head off the pillow till it's on it. ONE DAY AT A TIME.

My daily goals are to keep my food sobriety for today. This is my only day. I'm stealing from AA, Alcoholics Annonomous. I've never been a member but I've had experience with the Big Book through OA, Overeaters Annonomous.  Today is my only day. Yesterday is gone and todays actions will affect tomarrow. I'm the sum total of all my thoughts and  actions taken to this point in my life.
     All I need to do is make good choices for today. I don't think about how much weight I have left to loose, all I can do is make smart choices for today. From the time my head raises off the pillow till it hits it is the day I have control over. One other piece I will steal from AA is the Serenity prayer. " God grant me the serenity to except the things I can not change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference." This fat loss (not weight loss or diet) is 90%  in the head. If i can control what goes in my mouth for today and eat slightly less calories then i need and move around I will loose fat and hopefully gain some muscle.
     Each day it gets easier but I must be prepared for my old habits are just below the surface. The only difference now is that when I do fall "off the wagon" it's not flat on my face. I can jog along side it and hop right back on. :)
