Reading, Thinking....caught up for now.
OK....I spent a big chunk of this morning reading and commenting on friend's blogs.....I need to make sure I didn't miss anyone....but I wanted to post my blog before I forgot what I wanted to say. This is what happens when you get over 50. First of all....I'm so happy to see my friend txlass back....she was one of my first friends here....her and AndreaN. Blogging helps me keep my goals in mind.....even if I'm not acting on them as I should.....if they are at least in my thoughts it keeps me from doing something completely stupid. Tatumsmom was asking why she blogs...this is a weight loss blog...and she had not been doing anything to lose weight recently.....and I said that sometimes blogging needs to be therapy....it seems to work for me.....with all my recent rantings.....writing about them has kept me from diving into a bag of chips, or basket of chocolates or many of the other temptations I face on a daily basis.....and I think it would be pretty fair to assume that most of us here have at least some emotional eating issues.....so if getting something off your chest helps.....go for it! One thing is for certain....most of the time people (myself included) take a break from here.....when we come back....we are not reporting wonderful results.....so I would think even keeping in touch....will help keep us from completely going off the deep end......and reading what others are doing.....can help get us motivation for when we are ready to kick our big butts into gear again....but that is me......what do you think?
OH....speaking of weight...I forgot to weigh this morning....again.....but Bill asked if I had lost more weight....and clothes are fitting very nicely....so I am optomistic that it will be good news whenever I remember.
