Wed. Feb. 23

I have found "Plant your own garden" a great way to live my dreams.  Whether piano accomplishments or strides for better health.  No one will give out 'atta girls' when you are doing something they would like to do!  I was told that was called a form of envy; not the biblical envy, just envy light I guess.  I am looking forward to Saturday's weigh-in because I've settled into a healthy eating plan that I can sustain long-term.  And that was my goal from the beginning.  I needed motivation, needed to regain self-control.  I heard if you do something for 90 days you will create a habit.  Let the next months prove that out.    See you Saturday.
