Starting Again

File under: emotions, journals, starting

Ok here I go again. (LOL. Like the old Whitesnake song but I’m talking about something different. Boy that song just shows how old I am. LOL) Since I started this site I lost 20 pounds started 270 got to 250. Then along came Halloween (I did ok) then Thanksgiving (again I did ok) Christmas is another story….I am one of those that bakes, bakes, bakes and bakes some more. Family and Friends wait for thier Christmas tin from me. Wait and EXPECT. Specially family since my grandmother can no longer stand and bake cookies and candies I guess its been handed down to me which is fine b/c I LOVE to bake. I also LOVE to eat the fruit of my labor. So I knew I could defeat it so I quit worring about my weight Xmas and of course I gained 10 pounds back. (Now I am at 260) Actually I did better then I thought.

So now I need to start again. We have moved and my gym is no longer 5 minutes away its more like 30 minutes away. My hubby has some kind of work out machine at his work. Sounds likes its kinda like an ellipitcal machine. Then his boss no longer wants and said my hubby can have. Now he just needs to bring home.

No more excuses and I have a pocket full of them. I have plenty I can do in the house for excercise. (I live in Northern Indiana) and its way too cold and snowy to go for walks. But I do have a handful of Leslie Sansone Walk tapes and I also have a stepper for step aerobics. Now this new machine my dh has to bring home.

I need to learn how to eat again. Stop the SWEETS and SODA. My 2 biggest downfalls. I wanted to start a blog for my day to day thoughts. i belong to CafeMom which I love but I ahve to watch what I post because my stepdaughter is on that as well. I dont want to blog something just venting about the stepkids or my dh and have her read it and take it the wrong way, Yet I think I need somewhere to write and get opinions and ecouragment. I had forgotten about this site so here I am. 

I have lots to say some about weight issues some about everyday issues that might be holding my weightloss back or the issues might somehow affect my weight or be because of my weight.  Therefore, for the next couple days thier are going to be alot of blogs getting all this out. Some will be long. Like this one is turning out to be. So you can read them or not…….Your choice I just need to write.

Thank Ya    Thank Ya

    YOU GO GIRL! You can do this. We all have to start somewhere. You sound so much like me. My biggest weakness has always been sodas and sweets. I finally got away from the hard stuff and got used to the diet variety and have cut down to one or two at the most a day. It really ahs helped. I also found Nabisco thin crisps to satisfy my sweet craving. They are only 100 cals a bag and have really helped to keep me away from my BIGGEST weakness of chocolate. Every little step counts. I am looking forward to keeping up with your progress. Together we can end up with killer bods. LOL
