yay, holidays are over!!
Now, back to the reality of it all. Amazing how much a month can change a person. I gained 15 pounds in a month...from 204.5 to 219.5 BUT...have lost back down to 212.5 since 12/27/08.
Wow, this is the year I do it. I lose this weight once and for all. Yes, I have done it before but it is different this time....this time I am a nonsmoker and am losing the weight. A double threat woman! I sure did put back some food over the past month! Whew....between cooking and baking I ate ALOT and the scale shows it. But that is the past and this is my now.
Fun and games is over. I had said before...I am an all or nothing type of woman. I either go full speed ahead or do not go at all. Well, the role model bandster is back and I sure have missed her. No sodas, rice, bread or pasta. I did it for a year, lost down to 173, took 9 months off (when I quit smoking) and gained 46 pounds...now it is back to business time again. Funny how when I actually made up my mind to start again how easily I jumped back on the wagon and following the rules. AND with enthusiasm. THAT is the key. If you cannot get excited and fired up about what ou are doing, do not even try. And I am fired up....ready....finally. I guess just the realization of "it is what it is"...with "you can't fix what you don't acknowledge" (and all my clothes mysterously shrinking) is just the kick in the pants I needed. I saw 219.5 and thought 'oh hell no'.
So, here I go again...THIS time will be more rewarding than the first.
WATCH ME GO!
