~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Goal Setting:
Taking control

Purpose: 
Implementing lifestyle changes that will allow me to achieve my 1st goal & lose 78-80 lbs; then my secret 2nd goal & lose another 15lbs. I realize & understand this 2nd WL journey will not be as fast or seemingly "easy" as the 1st time around w/ the GBP in 2004. Im going to have to really fight for this one & continue fighting & implementing new coping mechanisms to maintain it. I am giving myself 1 year to achieve this goal before I transition into the maintenance phase (a seperate beast all together).

How will I achieve this?: 
I started this 2nd WL journey in Jan. 2012 & had the Stomaphyx on 2/6/12. Since the, Ive been on the full liquid & soft foods diets. The results have been slow but steady.
I like keeping the liquids & soft foods phase as it allows me to keep my calls in the 800-1000 range - thats working for me. I will drink more water, protein shakes, & continue taking my vitamins. I also realize that I'll probably see better results if i start exercising a few times a week. So I will take 3-4mile hikes each weekend & take the 6wk TwoHundredSitups challenge.
