Weigh-In

Wow! Has it really been a week since I last posted? I've guess I've been really busy with the new job. LOL

This weigh-in didn't go as well as I had hoped, but I did lose 1 lb. Yay for that!!! I'm still trucking on and keeping my fingers crossed for better numbers next week. :-)

Still going strong!

Just wanted to pop in and tell you all that I'm still going strong. I worked 11 hours over the past 3 days and I think that's helping me stay on track. When I'm home I have a tendency to graze on all the bad stuff.

I know I'm probably the last person on the planet to know this, but I just found out that there's a new season of The Biggest Loser (USA version) starting next week. I can't wait! I set the computer to record it just in case I forget. :-)

In other news, I just updated my links over there on the side and added my new friends that have commented recently. I deleted the old links where people haven't posted to their blogs in a few months, too. Just doing a little housekeeping!

Have a great weekend!

Day 562 (or Day 1 on the restart)

Weight: 247.4
Total Lost: 70.2

Here we go again. I'm still going to count my start date as back in 2006. It will, however, make my "lbs. per week average" look bad...oh well.

Yesterday went great. I think this working thing is really going to help. When I'm sitting around the house I have a tendency to graze. Yesterday I even put up a couple of cookie ads (the empty container ones that stick from the shelf) and it didn't even bother me. Woohoo! Giving myself a pat on the back for that one! LOL

Well I'm half asleep and need to get in the shower so I can wake up and get my day started. Just wanted to post so my 2 or 3 readers know I haven't wandered off again. :-)

Almost there!

Just 10 hours from now my kids will be heading off for school. Woohoo!!! The first half of the summer went okay, but this last half has been so stressful. The kids have been fighting nonstop morning, noon, and night.

I wish I could just lounge around the house tomorrow and enjoy my freedom, but I start my new job tomorrow. This is a real biggie for me since I haven't worked in over 7 years. I'm going to be a field rep for a company who puts up advertising in grocery and drug stores. Yeah, not some huge career opportunity, but the hours are extremely flexible. I can work pretty much any time the stores are open, so if the kids are home sick, I can just work when DH gets home or the next day. No boss looking over my shoulder all the time either. :-)

Today I did 30 minutes on the exercise bike. Caloric intake was terrible. :-( Ugh...must stop eating so much!!!

Okay...I'm feeling guilty

I know I've disappeared for two months and I know you know why. Yes, I fell off the wagon HARD! I think I've gained close to 20 lbs. in two months.

So here I am again...trying once more. I promise you guys, Wednesday will be my official restart day. The kids start school on Tuesday and that's party time for Mommy! LOL My husband and I will go out for lunch that day and then my two months of binge eating must end.

I tell you what, I'm achy everywhere and my back is killing me. I look in the mirror and I see my face getting rounder and rounder. Why do I do this to myself???
