I feel like I'm in weight loss mode. It feels good. The 4th of July weekend wasn't exactly the greatest, but it's over. And now I'm being intentional. I'm focusing on my health, exercising, eating well, and am full-on weight loss mode. The distractions of lots of pot luck/cookout food and desserts will hopefully stay away for the next couple of weeks. In the meantime, I need to deal with the reality of life when I am in situations where there are SO many delicious foods at my disposal. This is w… Continue

For the past 9 months, I have not been intentional or focused on my health and weight. Many things in my life changed and many crappy things happened in my life. Sometimes that's just how life is.

It's been a long, long, long time. A friend has gotten back onto here, so I want to, too. And now that I'm back and see my page, my weight hasn't really budged for 6 months. Wow, time has flown... six months? At least it hasn't gone up, I guess.

I could give excuses, but that wouldn't change my weight or my behavior. And honestly, I'm not sure I'm at that point of being motivated to change my behavior. But, I'll get there. My health is important to me. And I know I haven't been focusing on it a… Continue

Whoa, it's been over a month since I've been on here to write a blog post. My last one was about how I was getting too comfortable and not being disciplined and having self control in my eating, resulting in my weight not going anywhere. Well, the past month has still been the same. I think I am enjoying being smaller than I used to be, and haven't had that urgency and determination to lose weight l… Continue
