Thoughts while walking . . .

The sun was already down, dropped behind the Owyhee Mountains foothills.
The moon & Mars were up high enough that I had to tip my head just a little
to look at them.

As I was coming back down the hill, the view of the Owyhees that wrap from
west to southwest to south was beautiful in the afterglow of the setting
sun.

And I thought . . .

How happy I am that I've finally taken control of my eating by joining WW.
How happy I am that I've met all of you online (some of you I already
"knew").
How much I love all the support that all of you give to me and everyone else
on this ng.
How much better I feel since I've been walking almost every day (over three
months now).
How much better I feel since I've been doing Yoga (just over one month now).
How much easier it is to climb stairs now.
How much better I feel since I'm not stuffing myself when I eat.
How happy I am that I've lost a total of 31 # since January 1, 2002 (11.8 #
since July 15, 2003)
How much better my clothes are fitting.

And I thought . . . . . . I'm happy!!!!!!

Great post Donna. I'm glad you're happy, it's a nice way to be :-)

My thoughts while walking are not quite as noble as yours. I day dream
about how I'm going to look and the things I'll do when I get to goal.
It keeps me on track and motivated.
