How the time flies

Let's see, since the last post...

I lost another 25 pounds or so - and that rocked totally.

Then I moved.

The moving was relatively easy and I've been living the sweet life since. No job, back to school, just a house and a self to keep neat. And I've gained back 10 lbs.

No idea what it is that makes KFC potato wedges seem (and be) so irresistible to me. C'est la vie.

I could say that I'm in an resurgence of super-motivation, but it's not true. I need to get back to a regular schedule of eating regular meals and not "cheating" in between said meals.

Any suggestions? My ass needs help. STAT.

Is a resolution if you're not resolute?

So the husband and I have decided to motivate each other this year, which is a good thing. We both need to loose weight, some more than others. I put some thoughts in the burning wicker man on New Year's Eve - things for the two of us to leave behind in the new year. Those were:

- 50 cumulative pounds
- Our unnatural love of the couch

I'm hopeful.

The plan is to get off of said couch at least 3 times a week and do something kind of sporty. I imagine this will include walking, biking, kayaking (later in the year), and possibly going to the gym.

We're already eating pretty good and pretty healthy, although some of us need to eat less of that healthy food. Now we need to add on to that.

I'm weighing in at 221 this morning. I'm not feeling too bad about that as it means that I weathered vacation without gaining any weight. I plan to weigh in every Sunday morning. There's a doctor's appointment in March, so let's see how I'm doing then. We're aiming for less weight and lower blood pressure. That's a good goal!

Wed 10/3 ...

So today I post my weight... eew. My scale says I am 217, up from 180 2 years ago. I am having lots of fun guilt over the fact that my heart condition wouldn't be as bad had I limited the Doritos diving. That and the fact that I think I weigh more than a pregnant friend. So today the goal is to take 15 minutes for myself and stretch (will have to lock up the dogs). So far the intake has been !!!coffee!!! My usual breakfast also includes a banana.

Onward and Downward

Well it was this or duct tape the fridge and I think I'm supposed to cook dinner as one of those wifely duties so blogging it is. So far today I've had 2 cups of coffee and sat on my @ss all morning packing boxes for the first Post Office run of the day. Hmmm, not a stellar start.
