Up and Moving! and Loving Life!!!

While my No S diet is in full swing and absolutely wonderful, I've finally gotten up and moving. Two days in a row I've walked 2 miles. 2 MILES!!! I don't think I've ever walked that far. hehe! Yesterday (my first day) I just kinda walked out of my house and kept walking around my neighborhood and circled back home. Later in the day I drove the path I took to see how long it was and as I pulled into my driveway it was 1.9 miles, so close to 2 miles that I just had to push myself the extra tenth of a mile today, which wasn't very hard. My plan is to lengthen my walk a little bit every week and maybe even in the not so distant future add in some light jogging (which is a big deal for me). The best thing about all of this is I'm finally able to put Successes in my HabitCal for walking and I feel so good about myself for really doing it, and it's absolutely addicting, I actually look forward to my walks and I can't wait to see some results!
That's all for now!

My first S Day Experience

Ok so after Thursday's bump in the road I was very strict on Friday and then Saturday came. I had been anticipating Saturday all week and it finally came! I was surprisingly ok without seconds or sweet all week and I was feeling really good about NoS considering it was my first week, but I still anticipated the weekend pretty fiercely. I don't feel like I was an idiot about the S days, but now looking back on them I think I could have brought it down a notch or two. Considering it was my first time with S's I did a pretty decent job. And yesterday was Easter, while my mom and I didn't really do anything special I did however make chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast (those are one thing I had been craving all week for reasons I can't seem to put my finger on) and after we went to the movies (with no ridiculously expensive snacks) the two of us split the Cadbury Egg that I had gotten at the Candy Store a few days before. Other than that Sunday was pretty harmless, I can't say that honestly about Saturday though, but I know feeling guilty about it isn't the point.
Now that I've started Monday off on the right foot once again I think I'm going to wrap this up and head outside for my first real Urban Ranger walk! I can't wait to see that first Success on my HabitCal which will hopefully stir up the motivation to keep the Calendar Green from here on out!

On A Side Note: Mom and I saw Sunshine Cleaning yesterday. It was a very good movie, maybe a bit odd, and definitely a chick flick, but I really enjoyed it. I would recommend it. =)
