Happy New Year.

I was doing a little experiment for the last 119 days since I have been on FS and here are my results:
- I gained 12.2 pounds
- I had low energy and motivation
- I thought I could do this without support, I was wrong.

I need you my FS family and miss you. I must admidt, I had to use this time to filter out all of the crap going on, one could call it excususes however no matter what, if you give it energy, they will seem legit.

My days start at 4:45 am and I have to be out the door by 5:15 AM. I tried getting up earlier but that requires going to be by 9 PM which is difficult because I get home around 6:30 PM and on. When I do get in, I have to tend to the kids because wife works in the day and goes to school at night.

These were and still are things I have to deal with but I will figure out a way.

MGRILL, thank you for your private message. If you could maximize a 30 minute workout window at work I could consider that as well.

I could try working out in the evening around 8:30 but am a little afraid that I will have difficulties falling asleep an hour after my workout. It has happened in the past and a little concerned about that.

All I can do at this time is reconnect, get back on this two way street of advice, encouragement, the setbacks and the many, many victories.

I am back, hope you have room for me.
