Happy Birthday....

to me! Today is my birthday and I did nothing. I woke up and made a smoothie, went to the gym, talked to some friends, went shopping, had a lunch with friends, came home and relaxed with a quiet evening with my husband. Honestly it was perfect! Very relaxing...

Well this week has been pretty good so far. I am not keeping a food diary, I am just monitoring me intake carefully and I will see next week if this approach is going to work. This week I have just focused on cardio. Next week I will hit the weights.

Happy New Year

IT'S 2012! And I am still fat. I know 2011 had a lot of failed attempts. I always start out so enthusiatic and then I fall of the wagon. I am again starting today 01.16.12 back on but this time I have a new restored spirit. I started a new job back in August that I QUIT last week. It was a great experience and I enjoyed my co-workers but management would not work with my school schedule so I was forced to resign. Which gives me more time for me and my family.

I feel like we got married and I never got the opportunity to be a WIFE! I have not transitioned well in my role because I was busy doing everything else. School, work, running a company, being a friend, daughter, etc I am a woman of many hats.

We also adopted our 1st child a blue pit bull puppy named Dallas. DH is a die hard Cowboys fan!
I am working with my issues one day and a time. Putting my health and myself as a priority in my life. I am also interviewing for PRN and PT positions that understand and know that I am in GRAD SCHOOL!

I plan to start the gym this week. I am organizing meal plans. We finally went grocery shopping on yesterday. I started couponing and I LOVE it! We saved $50.00 YESTERDAY with coupons! I plan to try to blog as often as possible but at least once a week for weigh ins. This time around no diets and all that just plain ole counting calories and exercise.

Home scale starting weight: 315.0

I will do measurements later.

Wish me luck!
