no, my new year’s resolution isn’t to blog more often…
but it is to do things that will help me continue to lose weight.
let me catch you up…
blogging and working is really hard for me. going back to work in general was hard, but i feel better about it now. my hormones have settled down, and thus, my emotional rollercoaster is now more like a tilt-a-whirl that tips once a month. on the diet front, i have found something that really works consistently for me: weight watchers. i love low carb…and i love body for life. i have kind of incorporated those meals into me daily point talleys. balancing my carb and protein makes me feel great and stay fuller, longer. but, being able to count points lets me feel more in control and know the calories of the foods i am putting in my mouth. doing this, i have lost about 18 pounds since october 31.
that was my weight loss total on december 19…have not really weighed since then. and i won’t until the end of the week. i did not really count points over christmas, and drank quite a bit. so, i’m giving myself a break until friday.
christmas here was wonderful. hope your’s was the same.

So excited you are back on here! I ran tonight… long time… feeling good about it but a little weak. I may have over done it for my 3 day back! Anyway, the body will adjust. I am finally throwing away all the stuff I shouldn’t eat that we accumulated during the holidays… some of it bad… some of it really bad. Went to the grocery store today to get new food. Keep me updated. It really helps me to process!
