GOTCHA!!!

Using a trail of chocolate, potato chips and other junk food (yeah, I know...), I lured it in to my trap and then GRABBED AHOLD WITH BOTH HANDS! I then pinned it with my best wrestling hold (And the only wrestling I've done is with my twin brother and my weight) and secured it as quickly as I could with a hammer and nails, glue gun, stapler, screwdriver, and lots of rope. And I'm sitting on it.

Yes, I've got my motivation back. For now. I mean it feels pretty secure at this point, but I've had a lot of false starts recently, so I'm not willing to bet on how long it's going to last, at this point. :P AND so I'm just going to take it one day, meal, step, pedal, shimmy, choice, temptation at a time. As I should've been doing all along. *Sigh...*

But today was a good day. I got up early enough to take a brisk half-hour 1.99 mile walk before work, and logged all my calories on My Plate, which came to 1576 net calories for the day. I drank more water than I have been recently, but not as much as I'd like. So overall, today has been a success! One day down - on to tomorrow!
