One Goal Down... several thousand more to go!
I decided to make little changes - week over week instead of a huge lifestyle overhaul all at once.
1st Week - stop drinking sugary drinks. I am not much of a pop drinker - but I am HUGE on iced tea, lemonade and fruit juices. So I stopped drinking stuff with added sugar and drank mostly water. I made myself fresh juice from the juicer if I was REALLY craving it - and to drag out the juicer and put it together and then to get the fruit and cut it up and put it in - I had to REALLY be craving it!!
2nd Week - I stopped ordering out for lunch every single day at work. I started bringing my own food and healthier snacks - Kashi bars, soy nuts, carrots, sandwiches, salads.
3rd Week - I made exercise an ever morning routine. Get up kiss my husband goodbye and hit the elliptical for at LEAST 15 minutes.
I am almost done 3rd week and I have hit my first weight goal! 
Okay - so it's a deck chair off the Titanic - but it's a start and I'm excited and I feel like making these small and manageable changes one at a time is really helping me.
And I just had to toot my own little horn there.
So Toot!
