Progress Report

Well, I've come to the end of my journey to lose weight.  Sadly, enough I didn't meet my goal of losing weight.  However, I do have some insight into how much it takes to make a lifestyle change.   It is difficult to muster up the motivation and maintain that motivation on a day to day basis.   

I'm still taking Alli and I've lost a few pounds so far, but the one thing I've noticed was the amount of organization and planning you have to do in order to eat healthy and exercise.  It isn't always easy to keep life out of the way, especially when you are always on the move. 

I've learned two things from this exercise:

1.  If you fall off the wagon and have that cupcake, it's not the end of the world.
2. Change is a process that is ongoing.  You can't ever say you've changed.

That's all for now.  I hope to keep this blog up just for my own encouragement.
