Dec 30, 2008

Wow, the last day of 2008.  What a year.  I have gone from severe depression, to losing 58 pounds, working out, feeling good, and in a really good place mentally.  This was such a good decision for me.  I think this is the first holiday season that I made it through not gaining weight.  To lose was even more unbelievable to me.  I have stuggled a bit lately with my closet eating.  Had to walk through Walmart yesterday talking to myself, but it worked.  This has been a very stressful week with Mya and Pebbles eating sugar free gum and having to take them to the vet twice a day.  I have really not gotten anything done that I wanted to.  But they are doing better.  We should have the results from the additional tests today.  Hopefully everything will be good.  I have done well to not do emotional eating.

My relationship with food has also changed.  I think I respect it more now than I ever did.  It is there to nurish me, that is all.  I have to find other things to comfort me.  Food will just not do it any more. 

So my new goal....to lose an additional 15 pounds before we leave for Daytona in February.  That may be hard, but I really want to do it.  I also want to lose an additional 20 pounds by Memorial Day....first official day of camp.  I also want to run the Barrington Peeper 5k race.  

I will accomplish all of these goals.
