oh dear.

yes, i did what I said I wouldn't do.  I let my weight totally balloon over the holiday break.  I'm at my heaviest weight ever.  223.  How the f*ck did I let that happen?  It is what it is, and I need to deal with it.  and I am.  I bought a new HR monitor with the chest strap to help with my tracking.  I'm getting my workout schedule finalized.  My biggest hurdle is food.  i just like it.  A bit too much.  I need to gradually scale back my calories and drastically cut back the sugar.  That's the hard part...I love sugary stuff.  But baby steps need to be taken before i can make giant leaps.  I've learned this from experience.  so again, here we go from the beginning.

I have gotten weigh in's from several of you during the break.  Gold stars for you!  I'm going to extend the competition...if I have no objections.  I can't end the challenge at a 'plus' percentage.  That's a shitty way to start the new year!  I have some serious catching up to do with those of you who lost over the holiday!  My hat is off to you, and I am using you as my motivation to get back on my horse!

I just feel very cluttered right now.  My house is still in holiday hangover mode, and It needs some serious de-cluttering and organizing.  My diet is in shambles, and my exercise routine has all but disappeared.  I'm making up my resolution list, which I usually do monthly ie: 1 resolution for each month.  This year i have decided to just do a weightloss scrapbook.  A photo taken on the first of each month, with my goals to accomplish on one page, and the opposite page showing my results from the previous months goals.   Pages in between will feature any accomplishments I achieve not having to do with my listed goals.  We'll see how this pans out.  I'll share the scrapbook with you as it progresses.

As for challenge updates, I'm getting there.  I'm a little discouraged, and updated the challenge seems daunting at this point.  But all of you are depending on me, and that will keep me going!

Again, if anyone wants to jump in the challenge for the New Year, please do so.  Still $5.00...still winner take all.  CAS and AS are leading the way right now!  you GO girls!!

Do not give up. Remember, we've all been there. I lost 50 pounds several years ago, only to gain back more than that. And then I lost 75 pounds as of February '10 only to gain back 66 by December. You are not defeated. And you MUST stick to this to help all of us, just as we will help you! You know Scorpios don't like to lose a competition! So get your ass back to your workouts, cut out the Pepsi and crap food and do it now! I KNOW you can! We are all hear if you need us!!! Think how much better you're going to feel doing all the activities that make you tired and out of breath. Think of walking Alyson and Hailey down the aisle and what you want to look like. Think of BEING here on this Earth for your first grandchild and more to come. You NEED to be here for them all - and for me! Hang in there!!!!
