Hey,

So I was away from spark for a while, I have no idea why or even a real reason. I would be at the comp and think to go on spark but ventured other places instead. I forgot how much I missed it. According to my last Sparkpeople status update it was 67 days ago! weird! I just got busy and stressed and anxiety and as many excuses as possible to not focus on just me. NOW I am back with a vengeance!
I have really decided that I am too much of a people pleaser and its time to focus on me and not focus on pleasing others. Of course I am still a nice person (Sometimes) a couple times lately not so much..over the holidays there was an instance that I feel brought out the worst in me. But nothing I cant handle and if I want to change me for me then I am sure gonna do it!!! I have had so much more energy, confidence etc again. I actually lost six pounds over the holidays with travelling and stress etc.. didnt eat a whole lot but have gained atleast a couple of them back which is fine. I would prefer to lose them in a healthy fashion anyways!

So WHAT HAVE I BEEN DOING THATS SO FUN!? Well I have an elliptical, that by the way I bought on sale last year for 200 bucks! so worth it!
I have always had an elliptical up until I moved so I didnt have one for about a year and a half and I noticed I really gained weight during that period of time looking back at pics. So I decided while looking through old pics, obviously the elliptical worked for me, whether I knew it or not at the time. It burns mega calories! I love it! AND while I am elliticizing I am watching my fave show Real housewives! I have decided to get ALL of the housewives haha new york, new jersey, beverly hills and other useless, drama filled fun shows like that to pass my time! I find I am cranking the elliptical up more and more to challenge myself and my body is feeling it! So I know thats good! This is my first week back at it..

Wish me luck!!! If I keep it up which I fully intend to do, I will add strength training in there too! I am going based on an online program that tells the best and fastest way to lose healthy with the elliptical and at home excercises! :)

I do have a question!!! Has anyone tried zantex 3?? I am not normally big on diet pills et c.. actually quite against them but this one I just have a feeling with..its weird. I have done alot of online research and read reviews and heard mostly nothing but good about them and I am planning also on a healthy eating and excercise routine so I am curious if anyone has tips! :) I have heard amazing results if on good regime. Apparantly alot of celebs swear by it (not that that means anything with the insane trainers they have, I know and chefs etc buuuuut I AM SOOOO tempted to get me started off)
