I made it!

I made it... I lost 14 pounds in 2 months. I am happy with that... I want to thank the 2 Sallys that gave me the encouragement to go on, I don't think I would have made it this last week without their words of encouragement.

weigh in day

I am nervous today... what if I didn't make it. On my scales at home I have succeeded but the tension is high. I guess if I didn't make it I am still happy that I have lost 14 pounds - to me that is a great accomplishment. Hope to be still blogging next week!

Work

I am back to work at Bremecs Garden Center which is always a good thing for beating the sluggish winter blahs! I feel renewed each time I walk into the greenhouse, beautiful flowers, warmth, the smell of earth... but the absolute best thing is I lose weight. The past two years I have lost 15 pounds each spring during the busy season at the Bremecs.... heres hoping that the trend carries through to this year!

failure

oh well I am not exactly sure if I lost weight or gained weight after the last weigh in - but I know that I was really doing great and then my life got a little more complicated and Easter came and chocolate tasted OH SO Good: I am going to have to figure out how to handle the bumps along the road with positive things instead of reaching for food, candy, or a glass of wine.
