I like to start my notes to you as if we’re already in the middle of a conversation. - Kathleen Kelly
Well, I forewarned you all that I'm not much of a diary writer. Here is it, almost 9 years since my last post. Wow! I can't believe this blog is still out on the internet, and that I could log in and read all my old posts! It's so cool to be able to go back and read my experiences from 10 years ago. Things sure have changed since then - except one thing: I'm still trying to lose weight!
Thankfully, I have kept off the 50 pounds I lost in 2010-2011. And I've even fluctuated between 5-10 pounds less throughout the years! Right now, I'm at about '57 pounds off, 8 more pounds to go' mark. I've been reaching for a specific goal weight for awhile now, and that's just 8 pounds away. However, it's many more inches to lose - and that's more important to me than the actual number on the scale. Aside from this, I just want to be healthier.
I aim to workout at least 4 days a week, about 30 minutes each time. I maintain a relatively healthy-ish diet. I know I can do more, and I've just started tracking my food again. I feel this holds me more accountable. It makes me think twice before eating something I know that I shouldn't. And it helps me see my macros for the day, how well I'm doing, and how I can improve. I need to be careful that I'm not too restrictive with food. I've done this before, without even realizing it. I worked with a great dietitian earlier this year, and she really helped me realize my behaviors with food and dieting. And I still Walk at Home with Leslie Sansone - I just love her! Plus, I've found another great workout program - Team Body Project. Daniel and Alex are such a great team, and I really enjoy working out with them.
So what's to come with this blog? I don't know! I'm not sure how often I will write, or what all I will write about. What I do know is that I want to work more on my writing skills. I enjoy writing, but I can find it difficult at times. And I don't write enough, so here I am!
