My Report
Over the last couple months I have been making efforts at exercising more and doing better on my eating. Even though I haven't had huge amounts of pounds come off, I still feel like I have made improvements. I'm still inconsistent with doing big workouts, but have made a lot of progress in adding a lot of extra movement into my day - like walking Alia to Preschool and back instead of driving her in the car, and going on a walk for 10 minutes if that is all that I have, instead of not going because I only have 10 minutes. I'm hoping that all the little things will add up.
When I weighed myself this morning I was down a little more than 3 pounds from the last time I weight in a couple weeks ago. At least it is something! I'm hoping to lose another 5-7 pounds by the end of the month. Wish me luck!

Way to go! I think sometimes incremental steps are more effective because they are more likely to stick. Sometimes I still find myself in the mindset that I can just go back to the way I was before, but that is not the case! The changes that I need to make should be life long. It is good that you are feeling good about the changes you have made, I think that goes a long way, and helps you stay motivated.
Congratulations on finding ways to move more. I really think that is the key, doing things you can keep doing. At least we are all moving in the right direction, no matter how slowly.
Progress, no matter how small, is still progress. I feel like I really started to gain more weight when I stopped going to college because I wasn't walking around campus all the time. I think putting more movement into your life really can make a big difference.
