The past several months have been very stressful for me. Perhaps it's little more than an excuse, but I'd caved in to convenience foods to get me by. We had to move out of our place in a hurry, even postponed our wedding by a few weeks because of it. Oh yeah, and I got married at the end of last month.
I've had some stressful family issues since then, and came to the decision that I really need less stress in my life. That means cleaning and organizing not only my surroundings, but my mind.
Anyway, I'm really trying to get settled in our new place. As we speak I'm finally breaking down and getting the kitchen organized to my liking (I still have areas to unpack yet). My past few grocery shopping trips have been great! I've picked up a lot of my old, healthy foods in hopes of getting those old, healthy habits back.
And as usual, I'm not stocking anything that I might endanger binging (my real problem area seems to be eating out so I'm going to try to minimize that as much as possible). And now that summer is over I'm more apt to get outside and move!
What I really want is to break down under 250 again. I did several months back, but it didn't stick. In fact, I've been lingering around 250 for about a year now.
Of course the good part about that is that I haven't been steadily gaining like I have in the past and that I'm nowhere near my high weight, but I'm really anxious to get down at least another 30 pounds and beyond (the slimmest I'd ever been as an adult was around 220).
Anyway, it's time to recommit myself and make things happen! And part of that is returning to this site. Hope everyone has been well.
New Beginnings
