Well . . .It's been a while

Nov 30, 2009

Okay, I had surgery in 07, over two years ago. One thing I can say is I will never regret it. Right now I am struggling and something I have realized is that I will probably always struggle. That's just reality. So I just have to live consciously. Easy said, much harder done! :) After surgery I lost a good 70 pounds and felt pretty good. I then got laid off and moved to Las Vegas. I now live there still and have a good job. The bad thing is I stopped thinking about myself. Which is where trouble begins. Choices, those are the things that I have to be conscious of. So right now I have currently stopped drinking regular sodas, joined a gym, and hired a personal trainer. I've done pretty good going to the gym but of course I have my off weeks. I actually like it and have found that if I change cloths before I leave work than it is really easy to just go. The elliptical is my friend. The only thing that is irritating me is that I am honestly exercising more than I have in my life and I'm not loosing weight. But I know I'm getting stronger. So I'll just have to stick with it. I'm also trying to get back on eating more consciously. Thinking about what I'm putting in my mouth. I sit in front of the computer for 9 hours a day and its easy to munch if I don't think about it. I am also a night eater. So I end up eating the most calories at bedtime which of course is not good cause there is very little chance of burning much of it away. My water intake is off and on. I really don't mind water. I just have to fill up my container and then I'm good. I'm thinking of maybe finding a half marathon to train for and then a marathon. I like having goals, I do better focusing when there is a goal ahead of me. I have done two half marathons but its been a while and I love how good I feel when I finish one. So for now that's it . . :)
