A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Lao Tzu
This quote perfectly sums up how I feel about today. Today I started a new journey. I joined WW (formerly Weight Watchers. I am tired, I am sore, I get winded turning over in bed. I am 45, too young to feel like this.
Why now? Why WW? I saw myself in on a security screen at Walmart. My son hugged my and couldn't put his arms all the way around my body. Even while looking up, I have a double chin. I am so unhappy with how I feel and how I look. I want to have energy. I want to be able to run five feet without feeling like I may pass out. I want to be able to clean my house without sweating buckets. I start today.

My brain tells me I'm still hungry, but my body isn't asking for more food. I read an article yesterday about a 21 year old girl that lost 100 lbs using WW. It was inspiring to me because she described feeling just like I do. I know I can do this.
