Strategically taken to convince myself that I "carry the extra weight well."





The dreaded side view... not so strategic...not so convincing








I have 4 pics in my gallery

Starting out, again.

I'm a repeat offender, losing weight a few times, but it has been several years since I was able to lose more than 10 pounds and keep it off for any length of time. This time is totally different. I have been making healthy choices rather than "dieting."

Fitness Minutes: 11,253

My Goals:
Currently my goals include: Track food every day, Cook more meals at home, Get my body moving in some way every day, drink more water and drink less Diet Mt Dew.

6 week update: I have broken the Diet Mt Dew habit. I occasionally enjoy one, once a week or less.

5 month update: I am a water drinking machine! I do great at that! I haven't missed a day of tracking since I started up in March and I have been cooking at home much more. I do have a workout routine, but it isn't EVERYday, typically 4-5 times a week.


My Program:
My program is to track food, track exercise and celebrate healthy choices. I will not exclude foods or groups because they are "off-limits" I will chose to eat foods in moderation. Telling myself "you can't have that" does NOT work.

Personal Information:
I live in MN, we went from winter to summer very early! Spring and summer clothes are moving to the closet. I want fit into mine again. I refuse to buy any clothes in a bigger size.

Update: With the loss of 15# (YAY!) all of my summer clothes fit and a few are a bit too big. They fit better than they did last summer!

July update: I have almost an entirely new summer wardrobe. Many of my older clothes make me look frumpy. I won't be getting a new wardrobe every season and every size, but I have been acquiring pieces along the way. Helps me feel pretty.

Other Information:
I love to knit, too bad that isn't very active. Maybe if I knit really fast it would count as cardio? It does keep me from snacking though.

I don't think you're crazy! He was a very smart kitty, and I often thought he was trying to talk to me. He had a spark of intelligence in his eyes that I haven't seen in many cats. Certainly not my Nugget. :P She is derpy all the time. But he was special. It's comforting to think that he'd come visit me if he could. I don't think anyone truly knows what happens when we die, or what happens when pets die, so anything is possible.

You tickled me with your comment on my Salad blog. I'm not really one for salads, but I LOVED this one. "Drool" pretty much sums it up. I picked up all that fruit for smoothies, but got a wild hair, which turned out pretty great. Have a great weekend.
