I made my decision to live a healthy life on 6-22-09 by recommitting to a healthy lifestyle. I am sad to report that since then I haven't been very accountable. I haven't been horrible in making choices either.

I haven't weighed in since then.

Since starting my new job I have had a hard time adjusting to life with a job again. Cooking and cleaning, me time and things like that are hard for me to adjust.

I have had some health issues since that date as well.

I am looking for a new family doctor as I know I need a physical. I have my OB and gastroentinologist as well as my orthopedic surgeon for my specific ailments but I need a good family doc. I am not keen on my current doc and want to get my health in order.

Last weekend I spent camping with 11 girl scouts. For the most part it was a good time. The leaders butt heads on a few things. Some of the girls are higher maintenance than others but I survived. It wasn't my idea of camping. I missed my husband. I have learned in the last several months how much I really do love him. He is such a blessing in my life.

I really enjoy camping but when I camp with my husband he just knows what I need and I just know what he needs. As I was setting up camp with the scouts, I just felt like something was missing. It was him. As I was doing all these tasks and wondering why it all seemed so different.

I am not making excuses. I am just explaining my absence. I am still committed to a healthy lifestyle. There have just been a lot of changes in my life recently and to make this a permanent change it needs to take time.
