Okay, so I’ve already been home a week and NADA.  I haven’t lost anything, in fact I’m pretty sure I gained.

I said to my husband that I really need to take a new approach to losing weight.  And he said “Yeah, you think the eating whatever you want and not exercise approach just isn’t getting you the results you want?”.

I couldn’t help but laughing.  Basically that has been my approach.  In my head I think I’m doing more.  I try to eat okay, but usually I end up eating some kind of crap during the day.  I don’t exercise at all.  So that has got to change. NOW.

So yesterday, I went for a walk with Safiya on this beautiful trail.  She insisted on running the whole time, which meant I had to run too.  Who knew my daughter had a future in personal training!

My skin is just brutal right now, with the cold coming in and the dryness I am going back to being paperskin.  The stress of the last couple of weeks hasn’t helped either.  The last two weeks have been so stressful.  Horribly stressful,  I would go into details but it would only stress me out more to have to write about it.

Here’s to hoping that things start getting better.. or rather that I learn how to manage the stress better.
