2. I have a beautiful daughter who needs a healthy Mommy.
3. I can cook really tasty pretty healthy meals and I enjoy cooking.
4. I live on a street that I can walk and push my baby without worrying about traffic.

5. I have done a little planning.
As I was taking my walk today I realized that I have lost weight before when my life was more hectic and out of control. I think that actually helped since I got ubber organized to cope so here I am trying to get organized. I did realize that there is nothing holding me back but me.
As I was blow drying my hair I realized that I am wacky when it comes to exercise. If I cannot do it before my shower, I won't. I hate to sweat and I sweat just thinking about being hot. I mean buckets. I don't like to take more than 1 shower a day so I tend to not exercise if I can't fit it on before a shower. Waking up before dawn is not really an option for this non morning person. Therefore....I must learn to just exercise when I can. If this means a change of clothes or a quick shower then so be it. I might not sweat so bad when I a thinner. I also have the motivation to get more steps than my husband. Nintendo DS Personal Trainer Walking. I really want to be number 1 on that thing but he walks so much at work. When I go back to work Aug 25 I can get more steps.
Finally...I bought a Pandora bracelet. I used to have a Zopini but people bought me charms and 
I filled 2. None had the meaning that I wanted for achievements. I rarely wear it anymore. When I went to the jeweler today to get my watch I looked at the Pandora bracelets and used my birthday money to buy one with 3 charms. One is a little girl to remind me of why I am doing this. One is my daughter's birth month and one is mine. I have looked at the catalog and picked a few charms for milestones. My first will be when I lose my 10%. I will get another when I get my house in order and keep it that way. Another for exercising at least 5 days a week for 2-3 months. My goal weight is a charm with a heart and key just like the key chain WW gives. I am very excited about adding to my bracelet for achievements.

Those Pandora beads! They can be a little addicting. Stumbled on your blog - always looking to read fellow weight loss/pandora bead bloggers. Good luck in your progress; it's simple ... just not easy.
