I keep disappearing...sorry about that. I had a pretty unpleasant encounter with one of my husband's coworkers on St. Paddy's day that got me pretty depressed. The guy was drunk and hanging out with the friends that I was meeting out there (hubby had to work). My buddies decided to get some gyros at a restaurant across the street from the bar we had been hanging out at, and my hubby's coworker follows us over there a few moments later and takes the booth behind ours. I had a friend with me who speaks Spanish. This guy was speaking Spanish to one of his friends on the phone, and the friend of mine who knows Spanish - goes from having a good time to completely pissed off. "Your buddy is an asshole" she says to the guy that we had met out there - the mutual friend - the guy connecting us to this prick. "Seriously. He's a dick.". I asked her what he said, but she wouldn't tell me. It took her a few more drinks to spit it out. The guy basically said "yeah, I was hanging out with my buddy, but now he's hanging with a couple of fat chicks...". RUDE. I had actually been excited to meet this fellow - my husband always said the guy was fun. I was nothing but nice to him when he was around, and...it just sucks. It's not like I don't give myself enough crap for it, you know? Sometimes I can't stand to look at myself in the mirror. Forget fitting rooms. There's no reason for a complete stranger to be so insensitive, and I hate that I let it get to me. I let it get to me for nearly a week, and I was in a really bad funk about it. But you know what? Eff that guy. I'll let his negativity be fuel for my fire. I joined the local gym yesterday - was there for an hour and half then and for two hours today. We do an annual float trip, and I'm hoping to be down to 195-205 by August. I'm going to try to stop drinking alcohol as an experiment to see if that helps out...I will def. keep ya'll posted on my progress.

Woo! Almost out of the 230's neighborhood! I tried *and failed* to do p90x and then switched to Slim in 6 which has been working out a lot better for me. I could do the cardio and yoga p90x videos, but...man...I can't do a lot of regular pushups, let alone the crazy ones you have to do on there. I found myself marching in place for a lot of the moves and decided that I'd cross that bridge later on when I was ready to. Dietwise, I feel like I've been doing okay. This is gonna make me sound like an alcoholic, but I've found that cutting out beer to be the most difficult aspect of this whole thing so far...lol. I'm starting a video log of my weight loss as well because I feel like it'll help me motivate myself.

I just wish I could get my husband on board with this, it would certainly be a lot easier on me if he were. We both lost a decent amount of weight a few years ago when we dieted/worked out together...unfortunately, all those pounds came back and decided to invite some friends along since we got married about 4 months ago. I'm gonna keep working on him...he needs change just as badly as I do.

PS - somebody please buddy me! I feel lonely when I get on here sometimes and it's like "you have 0 buddies"...lol.
