Daily Wins:  Still talking with the personal trainer.  She needs a medical release form filled out.   So I have not had a physical for 3 years??   Currently don't even have a primary care doc.  Truth is because she wanted this form, I almost just gave up.  My negative voice was going full force...it isn't worth it.  I don't want to.  So today I was referred to a PC doc by my friend.  I made an appointment.  The sad part is that it isn't for about 3 weeks.  But I made the appointment.  That is a huge win for me.  I am rather disappointed that I couldn't get in sooner.   Oh well.
Got 13,000 steps today.  I was surprised.  I guess the 45 min on the treadmill helped.

"Every time you start to eat, check your hunger level.  Ideally, aim for around a level of 3 to begin eating.  If you are at a 5 or above, you are not biologically hungry.  If you are at 2 or lower, you're likely over hungry and at risk for overeating."  Scale and comments taken from the book "Intuitive Eating" by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch.
