Back, with an excuse (or not?)
Hi ladies (and gentlemen)!
I'm so sorry that I have been gone. This past month has been a roller coaster ride. I guess I should start from the beginning.
On August 25th, we found out that S was leaving for boot camp three months early--he was leaving September 8th. We weren't expecting this. It threw us for a complete loop. I felt like my world was shattered. I didn't know what I was going to do without him. So, instead of focusing on eating healthy, we splurged on all his favorite restaurants and foods.
On September 3rd, we went to Tennessee. He PROPOSED to me in Cades Cove (my favorite place in Tennessee)! It was wonderful!!!
On September 8th, I saw my FIANCE for the last time for three months. I will not get to see or speak to him until December 3rd. I am currently waiting for my first letter. It's been a week today!!! I'm hoping to get it tomorrow!
So, since I am now ENGAGED, I'd better LOSE WEIGHT. I promised S I would lose 30lbs by December 3rd. It motivates me to get to see him skinnier! He will be so happy.
I'll keep up with you all every day to let you know how my journey is going. I'm going to be counting calories eaten and burned. I have bought a Polar HRM F6 to calculate how many calories I burn while working out. I also bought a new scale today. Starting tomorrow, I will be logging my weight daily.
I look forward to 30lbs in the next 3 months with you all!!!
XOXO
