The Honeymoon Phase

It's pretty safe to say that I'm in the "Honeymoon" phase of this journey. My decision to lose 100 pounds is sort of like a new toy with a fresh set of batteries. I'm trying to be realistic without raining on my own parade yet I can't help but feel excited.

Mostly, I'm excited because it's only three days into my prep phase and I already feel so much better. All I've done is cut out processed junk and increase my water intake. It's remarkable how such small changes can make a huge difference. There's a little part of me that angry with myself for waiting so long. I "know" the right things to do. I "know" they'll make me feel better.

Our road trip today was pretty comical. My newfound relationship with water forced us to stop no less than 7 times during our 500 plus mile journey. I have become very familiar with the rest areas in Tennessee, Kentucky and Ohio. Tennessee rest areas are the best. Kentucky rest areas are the absolute worst!

Cheers!
Margaret
