Almost two weeks in, and this is SOOO much like catching up with an old friend. I'm already down a couple of pounds, and I feel a renewed optimism and enthusiasm for the process itself. I'm having a blast reminding my body just what it's capable of. The downside? I love to run, and it is mockingly cold here now! No, really. I wake up, look outside, and I hear laughter. I hate you, winter. Now shut up.

In related news, I like the change from the simplistic WW points to the more complicated (but detailed- and I like details) individual number tracking of Sparkpeople. I'm not bashing WW by any means, the program helped me drop over 30 pounds, so I am very grateful. But SP just feels right and proper. The main thing is that I have to have a greater sense of accountability here. If I'm not accountable to me, then none of this really matters then, does it?

I'm even reacquainting myself with Leslie Sansone.

Walking. What a concept!
