Week: 2

accountability:
[e-kaun-te-'bi-le- ]

1. the quality or state of being accountable

2. an obligation or willingness to accept
responsibility or to account for one's actions

I can't believe, I got through this week! I can't believe, I exercised as much as I did...6 Days and 11.6 miles later! I can't believe, how gratified I feel! I'm in a state of euphoria and hope it last!

The feeling, I felt last Monday when all of you responded with such love, support and kindness was really quite remarkable, something I have never felt. By sharing with all of you, I shed my first 50lbs, the pounds I was destine to gain had I not started on this journey!

Thanks, again for listening to me, supporting me and sending me such great energy (I feel it everyday!). It is helping me more, than I can say.

It has really surprised me how much this blog is helping, as well as my new TISM e.mail group. It never occurred to me how much accountability matters in this puzzle of good health, not only to myself but to all of you. I think about it all the time now, every time I eat and every time I exercise. It's quite amazing how much it helps keep me on track.

Ok, so now comes the great news my stats for the week!

Are you all ready....I didn't believe it, even though I know how hard I worked.........I weighed myself 3 times, just in case I was reading the scale wrong!

YAY MEEEEE!!!!!!

Start: 365
Current Week: 2
Lost: 10
Total Lost: 10
Current: 355

YES, that right 10 pounds, I have never done that in a week! I know, all my weeks will not be that glorious but it's a fantastic way to start!

Here we go....week 2: starts today, and I am looking forward to it!

I have never felt better, emotionally or physically!

Today was a SPECTACULAR DAY!

xoxo,
Ingie

Ingrid, that is amazing. I think what I loved reading most is how you walked and watched your show. How subtle little changes make a difference. Way to go on you first week of the rest of your life!
