33 Days

I have been MIA lately. I recently went to Destin for a week with some old college roommates. It was a blast. I threw all of my insecurities out the window and just had a good time. I ate and drank too much. No regrets though!

I will get to meet my new class in 33 days! I am going  back to basics and hoping to recharge my weight loss. Losing weight to me equals gaining confidence and energy to be the best teacher I can be. My weight is, and has always been, a reflection of my emotions. I want to work on being in a better place mentally, spiritually, and physically. It is to the point I do not need to talk about. I need to just DO IT. I know exercise is key for stress, depression, and health. I know what it is like to be so bogged down with sugar and just feel blah. Sugar blah feeds into laziness, apathy, etc....

I am the queen of setting goals, planning how much weight I will lose by when, and overall putting lots of thinking into it but no follow through. I am going to think like a healthy, energetic, "thin" person and flat out turn my back on sweets and empty calorie carbs. I know I will not be perfect but I need to work on the whole not letting food control me, etc...

It is a mind game, I am determined to win. I am very PROUD of you ladies who have stayed in the game and continue to lose!!! It inspires me to back in the game, no matter how slow it seems. I used to weigh as much as some of you ladies. I got discouraged with how slow it was moving...so stopped....makes perfect sense?

The vacuum cleaner is calling my name. I must say vacuuming is my favorite. It is the dusting that I hate.

Baby steps: I will clean house and get on my elliptical today :)
