So, with it having been a little over a week since my last post, I want to assure myself and anyone who may be reading this that I am alive and well. The project is also alive, and quite well.
During the course of this past week, I lost about 5 pounds. Today, is day 10 with no cigarettes. Every day, I have been making my own breakfast and packing a lunch. I haven't been stopping to buy sugar or junk. I've been walking more - not every day as perhaps I should, but certainly more than I was for months. I have even been making a conscious effort to drink more water daily.
I have finally slowed my social commitments so I am no longer running from the pain of losing Flagg, but I am dealing with it slowly, one piece at a time. I am seeing someone in a professional capacity to help me with that. It's nice to be home more, and it gives me a chance to find a routine for myself that I can settle into again. It will never be "our" routine again, but I like the security of knowing every day, I have some things that are constants.
So, that's the brief update before I run out the door to work. I am making changes and they are changes for the better. I am enjoying the benefits, both health wise and financially, of not eating out/ordering in 2 (or even 3) meals a day. I am moving more and I am currently not polluting my lungs with nicotine. All of these steps will certainly help me on the path of being better @ 30 if I can turn them into habits.
