January 2009

The last 6 weeks have been a bummer!  But--things are picking up again I think.  Probably because I found I was able to eat a few sweets over the holidays and because I felt responsible for doing a lot of family cooking this year.  My step-mother passed away in June and I felt a call to make sure the whole family enjoyed the togetherness we shared over the holidays through food.  Faye was a great cook and we always looked forward to enjoying all the treats she made.  My sister (who is a lap-bander) and I made all the familiar recipes the family looked forward to every year.  Most of us are overweight and my dad is diebetic so some of the treats were sugar free but most were not.  We cooked for 3 days straight.  Considering, I felt I did pretty well but I did get hooked on a piece of fudge every day and it didnt' make me sick.  That led a a couple of cookies every day for a week(low in sugar cookies).  I am finally back on track and this week I lost 3 lbs!!!!  So the excitement is back and I am now thinking that I REALLY HAVE to start exercising!!!! I've been saying that but still haven't made myself do anything to work into a routine.  A few movements every now and then but nothing every day.  Really would like to make my Valentine's Day Goal of 205 (secretly it was 199).
