Hey...remember me?? I know, it's been awhile. Today ends the first week of a new journey...again lol! I was just reading back through my blog, looking for some inspiration. The first part is very inspiring...I was apparently on top of my game, but then in the following years it seems to go down hill from there. Although, I did dust myself off a few times and try again at least...like I am now! When I started this journey last week, I was actually 5 pounds heavier than I stated in my last post. Yep, that's how well I've been doing...UGH!

So, here I am...AGAIN! I guess that's better than just giving up completely, right? I really, really, really, really, REALLY want to get back down to 140/150 lbs. I just remember feeling so much happier back then...although I know that I still felt "fat" but looking back at pictures, all I can say is, I wish I was that "fat" again haha!

Of course, it seems the older I get the harder it is to lose the weight (and easier to gain)...but I digress.
Andy is trying to lose weight this time too...he's gonna be 40 in May!! So, we have decided to do some meal planning this time. I made him a low-carb breakfast bake for the mornings, and meals for him to take every day. I also prepared meals for myself that way I'm not just wondering around in the kitchen grabbing whatever might sound good at the time, which usually ended up being something that probably helped get me to where I am today.

We are also trying to get in more exercise. We got a monthly membership at the Railway. I am going to try to go at least 3-4 times a week. We started a remodel on our kitchen this past weekend, so Andy might not get to the gym as often, at least this week, but construction is a pretty good workout too lol!

I am going to try to keep up with my blog this time so stay tuned!

Start Date : Feb 20, 2018
