slacker...thy name is Stacey

Holy crap...has it really been 2 months?  Ouch...I had no idea.  Well, shit.  I don't even know what to say for myself.

According to my little ticker up there (which I just updated, thank you) I didn't totally backslide during my hiatus.  On the contrary, I actually lost a pound.  That's seems deceiving though.  Because I was all the way down to 211, and rapidly put those back on this week.  Fortunately, all is not lost!

As I gaze at the calendar I see a fun little fact.  My fantastic desk calendar at work has a little 'counter' on it, that lets me know how many days of the year have passed, and how many are left.  (is this a regular feature on calendars?  If yes, how have I never noticed this before?)  (side note, can anyone tell me what (EID) means for nationality on the calendar?  I obviously know (C) and (M) but that (EID) one has had me stumped for ages)  Anyhoo,  come November 1st, there are 60 days left (technically 61 since Dec has 31 but for my purposes I'll fudge it) in 2012. 

I always see all this diet and Exercise things throwing the time frame of 90 days.  90 days to a better body if you follow this workout, 90 days to a trimmer waistline if if you follow this diet...blah, blah, blah.  So if I use 11/1/12 as a starting point, my 90 days will hit nice and round (+/-1 day) on January 31st.  This epiphany struck me and little sparklies danced around my eyes (it had nothing to do with how hard I was thinking to figure out (EID), so shut up) and skinny versions of me jumping over flaming hurdles as I'm running the Warrior Dash in cute size 8 workout clothes played in my head  (ok maybe too much (EID) thinking took a toll).  Nevertheless, I felt...a...plan...forming somwhere in my calendar challeged brain.

I SHALL DO MY OWN 90 DAY TRANSFORMATION!!
(that has a much better effect if you say with the deep, booming, echo-y announcer / superhero man voice.  I'll pause while you try it....  you sound amazing.)

The details?  I'm still working that out.  But It has to be fun, and interesting, and fun.  Or I won't stick to it at all.  The goal?  I want to hit a 30 pound loss by Jan 31st.  That would be 30 pounds in 90 days.  Tricky? yes.  Difficult?  Incredibly.  Impossible?  NEVAHHHH!!

So stay tuned my little peeps...this could get fun.
