OK so how many of you have seen the movie What about Bob? It stars Bill Murry as a man with OCD who has to do everything with baby steps! Now I do not have OCD, but I do understand baby steps.
So many times I am telling myself "Amanda baby steps to the five pound weight lose" "baby steps to the one mile walk" "baby steps to the food I buy" "baby steps to the food I cook" These are baby steps I have to take everyday in my life. One of my faviort quotes from What about Bob is "Baby steps to the bus" now if you know this moving it is Bob trying to get on a Bus for a first time and him rememebering that he needed to take it one step at a time to make it to the Bus.
This is how I feel right now in my life that I need to be taking those baby steps. This week I got really sick. I honestly thought at some point I would die because my body felt so bad. But taking those baby steps to the fridge to get my veggies and juice to eat. Baby steps to take a walk outside to get fresh air helped so much. I was still able to get in all of my 8 serveing of fruits and veggies everyday even with being sick, it is what my body craved. I found that to be funny, because I thought I would want someone else, but nope I eat so much fruits and veggies. I took those small baby steps and felt better.
So I ask you how many of you are you taking Baby Steps or taking Big Steps???? This is why I love Mamavation because it has taught me to take my baby steps. I did take a big step and said I will lose weight and I am losing it, but it has to be little baby steps as well. Thank you so much everyone for supporting me and be there for me. I am so proud to be a mamavation sista! Till next week! Amanda

Great job with your baby steps and getting in your fruit and veggies!! Keep up those baby steps this week!
Keep it up! I'm starting with baby steps too!
Amanda it has been sad watching you be sick this week :(
Feel better soon and kudos to you for getting your freggies in!
Baby steps, one day at a time. That is the way to go. Good for you getting all of your fruits and veggies in. I am sick right now and am going for bread and jello!
Baby steps is the way to go especially working out. That can keep you from getting injured. I hope you feel better soon! I'm back to baby steps because I injured myself. *sigh* but I hope to feel better soon.
If I've learned anything through all of this is that it is the baby steps that truly count and add up! I'm sorry to see you've been so sick and am sending you get better VIBES!! Way to go on your weight loss so far and I can't wait to follow the rest of the journey with you! xo
OMG, I haven't seen What About Bob in forever! I need to watch it again! I'm happy you're feeling better! You've been doing so great w/everything. I'm so proud of you! *hugs*
It sounds like your baby steps are getting you exactly where you need to be. CHoosing healthy food over traditional "comfort food" when you are sick is a HUGE step. Good work!
I'm right there with ya with the babysteps. that's all I've got.
