As you all can see I had a major slip-up since I last weighed in. On the good side before I started up again I was 267, but was too ashamed to input it. I am losing weight fairly well. I tend to do this when my husband deploys. This time the Army has him gone for a year. Which is great because it gives me time to focus on myself and figure out how to adopt a healthy lifestyle without the temptations of cooking fatty foods and eating out all the time. I have decided to take my fastfood budget (about $100 a month) and donate it to church. I also plan to volunteer more to stay busy. I taught some of the neighborhood girls how to cross-stich today they did really well and I felt a sense of pride being able to pass on a hobby I love.
