So excited my pup's butt shut my computer off as she jumped on my lap and the post I was writing is still here!!

I haven't been here much lately. Missing my friends here. Life has been crazy busy so not much computer time. I'm on a new team at work which is has meant more overtime during the tax season, that is settling down. I also tackled re-doing my living room, it's almost done. Still have some furniture and window treatments to get and replacing the old closet door. The house re=do is all part of feeling good about myself so it is health related. It's so nice to sit down in a room that I now like!!

Most of you know my theory that weight loss isn't just about the pounds, it's about your whole life. Getting healthy also means getting healthy mentally. Simply put if you don't feel good about yourself you will gain those hard fought lost pounds back. Fighting my little 1950"s ranch house to bring it into the 21st century is a challenge but every step closer I get I feel better. It makes me feel good that I can do much of it myself. I need to feel proud of my home.

My weight is still the same up 2 down 2 averaging at 128. I have been neglecting exercise an so need to get back to it. Eating hasn't been as good as it should be either with all the work through lunch with company provided lunch, tried to make the best choices I could. Also often skipping dinner, as simply exhausted.

Trying to get organized and back on track. No prep cooking or planning means I do something quick for dinner and lunch. That needs to get back on track. Planning is a huge key!!

Later, back to putting my house back together after the painting etc. mess.
