Thanksgiving and stuff
Another long stretch since my last post. I apologize to anyone that may come around occassionally. I'm to the point where I should shut this little spot down, mostly because I just don't have the time to post that often. But on the other hand, I want to keep it going and get another regular site up. I want to write more about my family and kids, but try for the most part to keep this one about my weightloss or lack thereof.
I've been doing okay. Maintaining mostly. Which is not my goal, but its better than gaining. I'll lose for a week or two, but then slip up and gain. Rinse and repeat.
Thanksgiving was fine, eating wise. I really didn't put much on my plate. Meaning that when all the food was set nicely on my plate, I could actually still see my plate! Had one piece of my homemade apple pie and was stuffed and done for the night.
Yesterday I went shopping....the 4 am wake up time was hard, but well worth it. Didn't get home till 4 pm, but in between all the shopping we ate a few times. Breakfast of an asiago cheese bagel and vanilla chai latte. Lunch at Olive Garden....breadsticks, salad, and a lowfat pasta dish.
Weigh-in this morning showed a .4 gain. As in 4/10ths of a pound. Not bad at all. I know I'm still carrying water weight since we didn't drink much while shopping.
So now that we're almost into December, and Christmas is looming in the distance, I'm coming up with a "plan". Some people choose to aim for maintaining through the holidays. My aim is to lose weight for at least the next 3 weeks. I know with Christmas and cookies and parties that the week of Christmas won't be a good one. My aim is to hit the gym 3-4 days a week. Every week. Including the week of Christmas. And..... 2006 will be the year I make it to goal!
In February I'll be at WW for 2 years. I'm maintaining a loss of over 60 pounds, but if I had stayed serious about this weightloss for the entire 2 years, I'd be at goal already. In the meantime,I'm still paying each week. Which adds up to some serious cash.
Anyway, I'm going to try to post a bit more. If I can't manage to, I'll probably close down. But for right now, I'll keep it up, because I really can't fathom not blogging.
Hope everyone has a great week!
