Slow and steady wins the race.

Today is the end of Day 5.
And two things have happened over the course of today and yesterday:

1. I am having mad urges to overeat. Weight Watchers teaches moderation and healthy portion sizes. I am fighting myself right now to follow that.  And I am winning that fight, but it's still REALLY hard.
This last week, I bought a new pair of jeans-in the biggest size I have ever worn-a size that is embarrassing.  THAT is my motivation every time I want to reach for more. I am motivated to go down a size, and then more, but am focusing on this first step down. I am so eager to fit comfortably in jeans a size down!

2. Water, oh water. I know that I know that I know how important it is to get that water in however I am seriously struggling to get that agua in my mouth. On Monday & Tuesday I managed to drink 8 oz. On Wednesday I got down 16 oz., and today it was 24 oz. I am getting there, it's just really slow. I have thrown out the 8 cups a day {because I believe we need much more than that} and my ultimate goal is half of my body weight in ounces every day. I will get there.

I am excited to reach Sunday and complete my first week on plan! I am even more anxious to weigh in! I have been sneak-weighing this week, so let's pray it stays good. :)

Thanks for taking this journey with me!
