I think John Travolta read my book...

That's right I saw him on that Kelly without Regis Show this morning and I have to say, he was talking my language. The truth about taking control of one's weight is to understand that it is not a matter of speed but rather one of patience that gets us to the goal.
I appreciate it that he was on the show talking about his new movie Savages directed by Oliver Stone, and I appreciate that he lost the weight in his own way, but John no mention of possibly having read something that assisted you on the journey to taking the weight off and keeping it off?
You know I'm kidding don't you John? I don't need that. Hello?
John?
Uh, I'm here - waiting by the phone...
John..?

Day #2 - I Can Lose It - Again:-p

Today my weight remains the same, and my spirits remain high. As usual I walked both directions to and from the subway. This effort results in 24 minutes of walking at a fast pace which is equal to 168 calories, or in layman's terms 2 2/3 of my favorite Brent & Sams Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies. (Disclosure: Why yes, that is a link to Amazon - if you use it and then end up buying anything there - I make a few cents:) Also today I watched a  half hour TV program while using the eliptical trainer (it is cold outside, ya know?). I am now officially ahead of the game. We shall see what happens by next Sunday:-) Hint: I've been down this raod before, and I know exactly where I'm heading... 


That's the thing, isn't it? I want to continue to eat a cookie or two if I darn well want to, and I need to be willing to take full responsibiltiy for what that means, if I really intend to be in control of my weight.


Life is good. 


Making choices is what we all do every day anyway.


See you tomorrow.
