Checking in

Hello Ladies,
Today was a good day. I got a 90 minute walk in and stayed within my calorie limit. I drank water but could have drank more. I have been practicing seeing my self losing weight. 5 pounds, 20 pounds and more. It might sound kind of strange but the more I visualize my success and I seem to be more motivated to stay within my calorie limit and to get exercise at least 4 days a week.

I am still waiting to receive a letter from my son with his address at boot camp so I can write him. For those of you who know Phil, he had been thinking about the military off and on for the past 5 years. He was talked out of military several different times then he had decided to go to college and the day before classes started last fall he withdrew. He went back and forth with different branches of the military before he settled on the Marines. Then he had some medical issues , so it looked like he wasn't going to be accepted and then after months of back and forth stuff, they suddenly accepted him and shipped him out the next day. I barely had time to say good bye. I miss him a lot. But I know it is time for him to spread his wings. So for those who know Phil and would like to drop him a note or two of encouragement while he is in boot camp, let me know and I will forward you his address when I get it. Have a good week everyone.

Kimiko
