No pictures today, folks. I was going to post a picture of Mark pinning me with his Tenderfoot pin, but I decided not to when I looked at the picture.
I'm mad at myself for gaining weight and I can't stand to see pictures of myself. It all started when Brit got pregnant and then Andrew moved out and we moved. It is not my kids fault. How could I let myself get this way? I've kind of been on a downward spiral and I barely recognize myself. I've decided that short hair is just not for me. I think it excacerbates and emphasizes what I don't like about myself right now.
I realize this may sound like I'm down. I guess I am. Our former home still has not sold and right now it has become a money drain. I miss my grand daughter tremendously and there is not a thing I can do about that. I am happy that she is happy and thriving. I just ache to hold her.
Anywho, I've started speedwalking again. Two and a half miles 6 days a week and the chocolate went bye-bye. Anyone who said chocolate was better than sex LIED! I haven't eaten it in about a month and I'm doing just fine without it. My plan is to have lost the weight and returned to my normal self by my 40th birthday. That is January 6th. Since I've now put it out there it makes me accountable to all who read this. Wish me success!!!

GOOD LUCK! (You don't need the luck though Charmen) I remember you in your rice cake days. I always wondered how you kept it all together! It's nice to know you're human! You've always had words of encouragement for me, so I am totally supportive of your goals! Be happy doing it!
Way to have a game plan! I am sorry that you are down. Do things that make you happy, spoil yourself today. You can accomplish your goal for sure!
I know you can accomplish your goal! You're superwoman! I've always admired your dedication to go after the things you want in life. Keep us posted on how it's going. Good luck friend!
Charmen! I feel your pain! I am not at my normal weight either. You have a realistic goal though, I bet you take off all the extra even before your b-day. I hope you get to see your baby girl again sometime soon, it is so hard to be away from the ones you love.
