Yes, I am calling it a success even though I popped a green bean in my mouth while out in the garden. I did it without thinking. I thought "oh" and then spit it out. :lol:

So yesterday was a failure and my weight today was 176.6 down about 3 pounds this month but most of that was this week when I decided to count calories. My thoughts about where I want to go with my eating are all mixed up right now. I do know that I want to stick with the principles of No S, I certainly don't need to be snacking and eating sweets everyday, lol, and the S days are nice to have. I am not sure I want to count calories daily either but the last week showed me that I do need to eat less than I was even with vanilla No S. Then add to the mix that I am taking up running and have completed two weeks of couch to 5k and want to take up trail running. I am very excited about this and even know when my first race will be. (4/2011, 5k) I have always admired runners and see no reason I can't be one myself. :D So No S is definitely a tool in my weight loss journey tool box but I think I am going to stop this daily success/failure tracking because I am not finding it helpful, I'd rather have it be principle than rule. I think I am going to go with smaller breakfast and lunch plates and see how it goes from there. :D

I wrote this on Facebook today.

I have an awesome body.

No, I'm serious. I have carried and birthed six babies without complications. (Thank you Lord) I am physically able to all the things I desire to do. I can care for my family, farm, animals, garden, etc. without any physical hindrances. (Again, thank you Lord) My body is amazing and I am blessed to have the body I do. Today I am mostly thankful that I can run because that is what I have decided to do when I grow up, I want to be a runner.
