Last Post

This is going to be my last post for a little while. I'll be back, if things go well, in about eight or nine days. (It isn't that I'm not committed to my diet, but simply won't be near a computer for most of the time.)

Thank you to all who've sent well wishes and prayers for my father.

I will remain absolutely committed to sticking to my diet, making good choices, and even drinking more water! I'm even taking a few books with me on health/diet-related topics to keep me company, during the down times I'll be sitting at Dad's bedside, watching him rest.

I expect good reports from everyone, when I get back online! :)

And I'm going to put this in writing - I WILL lose weight this upcoming week, even if just a half pound. There, I said it. And I meant it.

One of my girlfriends said it isn't likely, and I'm setting unrealistic expectations of myself. I'll be doing a lot of sitting, a lot of waiting, a lot of eating whatever is provided.

She's wrong.

Where there is a will, a determination, there is a way to make it happen.

So, I'm putting it in writing - I WILL lose weight this upcoming week.

Be good! I'll catch up when I return.
