Hollie's Week One

Well, week one went pretty good for the scales, but it was so hard for me.  

I lost 3.4 pounds, yeah.  I am feeling better as far as energy level, feeling bloated, etc.  But mentally, this has been very hard.  I am still not past the point that I believe I can do this.  It's like a mind game, daily, telling my brain-your not hungry-you just ate.....

So, that brings me back to my addiction recovery.  I have been working on my personal inventory for quite a while now.  I realize that I have so much "baggage" that in order to feel lighter, to feel worthy, to feel good about myself, I not only have to do step 5, confess, but I have to forgive and let it go.  I will not grow spiritually or otherwise until I do.  So that is what I am working on and I know with out a doubt that all this "baggage" has a whole lot to do with why I eat.......

So, bring on week 2.  I am shooting for my 5 pound sticker.....so less than 2 pounds this week, so totally doable.  This week I am going to move more.  

Let's do this......
