MIA
I haven't been here for a month! How did that happen? I'd like to say that I was busy continuing to lose weight while I was gone but it's not true. I was doing well until the twentieth, but then we took a mini-vacation/road trip to Ottawa, and I ate badly the entire trip and didn't really get back on track when I got back. My first weigh in after I got back showed me up 5 lbs. I thought to myself - that's water retention from eating too much salt/carbs, it'll go back down in a day or two. It didn't. So I'm back on the weight loss wagon, not that I should have fallen off in the first place.
I'm sick again, which sucks. Looking back over the past few months I'm averaging being sick every 6 weeks. Much of it is because of the kids bringing stuff home from school, but it's getting ridiculous. I have a raging head cold, runny nose and wickedly sore throat. Plus i'm feverish on and off since Tuesday. The kids and hubby have been sick too, which is enough work for me, without adding me to the sick list. I think I may have turned the corner as I'm feeling slightly better as the day goes on.
My new goal is two part;
1) No eating after the kids are in bed. I will brush my teeth with them and not eat until the next morning.
2) Blog every two days.
The blogging helps keep my head in the game. I'd like to say I'll blog every day, but I know realistically I won't have the time.
Also, I just joined a Women's Softball league! I'm really very bad, but they don't seem to mind, and I'm hoping I'll finally get to make some new friends. Since we moved here in September I haven't made any connections I'm hoping this will help.
See you on Saturday!
