In Like a Lamb
First day of March is just a reminder that Spring is right around the corner. It's a beautiful sunny (but cold) day. I love the sunshine. It makes me more energetic and optomistic. I've been holding pretty steady in my weight loss efforts since the last time I blogged ( my goodness it's been over two months...sorry!) Eating is pretty basic...cooking just for myself is not fun. Hubby is back on the road. Thank goodness for that because he's been off since mid November. As an over the road flatbed truck driver, there weren't any loads for him. The economy has pretty much halted production and he usually hauls steel, so this has really affected us.
I have to learn to make salads more fun cuz I'm not getting my veggies in. I'm ashamed to say that I haven't been working out as I had planned for my monthly goals. When hubby was home, I'd feel guilty for leaving him to work out. I felt that since he was home I needed to be with him, even if we were just sitting watching TV. I guess I felt that since he's gone so much, that we should take every opportunity to be together when he's home. So now that he's working again that means I have to start working out. I already put on two miles on the treadmill this morning. It's a start!

Welcome Back!
Hi! It's good to see you're posting again! I'm so glad you're having a Sunny day so you can feel the approach of Spring!
We're expecting a major snowstorm here in Boston, so we won't be seeing a lamb for a while!
Congrats on putting mileage on the treadmill already!
Enjoy your day and have a GREAT week ahead!

Glad hubby is working again
This economy is so tough on lots of people. Good for you for working out again. I bet he wouldn't mind if you disappeared for a half hour or so to work out, even if he's home.

I bet hubby would understand that you need 30-60 minutes of you time for exercise when he's home.
Glad he's out on the road again - means work's here, at least for now.
Hugs!

welcome back!
Good news about your husband being back on the road! I'm happy to hear that. I'm starting a new (old) job in April so as much as I dont want to go back to work yet, I am happy that I have something lined up.
Wish you luck on your weightloss and workouts.
I'm recommitting now, too!

Hi there ~ so happy to see your post. It's great to hold steady for a while but even better to start losing again. We can do it - together. Happy to see you again. Ü
