Still going forward

So, I was going to post this blog weekly and name them by week numbers. Well, I don't have to tell you that didn't happen. However, I have continued to lose weight. Not a lot, but so far I've lost 3 pounds. It's so much better than the other way, and 55 by 55 is still a healthy goal. Going forward, thoughts of how to make this more interesting, challenging, attainable, and to be more accountable consume my thoughts. The one idea that might make a début in a few weeks is to post a food journal. While still playing with the idea, I think it’s a winner. The mere act of writing down everything that is taken in by mouth is an eye opener in itself. Getting into the habit of it takes a little extra kick in the tush, but publicizing this to all of you will surely keep me accountable. I asked my daughter how this blog can reach more people. I want to hide it away and not post on my FaceBook page, but she quickly corrected me. Since I'm wanting to be accountable, and wanting some encouragement and prayer for this journey, the best way is to post these blog posts on FaceBook. So, move forward I will. Maybe by my next blog I'll have decided if the publicized food journal is a go.
