My Journey Begins
Mel is in today and at lunch time we went for a walk to Coles to get some salad. Mel has found a bag of plain salad for $1.99, all free points, that lasts for 2 lunches. I added 1/4 chook, leg, no skin and some WW dressing. All up only 3 points. I was a bit hungry so had a WW bar. First day finished I ate exactly 23 points. Exercise 0 points. Mel and I are going to the Kylie concert on 20 May and Mel's goal is to get into a pair of jeans that she wants to wear. She asked me if I had a goal, was there something I wanted to fit into for the concert. I said yes. The seat!!! How honest is that. It made me realise how large I had become and that I really wanted to change. Today was a good start for that change. I had one moment of realisation how much I had been eating without thinking, when I purchased a new bus ticket. The guy I buy it from runs a tabocconist and lolly store in the foodcourt. Now normally I would have bought one, perhaps two, bags of lollies. Banana's, milk bottles, or perhaps bullets. When I went through today I just bought the ticket and thought about what I would normally have done. I am very pleased with myself.
