I'm just back from the gym. I've lost about 5 lbs since I made my big plan. Wow.
But, surely, lost weight is just "by-product" of other changes - I feel more settled and calm, I don't feel so dependent of food any more. Sweets and cookies don't manipulate my mood.
Who knew! I wish I had made it earlier, but, I am so happy I decided to make it two weeks ago.
Best wishes to all.
