Travelin' Travelin' Travelin' On

I think that's a Dolly Parton song.

I leave on a trip first thing tomorrow morning and I now know that every part of my life must be different than "before." Before being when I was in the increase of body weight instead of the increase of strength, comfort, energy, etcetera!

Now I pack my good snacks - raisins, almonds, pumpkin seeds. And I'm bringing along my copy of Ultrametabolism by Mark Hyman. Because when I reread sections of that book, I remember why I am eating certain things and not others. Oh, and of course, the workout clothes and running shoes. When I get on the plane, since I'm flying US Air, I have to pay $15 to check my first bag... So every ounce counts! But there's no way I could be gone for 5 days and not get some serious sweating in!

The one thing I need to bring along with me is a positive attitude. I will remember that I am on a great journey - one of weight loss, one of reformation, and that my main goal right now is to transform myself (mentally and physically). And that no matter where I am, all of my choices count towards that goal.

Thanks for reading and subscribing.
