No, not the pounds – the cars (no, not mine, except a bit and not into anything thankfully). Winter returned to West Michigan today with a vengeance, just in time for the morning commute. Bonnie, if you sent the snow this way, thanks but no thanks.

Well, my first day of the new challenge was not a big success but not a complete failure either. I’ve decided to think of it as a step in the right direction. One step yesterday and two steps today and then three tomorrow. What’s that famous quote about a journey of a 1,000 miles beginning with one step? Today is another day and I’m ready to begin again – today and every day. I feel really committed this time (no jokes please that I should be committed, even if it's true, which it probably is). Of course, that little voice in my head tells me that I feel that way every time I start a diet, and I do. But all I can do is try, really truly try my best. And try to believe I can do it. Then, one day soon those nasty old pounds will be slip sliding away too!

I hope everyone has a fit and fabulous day!!

hugs, Nancy

Hey NAncy you can't blame me, we've not had a flake up north here!! LOL!! Now southern Wisconsin, yeah, they had snow. 

Glad things are starting to go on the right track.  Just keep it up one day at a time!! :)B

I’m so sorry, Bonnie, that I maliciously cast aspersions on your weather sending efforts. Actually, you’ve been doing an exceptional job lately. We’ve had a very mild January, with almost 40 days in a row with above normal temps. In fact, the weather folks say this will probably be the warmest January ever in the country. Gotta love that global warming. Unless you’re a frog. Or if you have children or grandchildren who might not want to relocate to another planet. Our snow is gone now and things are very quiet here – so thank you, Bonnie!
