Wow, it's been awhile...


I can't believe it has been soooo long since I've posted. I have not given up on myself or any of you, I have just been busy with Christmas, then I got really sick on Christmas day I could not even talk and spent the day sleeping. I recovered from that and then got something else right after and was sick for another week. Well, I'm all better now.....mostly, a cough here and there but, mostly better.

I have been doing my weigh-ins and as you can see they have been all over the place. I have been trying to make healthy choices still. I did get a bit overwhelmed with food at the holidays but I was still in control of my choices....some good...... some not so good! But I never felt bad about the choices I made. I allowed myself to eat things I wanted and then moved on without over doing the bad foods...just had to have a bit to get the urge out of my brain. That way I don't feel deprived and then really overdue the unhealthy foods. I even had some of the nacho chips and cream cheese that I talked about being a bad habit that I have dropped. I had some, and it was good but, I didn't eat the amount that I used to and I don't feel the need to have it all the time now. My feelings about food are changing....I can tell.

I lost 2.8 lbs. this week.....by the way I got a new digital scale, it is much easier to get my weight with this one. I'm not used to the tenths of a pound yet, I'm so used to whole numbers or guessing halves. I also got a new badge a couple of weeks ago if you didn't notice. I added the 30 pounds lost badge by the end of the year....I was so excited......then the next week I gained and put me back up but now I am back down and planning on going down even more this year!

I have been getting in some activity and doing class 2 days a week. My biggest struggle is getting in my water and eating enough veggies and eating more throughout the day, not skipping meals (then I get really hungry and want to eat everything).

One of my goals is to give myself more time to get on my blog.....me time....this is what helps me....all of you that inspire me!
