It's not like I just woke up one day to realize I was a bit too "rounded". I didn't think "If I could just loose 10 lbs". I wasn't told by my doctor that I had to loose weight. I hadn't recently outgrown all of my clothes....
Instead, just like in the universe when spontaneous combustion occurs, there were so many things that finally put me on the end of the weight loss diving board. More things than I can begin to list. Except the very most important reason is that I decided to do it for me, myself and I.
On January 23rd, when I found myself on "the day", I started looking for the plan that would work for me. I read one blog, that lead to another blog and then onto another which in the end directed me to www.caloriecount.about.com.
Deep inside I knew that weight loss, health and fitness meant changing my eating habits. I didn't want to buy someone elses food. I didn't want to have to convert calories & data to points (why add one more thing!). I certainly wasn't interested in any drugs to help with my quest. I love to cook. My husband LOVES what I cook, as do my daughters (especially the one still living at home!). I knew my love for cooking would not change. So I knew that my intake of the food I cook would have to change.
Thats when I began counting... that very morning of January 23rd.
