping down on the couch. (Oh, comfy couch! How you taunt me!) My blood pressure has come down as well. I went from hypertension range to pre-hypertension range. That was awesome! Perhaps I will live to see the fall semester. I realized today that I really want this. I want to be healthy. Even when I felt hungry, I made good decisions instead of caving in like I usually do. Small victories, right? I haven't weighed yet. Maybe I will post it weekly. I'm still working on that one. Anyway, thanks for reading again today. Fat girl survived another day of good health! I'd jump for joy, but it might register on the Richter scale....
