Yesterday was a good day for me. I kept it below 1500 calories and I ran a 10K, 6.4 miles. I haven't run that far in about a month, it felt great to be able to do that. I feel pretty good today. I woke up early on Sunday morning, had breakfast and coffee, and took the dog for a walk in the rain-cooled weather. I think I will go to the gym and walk today. I feel a little sore, and just gently moving my body probably would be a good idea. If I'm not going running, I like to walk about 4 miles at the gym on the track. I feel like I need to affirm my commitment to losing more weight every day. I feel like I have 40 more pounds to lose. I weigh 178 right now, I think if I got down to 138, that would be a healthy size for me. I'd like to get down to my high school weight, but I am not sure that goal is reasonable. I am 40 years old. I don't see myself being able to duplicate a weight when I was 16 years old. That goal seem insurmountable. I think I just need to take goals as they come. My main goal right now is to fit into my size 8 jeans. That is not going to require me to weigh 120 pounds. That is not even going to require me to weight 140 pounds. I think if I could lose 15 to 20 pounds I could get into an 8. So that's what I'm shooting for. That and just putting time together one day at a time.

I think making small goals is a great idea. I keep looking at the big picture, and that can be so discouraging for me when I have about 100 lbs to lose.
