Hey y’all.

Yep, I’m still alive ‘n kickin’.  This past week has just been crazy, a catch-up week between (business) trips.  Tomorrow I leave for Washington D.C., a trip I make every January.  Oh my I’m not looking forward to the C-C-C-COLD!!!

Last weekend for no reason at all I gained more than two whole pounds and that bummed me out, and then it took all the rest of the week to lose ‘em again.  AND I haven’t been in ketosis this whole time and I can’t seem to stick to induction long enough to get it back.  I haven’t gone more than 30-40 carbs on any given day but that’s not low enough to flip that metabolism switch.  I’m right back where I was when I last posted.  *Sigh.*

And now I’m leaving again and sometimes when I travel it’s really hard.  Not impossible, just hard.

Hey I got a new haircut - did anyone notice that my mullet is gone?  LOL don’t blame the hairstylist for that last cut because it’s what I said I wanted.  I still like it short in the front and long in the back but shucks no one else does so I went ahead and got the length chopped.  I also colored my hair a lighter color blonde, which is funny because it came out darker.  Weird. 

So here are all my haircuts in the past year!

Oh, and all my hair colors, too.  Ha!  It’s neat, though, that I can see my face changing.  I took my glasses off for this last picture because I just couldn’t avoid the glare from the computer screen - and it made me miss my contact lenses.  I think my reward when I hit onederland will be a new contact prescription and a year’s supply.  =D

Today was my niece’s wedding.  I wore an outfit that I had in my closet forever and had never worn it because it was too small for me.  Now here’s the weird thing, the last time I tried it on was Christmas Day, and the blouse was so snug over my boobs and belly that I couldn’t possibly wear it.  Just one month later I only weigh five pounds less, yet that same blouse slipped right on and it not only fits, there is room to spare.  Very strange! 

I did my measurements this past Wednesday and was pretty pleased with the results.  The last time I posted about my measurements was on December 19, and at that time my total inches lost was at 29.5 inches.  Now my total inches lost total 32.75, a change of 3.25 inches, woohooo!  Apparently those 3.25 inches came off my boobs and belly, hehehe.

I’m gonna try to post while I’m gone on my trip.  I’m definitely gonna be using the hotel gym while I’m up there - so I hope I come home with a loss like I did after the last trip!

Hugs to everyone!
