Okay, yesterday I had a crapper but today I've woken up all enthusiastic again. Is it the fact that it is sunny? I think this may be a big factor. Perhaps I need to use my lightbox more - going to be an experiment over the winter I think. I don't want to resort to tablets to deal with the SAD. It's started so early this year!
So, back on the Diet Chef :D
Hubby's birthday today - got no plans. He's stressed at work and even though it is our 40th birthdays, I just can't seem to get up any enthusiasm for them. Thing is, they don't feel special - not that I mind being 40, but I've never been a big birthday person, not at 18, 21 or 30. It just doesn't excite me. Now Christmas - woohoo! I may not be Christian but I love the whole concept of Christmas - the spiritual, religious and good tidings. Not so up on the overdraft side though hehe
Oh yeah, I'm thinking of Christmas already - too early? Probably haha But it's only 12 weeks away
Hope you all have a good week.

Birthday
I was 40 this year, and have to say it kind of was more a damp squib than a firework display, but I think I'm the same as you. I don't mind being 40 now I am, but I hated the thought before I got there. For me it kind of turned apage that made me feel I've grown up now and people can start taking me seriously or not at all and I DON'T CARE! (Well not as much as before anyway LOL)
Not too early to be thinking about Christmas. I sent out a save the date email to DH's family. Every year, we do the annual family Christmas party at our house. I just wanted to make sure that nobody made plans for that day.
Twelve weeks away, huh? Sounds like the perfect amount of time to do a body transformation! (But I'm not signing up for any more challenges....LOL!)
Holy Moly! 12 weeks til Christmas? I LOVE Christmas but I am no where near even close to getting prepared! I agree with Tatums mom that 12 weeks sounds like a great time frame to look that much better and be that much healthier by Christmas!
I am not big on my birthday either. My sil though celebrates hers for about a week. LOL
If I were you, I would definitely get to using your light box. Get a hold on it before it gets a hold on you. I know from past experience that depression can play a big factor in weight gain. I didn't the brunt of my weight from my children, I did from the postpartem and the antidepressants. Plus, the more your mood is up, the more likely you will be motivated to get some weight loss done!
