Post Party notes

Hannah had her seventh birthday party yesterday and it was great! Lots of friends and fun. I can safely say I didn't eat any cake or ice cream and not because I was saying no to myself, I just didn't want any, which is very strange for me.
I've been walking every day. I walked for 85 minutes today. I need to start planning the meals for the week, which is something I haven't ever really been good at, but really need to work on!
Got an awesome gift from my sister, Becki it is a wonderful photo book from Shutterfly all about our trip to Italy. Such great photos and such a great time! I am really looking forward to our next adventure together. She was so amazing and made the trip so much fun! Never would have been the same without her!
We had amazing meals and saw amazing things! I also am using that trip as the jumping off point for this weight loss and life change. I just realized that I was so slowed down and in a lot of pain because of my overweight body and I have decided that I don't deserve to continue living that way! I deserve a better life and that's what I am going to give myself.
I have about four orders to get going on here for my Etsy shop. So it's going to be a busy day plus tomorrow there is no school, so all the kids will be here, all day! :) Fun times!
Going to post a motivational picture I found today,
