Hiatus over!

With all my emotions being a total train wreck over the last month, I've forgotten about my lil' bloggy blog here.  Well I'm back now, and hopefully this will help keep my emotions in check. (fingers crossed).  Things with Kel are still crazy, and I see no end in sight...so I just keep on keepin' on.  Vegas was great however!  We actually acted and felt like a normal married couple.  But you know what they say...what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, and sadly that seems to be holding true.

On the weight front however, things are looking up!  As my little ticker up there says I've hit the 20 pound mark...hooray!  I don't feel any smaller though, which tells me that I was very heavy at my heaviest.  I must have also been pushing the seams on my clothes to their limits, because I can't yet get into a smaller size.  So my clothes are thankful that they are not under so much pressure.  My first goal has always been to get under 200 again...I've revised that to get back to my wedding weight.  That would be 197 and is only a difference of 2 pounds in the goal, so no big.  I'm so close I can just feel it...I'm hoping to be there in 2 weeks max.

I've been doing very well eating...with the exception of the evil incarnate that are known as Girl Scout Cookies.  They are gone however, and things are back to normal.  I've set a goal of eating earlier at night...I think eating at 8 or 9 o'clock is not helping my cause at all.  So I'm revising my schedule to allow me to eat earlier, and then I brush my teeth before I sit down to watch my shows so I'm not tempted to snack.  THAT is working marvelously...I haven't even eaten popcorn with Alyson, which she seems to make EVERY night.

My trainer, Brooke, is fantastic!  I adore her, and she knows how to push me just the right way.  It's expensive as hell, but I'll cut back other places to keep her.  It's well worth it.

Tonight's Workout:  I did 30 minutes of Zumba practice at the gym (yes I'm still planning on getting certified and the gym I go to is hoping to add Zumba and I'm at the top of their list!)  I'll do some strength DVD with Linda and then I have my tap class tonight as well.

Tonight's Dinner:  Since Wednesdays are so crazy, there's a Healthy choice Dinner waiting for me tonight, with a V8 Fusion to wash it down.

**on a side note, I've found out that there are lots of you that read my blog that aren't technically 'followers'.  I did not know this and think it's cool that you guys keep tabs on me!  Thanks!  Remember....becoming a follower means you can comment, and I love love love comments!  Not to mention it's totally easy!
