March Madness??
Feb 16 2008 08:15

2008 has not been what I thought it would be, so far, in my weight management.  I started off very motivated but within a week something just turned off inside me.  I've reached a point where I'm bored being at home all day by myself ... I've worked since I was 15, full time since I was 21 (I'm almost 39) - only taking time off for the RARE vacation (probably 3 in 15 years) and to have babies.  I'm just not used to this.  And I'm beginning to think I won't ever be.

I boredom eat and I just can't get motivated to move my fat ass and while in 2007 I managed to lose 20 pounds, doing well even through Thanksgiving and Christmas, 2008 has been a disaster so far and I've gained back 5 pounds.  Not water, REAL pounds.  Of fat.

So ... I'm going to take the rest of February to redesign my days and find something to do besides veg in front of the computer, and by March I hope to be back on my way to my goal weight.

I've set my wedding anniversary date as my goal date which will involve some pretty low calories ... MORE incentive to MOVE MY BUTT (if I exercise, I get to have more food that day!!!)

So here I go.
