Wow.....it's been more than a month since my last blog. I am *really* behind!!! I have still not gotten out of the holiday craziness. My kids started Christmas vacation on December 18th. A few days later we picked my Dad up at the airport in Nashville and then spent the next 5 days there with my inlaws. Then we came back home and spent the next 10 days here with the kids still on vacation and my Dad with us as well. They went back to school on the 4th, Dad went home on the 5th. Then......this crazy weather has been blowing through the south and my kids are on their 3rd snow day since!!! So, we have still not gotten back into a routine and regular life completely and I've now got two very unsightly cold sores to prove it! LOL My body is saying "ENOUGH ALREADY!!!!" I need a vacation from "Christmas Vacation." ;) So, needless to explain further, my blogging has been neglected.
In the weight loss department......
I did pretty darn good through the holidays. Halloween candy didn't phase me one little bit. Hopped off the wagon for one meal on Thanksgiving. Stayed strong clear up until Christmas Eve.....and have taken a bit of a detour since. Now, let me say, that I have NOT gone all crazy. I had some holiday food, Christmas Evening and Christmas Day. I was back 100% on plan the next day. Stayed 100% on plan till New Years Eve and had a NYE meal. Then I was about 90% on plan for a few other days. It just got really crazy especially when I had my Dad, two of Erik's siblings and their kids in the house and I was the ONLY person who is doing this. Erik is almost completely on maintenance now, so is eating mostly normal foods now. Now, the stuff I'm eating is not "bad" foods.....just not really on plan. For example, having a small soup and chili another meal which have beans in them....with a salad. So, for normal eating circumstances, this is actually a pretty good and healthy meal. Then, Aidan's birthday was on the 9th and I did allow myself to have cake. GASP!!! LOL
So.....it hasn't really been too terrible. I've not gained, but I've definitely not lost as much as other months either. I'm sitting at a 107 pound loss. So, basically 7 pounds lost over the last month with all the craziness and being off and on the wagon.
But........All that behind me now, I am back on plan 100% and moving forward. The holidays are past, the company is gone and there's nothing to even consider going off plan for, for a while. I have between 40 and 50 pounds I'd still like to and am GOING to lose!!! :)
