I'm Back!!!!

Hey Girls!! I’ve been absent for quite awhile...I guess I could use the “holidays” excuse, but if I’m being honest with myself and ya’ll, it was just plain laziness...Too lazy to exercise, too lazy to count my calories, and just too lazy to even think about it!! Since the New Year is upon us, I’ve been thinking about getting back into my habits which were working so well for me...I’ve been halfheartedly counting calories but no exercise yet.. The sad thing is, I was walking outside for awhile but then it started staying dark later so the Hubby said I should buy a treadmill (rather than walk in the dark, isn’t he sweet?) but as soon as I bought it, I stopped walking..Why is that?? Anywho, I can report that I did not gain any weight back during my hiatus, but I certainly haven’t lost any more!! So, two things happened today that have really put me in the mood to get back on track...1. The Victorias Secret swimsuit catalog came, I’m not really sure why they send this to my home, obviously they’ve never had a look at me or they wouldn’t waste their paper or postage, but it does motivate me sometimes (even though I’ve never in my whole life been that thin, nor will I ever be, I just don’t think God had that in mind the day He created me). and 2. When I went to the school to pick my daughter up, a woman came up to me and told me that I looked great, looked like I had lost weight..well WOOHOOO!!!! Long story short, it’s time to buckle down and get back to it...I’ve got a long way to go before I can order my string bikini

YAY! Those are two awesome things to get you re motivated! I am in the same boat! Just starting back up. Haven't gained or lost but i consider maintaining a win at this point! Just practice for the future. I just got busy with all of life's things and traveling back and forth to the boyfriends. (2 states away) but I am back and I will hit my goal this year! And on an additional positive note... I have inspired my boyfriend to start eatting healthier and exercising, which I see as great for him but also for me cause we'll both be on the same page! Good luck! and We can do it!
