Vanogay, spend a week or so tracking your food and exercise on myfitnesspal or a similar site. It is an eyeopener. I know I lose it on breakfast - it's hard to cook a small amount of oatmeal and as long as it's cooked, I may as well eat it. I decided last night to have eggs today today for that reason - hmmm, great minds think alike. I'm thinking portion control, too. I spent the first 38 of my life having to overeat to keep my weight because I had an overactive thyroid and it seems that was imprinted on my brain for too long. I eat most my meals on a Fiesta ware salad plate which is a nice size or in a shallow soup bowl. I was in two restaurants Sunday that have definitely cut down their portion sizes and it was enough.

I wish us 'enough' this week. Enough food, enough exercise, enough time decluttering (for me), enough time quilting, enough time with family, enough sleep, enough downtime, etc, etc, etc.

I AM losing weight and getting healthier.
