so far so good .. meaning this time I'm taking it slower and with more purpose my weight problem .. instead of looking at the whole on how much I want to lose ...I'm trying to see if I look at it as im smaller goals that I can reach ... every little bit will add up and then maybe I have a better chance to get to where I want to be.. its funny , to me that when I look at myself I don't see much of a problem .. but I guess I have been fooling myself .. so I guess this year is a bit of more of self awareness for me .. taking it slow ... walking a little bit a day and cutting back on bad food .. since its the first week and I haven't given up on myself .. so far so good ...I'm still trying to keep up on the time I spend to write a little so I can keep thinking about what I have to get done so I won't talk myself into not doing anything .. my middle that so many people ask me if im pregnant is my biggest problem .. buying clothing is the next women pants are too tight ... so I moved to men jeans ... but the only thing good about those is that they fit around my waist but aren't very figure flattering to a womans figure .. so i keep trying ... I like buying myself clothing a pretty blouse so im not too frumpy ... help some but my big front make it hard to buy what I really want to wear .. if its too tight I look too fat .. and too lose I look too fat .. the middle is where it's hard to get right ... I'm still shopping and smiling I know im not the only one so its not a total disaster so I'm still cool.... C-Ya
