Djburney's Journal, 07 November 2012

I bet I get one of those fun alerts telling me I'm losing at a rapid pace*. Love those! I have this renewed determination to get these last 25-30 lbs off and I'm going to do it quickly. My biggest problem is alcohol, and I've just resigned myself to not drinking while finishing this. I went to an election party last night where they had every drink imaginable, and I had a diet Squirt. yum

Speaking of the election party, I was the only woman with 5 men by the time I got there. 5 gay men. I might as well have been invisible. One of them happens to be one of my best friends, and he kept trying to introduce me and they just ignored him. Hilarious!

I finally have time this morning for one of my beautiful hikes. Heading to the hills now!


*Yes, I got the alert...15.4 lbs per week. At this pace, I will be at my goal in 2 weeks. In my dreams!
191.6 lb Lost so far: 56.0 lb.    Still to go: 27.6 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.

Lol. I hope you had fun. I am just glad election season is over. I hate those annoying mailers and phone calls. I voted, I vote every year please stop bombarding me with these flyers. Where are these calls and flyers when we need them to things around the city or neighborhood? LOL. Go on the hike and take in Nature's beauty....there is nothing like closing your eyes and hearing the wind...

Hey girl, I think everyone is having issues this time of year with food and alcohol. That's why it is so easy to throw your hands up and say 'I give up' till after New Years Eve. I too, had given up alcohol for a while and the weight was falling off. HOWEVER, it is so easy to get back to old habits. We watch a lot of NASCAR and that is like a drink beer and eat junk time. Also, my husband works tough jobs like paving with asphalt, construction, and landscaping. Allow me you tell you, he wants his cold beer when he gets home. And he stays home. With me. So, we a lot of times, end up drinking a few. It is almost our only together time. We talk, we laugh. We sit on the porch when its warm. Seems good. :}

Oh, I'm sure when there is a man in my life I will go back to drinking, but it has been affecting my short and long term memory lately, and that scared me off it for a while. Plus, I just wasn't losing weight, so I'm going back to what I did last spring when it was falling off. That means very little alcohol. Sad, I know. You are lucky to have a man that you like to talk to and laugh with. That is worth more than all the money in the world. Although I'd like to have both :-)
