Firstly, thank you so much to all of you who responded to the email I sent out with the link to this blog. It was really scary and I'm not sure what I was expecting when I did it, but your support, love and encouragement is beautiful and overwhelming. Thank you. Seriously. Like a tear in the eye and a frog in my throat, thank you.
1. Write down strategies for dealing with potential roadblocks (e.g., I'm super hungry at work and forgot to bring a lunch, people order pizza in a group setting, etc.)
2. Finish reading The End to Overeating.
3. Finish reading Motivational Interviewing. It's a book on how people make changes in their lives - the stages they go through to reach real results and how to use therapeutic techniques to help them move through those stages more quickly.
I also really need to look into buying better athletic shoes. I'm using a pair of men's basketball shoes that I got for free at a clothing swap. I've already got a blister brewing, and I don't want shoes, of all things, to be a big stumbling block. We can't afford much, but I got a coupon for 20% off at Kohl's and I think I may be able to get some for like $35-$40 after the discount. Part of doing this whole thing is going to be financially prioritizing my health.
