since my last post 3 weeks ago, i'm down 2lbs. at least, i was last week... this weekend when i weighed (different day, different circumstances, etc.), i was the same. all in all, i'm only up 5 or 6lbs, but i feel so chubby lately and i can tell my clothes are really fitting differently. (with only 5lbs?!?!!? WTF??)
tomorrow i will start back to seriously paying attention to my calories and i'll start keeping a food journal again. yay.
i also haven't been as diligent about working out as i used to. fortunately i'll be starting a regular routine w/ a personal trainer soon. having someone to be accountable to will help a lot... i still get 3-4 two hour sessions per week, but i still have too many days off. one reason my clothes are fitting differently too is b/c of all the weights i've been doing. serious ab work a few times a week is making the belly push out a bit. but once some of that flab goes away, it'll be better.
i've decided that i'd like to lose another 15-20lbs, which will put me around 100lbs lost. so i guess i need to change my ticker.
i know a lot of you think that since i've lost so much already that my body looks ok... if i could be daring and post pics of my bare belly, you'd totally understand where i'm coming from. better? yes. good? no.
so anyway... that's where i am.

keeping it real...
ok, so y'all have been with me on this weight loss journey, so i feel the need to be completely honest and let y'all see all sides of it. i know some people think it's easy to maintain, but i can assure you that it's not.
i've gained weight. i'll admit that with moving and going away dinners and stuff, i've eaten poorly. And since getting to Texas, I haven't exercised like I should. i finally joined a gym after testing out several in the area. i really like it and i'm eager to get back into a routine.
i've been getting back to eating better, but it's been hard. food is so yummy!! i really need to go back to my once a week splurge meal and that's it.
Tomorrow i have an assessment w/ a personal trainer to do measurements and stuff. he'll do some tests to see where i am fitness-wise. this will be my new baseline, though i did measurements before i left FL. (I've lost TEN inches from my abs since October of last year!!)
so anyway... that's where i am.
