I just realized today as I received a comment via email that I have neglected this blog for way too long. I'll give you a quick overview today and then this week I'll start blogging in earnest again.
I got down to about 190 and then I started gaining again. :( We ended up selling our house, moving and pretty much starting over during the holidays of 2012. Add those factors together and it equals serious weight loss. Plus we moved to a place that is a winter wonderland. I love it but not exactly conducive to outside exercise when there is 4 feet of snow on the ground and it is -20 F. By the time I got up the courage to weigh myself again (and the drive to restart this journey) I was back up to 210 lbs. I had received three different boxes of other people's "fat clothes" that they had gotten too skinny to wear. And I had received them within two weeks time. If that wasn't a hint, I don't know what was.
So I started again. With the help of my amazing sister, Steph, I started exercising. I started re-focusing on my eating. It hasn't been easy. It has actually been harder to drop the weight this time around.
As of last week, I weighed 190. I've lost 20 lbs in 29 weeks. Not quite my goal of 1 lb/ week. But there have been lots and lots of victories and lots and lots of learning experiences. I can't wait to share them with you over the next little while!
I will also start adding some newer recipes to the healthy recipe blog. I may even include a few pics this time around. I'm starting to figure out this technology stuff. I still don't have darling garnishes and matching dishes - you'll just have to see the pics of food instead.
I'm so excited to re-discover this blog and talk about this journey again!
Loves to you all!
