Today, the first day, when willpower is at it's all time high, the world seems like rainbows and unicorns.  I always feel like I can conquer the world and that one song comes to my head..."oh what a beautiful morning, oh what a beautiful day.  I've got a beautiful feeling, everything's going my way!"  Oh how I wish I could feel like this EVERY DAY for the next 6 months.

I woke up with a lot of resolve this morning and I feel like I did pretty good.  We had a hawaiian bbq lunch at work and I ate very minimal portions of everything.  I ended the day with a little higher calorie count than I usually have but I was still below my max calorie count for the day. 

If I meet my goal I will be 9 lbs from my goal weight when this thing ends on April 6th.  Do I have the willpower, the dicipline and the motivation to hang in there for 6 months?  Almost every day, on my bulletin board in my bedroom, I look at a quote that says "A year from now you will wish you had started today.".  I did start today and I hope at the end of 6 months I am not wishing but saying "I FREAKIN' DID IT!!!!"

DAY ONE - FEELING PRETTY DANG GOOD!  Bring on day two...
