Back from the grocery store

Well this is it. We purchased the Dolce Diet handbook before Christmas, and FINALLY after months of putting it off, we are committing. When I say committing, I mean I just dropped $300+ at the grocery store. *Sob* But after coming home to empty cabinets and fridge, and hauling all of the new GOOD food inside, and restocking the kitchen, a feeling of excitement has come over me.
If I had to guess, I probably have not weighed myself in over two years. I am 5'5, 25 years old, and have never, ever been a size below 8. I finally weighed myself an hour ago, and I was not surprised at the number on the scale, but it is very disappointing to know I have I guess you could say "let myself go." Since I am very insecure about my weight, I wont disclose that as of yet. I feel that when I start seeing results I will feel better about sharing.
The diet is 21 days long .THREE weeks!  I'm sure I will be repeating this to myself over and over again the first few days/weeks. It's only 3 weeks, It's only 3 weeks! My goals of this experience: to loose weight of course, that is what is driving me the hardest. I want to be a healthy size, I have no plans in being a size zero! But I would like to loose at least 25lbs. Whether that happens in the 3 weeks or not, that is my #1 goal as of now.
Also, I want to FEEL better, as a whole. I want to become a  healthier person, and change the way I look at my food intake. I also want to quit smoking, and I think this diet is going to help me to do that. I have no intentions of quitting right now, I think I would loose my mind, boyfriend, and friends if I were to try quitting while I am taking on a lifestyle change like this.
Tomorrow starts a whole new day of hopefully "the rest of my life"
