Before After

Almost 6 months later. . .

So it's been almost 6 months since I last blogged.  Things that have happened in the last six months:

1) Sold my house on April 30th.  At a loss. But good riddance.  Seriously - I could not be happier about that decision. 

2) Moved in a with a friend for a few months instead of getting an apartment because I knew that eventually. . .

3) Nick and I would move in together.  Which we did in mid-September.

4) My weight crept back up to 170.5 by 4th of July.  Stress with the house + stress with the job + eating everything Nick does = not good.

5) Recommitted to WW after 4th of July weekend, and have lost 11 pounds in 11 weeks.  Am now back in the 150's.  =)

6) Am getting better at this "lifestyle change" thing.  Finding it easier to cook healthy meals, and try WW recipes.  Trying to hit the gym 5 or 6 times a week, which is HUGE ACCOMPLISHMENT for me.  And am constantly trying to make better decisions when food is not in my control, like tailgates or restaurants or vacations. 

7) Have a goal of 10 more pounds by Christmas.  Would love nothing more than to get off the plane in Baltimore in the 140's.  I haven't been in the 140's since college.  This would be HUGE. 

Ok, gotta get back to work.  But life is pretty good right now.  I think it's a good sign when I'm not posting - I'm just busy enjoying my new awesome life.  =)

Congrats!

Super congrats on everything you've accomplished this year!

I'm so jealous =)

Great job on hitting the gym, too. 

You're so almost there!   You can totally do this =)

 

hey, welcome back!

nice to see a post from you... thought you were gone for good for half a sec there.  ...and glad to hear that things are going well on both the eating/exercising front and with Nick.  You moved in together!  That's a big step!  Have you been enjoying it?  Anyway, I s'pose I should say hope to not see you posting much soon since that will mean you're doing well...
