Well, it was a my first Week 1 + 1 day weigh-in since rejoining WW and
beginning the Core for the first time..... and down an amazing 9.8 lbs!  I'm
tickled pink and really needed the boost, as I'm a little nervous about
traveling by car during the next couple of days for a long-distance 6-mo.
post op visit for 13yo DD (who had spinal chord surgery last summer).  I'm a
little anxious about the traveling part, but I'm trying my best to plan
ahead by loading the car cooler with fruits, boiled eggs, sliced turkey,
bottled water, etc.  I'm sure that while ordering her meal at the McDonald's
drive-thru, they'll get the chance for a change to hear a garbled voice on
the other end, as I chomp on a "fry prevention" apple. <g>

My goal this week is to try really hard (and a long car ride is a good place
to start) to mentally attack and counter all the negative speak that finds
its way creeping into my mind.  Things like, "yeah, you'll do well for a
couple of weeks like you always do, then give up" or "just one won't hurt"
or "oh, but you have such a long way to go, it's almost useless."  Thoughts
like that can creep into a persons psyche almost undetected sometimes.  But,
I'm gonna detect it and reject it, by gum. <bg>

Thanks to you all for your inspiration this week... even if I've been mostly
just lurking... cuz I have most definitely been reading and feeling
inspired.
