Day 2: New Scale = New Reality

So my husband has agreed to "lose the weight" with me and decided we needed a new scale because we would both like to lose about 10 lbs. before we go on vacation July 6th.  On the new scale, I weighed in at 181.4...a little more than originally thought.  After reading Lesson 2 in the book, I realized I have to accept and love my "not-thin" self and embrace her before I can attempt to lose the weight.  This is extremely hard for me because I am not very fond of the way I have "grown" to look, so that is my goal for the next few weeks.  Also, my husband and I have started a "calorie-counting" diet through and iPhone app and I am limited to 1200 calories a day...so we'll see how cranky I am towards the end of the week...lol
