Last weekend, I went to Waco Regional Tennis & Fitness to inquire about a membership. This place is right down the street from my house and it's beautiful. I found of that they are having a sale that ends Jan. 31st that not only waives the sign-up fee, it drops the family rate down by $20 a month and includes tennis! I also picked up a business card for one of their best trainers (according to the girl at the front desk, anyway.)
Well, I finally emailed her and after a few back and forth emails, I decided to hire her. I'm excited! She is also the instuctor for some of the classes and the bootcamp they have every morning. She is going to re-structure my diet to include good food that will help shed the weight. I have never taken this kind of step before, so maybe this will be just what I need.
Last night, just as a start...I picked up some FF yogurt, fruit, Healthy Choice soups and WW dinners to have up at work so I will stay away from the snack machine and so far today....I have eaten pretty healthy. Now, I just need to get on the water kick.
Making changes, making changes.
This blog will serve as a record of my weight loss journey with Medifast. Along with documenting my progress (or failures) on my road to better health, I plan to share all the trials and tribulations, the high and low points, my feelings and thoughts, along with any other musings that may pop into my mind while on this exciting, life changing journey. I WARN YOU....THIS RIDE COULD GET A LITTLE BUMPY!

Here I go again, on my own....
Hola!
I have been gone for 5 whole months! In that time, I have finished an entire semester of college, spent two weeks in Disney World and gained 20 pounds. Yep! TWENTY pounds. Even though I had stayed between 225-235 for the past few years, I am now about 252 glorious pounds. GREAT. I blame the HCG disaster, but whatever.
All I know is I have never felt so FAT. My stomach, instead of being kind of empty and flabby, is now a round shaped belly of fat. It has no "give" left. The past couple day the front of my stomach has been itching like crazy too...last night I realized what it probably is. It is probably my stretch marks stretching! OMG!
So anyway...I just started the Spring semester at school and my job is going well. I am looking to move closer to work soon, but not right yet...so I believe my stress level is as low as it's going to get. It's now or never.
The nurse at work and I have inquired about getting Weight Watchers at Work up and running. I suppose that is my next endeavor. I have tried it before and quit after 2 weeks. What is different now? Not much, but I am just fed up. I will update my weight and measurements as soon as I start something.
I am fat, hear me cry.
