Starting over in 2010
Well, I've not gained everything back, but I've gained too damn much :( 2009 has been a hellish year and I've got to get back on track. Exercise has been sporadic at best. And w/o exercise I have no hope of losing an ounce let alone the massive amount of weight I desperately need and want to lose.
We got the kids a Wii for Christmas. My kids aren't video gamers at all. They've never had an interest in any gaming systems. But we decided to get the Wii Fit package for them and a few games. They love it and so do I. So far we haven't had time to try to Fit (our basement just flooded, yet another gift from 2009 lol - and that's where our Wii was located, we've moved it upstairs until we can repair the basement but there's just not room to do too much up here :( ) But I can 'feel' the bowling I've been doing with the kids and I've had a loss of 3 lbs w/o changing anything else. Just reinforces my knowledge of my body. It doesn't matter how perfectly I follow an eating plan, if I can't get myself moving I can't lose weght plain and simple.
So with the start of a new year I'm starting over again. But I can't look at it as again. I'm just starting over. Making tiny steps in the right direction one small change at a time. I know my ultimate goal is so far off I don't even want to think about it. So I won't. Right now I'm just working on 5 lbs at a time. Just give me a five pound loss and then I'll move on to the next five pounds. Tiny, baby steps.
