This is a diary of my journey through weight loss. I hope it encourages you as it helps me through one of the hardest challenges of my lifetime so far.

Plodding along.

That is just what it is right now. Plodding. Not excited, not down. Just plodding. I have managed to excercise 2 times so far this week. Have also managed to write down my foods again.  My weight however is still the same. But that will come, I know if I stick to the plan.  It is snowy, there is no school and it is tempting to sit in a warm chair with my jammies on and not move all day.  Move I must though, and move I shall.  What DOES excite me and motivate me is the fact that my daughter is pregnant and I want to be in much better shape to be able to have fun and play and keep up with a grandbaby. That is going to be so much fun. I can hardly wait and that excites me and motivates me.

New Year and a New Me (new body anyway)

Well we just got back from a wonderful week in Colorado with my family. We stayed in a condo and had a late but great Christmas.  It snowed, we had a fire place, hot chocolate. It was perfect. I love spending time with my family so much.  I did ok with the diet plan.  Didn't write things down and didn't say no to everything, but didn't over do either.  I am within 2 pounds of my lowest so far. I am behind schedule but I am back on track. My NYR is to get to the gym 3 times a week.  No excuses. I will have to adjust my goals times a bit but that is ok.  Happy New Year everyone!
