Sorry for the Delay

Howdy Howdy folks! sorry for making you wait so long inbetween posts, I know how all 3 of you hang on my ever word ha!

This last week has been intense and WAY busier than I would hope a week to be. Did not do as well with food choices as I would have liked to but overall not a terrible food week. I really need to kick my exercise into high gear though, because that is looking sad!

I am excited because a co-worker and I are going to be doing the Shamrock walk the day after the parade in Downtown Indy, should be FUN! This also gives me a good goal again :)


Starting Weight: 216 lbs

Tomorrow I will:

- spend an awesome day with my momma
- take little miss H for a walk
- make sure my foodie blog is ready to launch on Wednesday/Thursday!

Wellness at Work

So today was the kick-off of our workplace wellness program. Nothing too crazy yet, just a few simple changes:

1. we were all given pedometers .... one co-worker might try and make us all competitive about number of steps a day :-)

2. we were split in "groups" based on the answers we gave to a wellness survey before break

3. we will be having monthly "lunch and learn" sessions on different topics to keep us all in the know. next week is the first one and we will be discussing e-resources to meet our goals.

4. we will be publishing a wellness newsletter every month for the staff to read

*note: when I say "we" I mean a group of staffers that make up the wellness committee*

I have also sent out a little note to members of my group about walking for 30 mins at lunch (we get an hour) twice a week to help with our fitness goals (and keep our daily steps average high ha!). So far things seem like they will be fun .... although I do eventually want to find a way to make this competitive ... because that is who I am!! ha!


Starting Weight: 216 lbs

Tomorrow I Will:

- walk 30 mins at work
- have dinner with the family
- work out with mom
- try not to go overboard at lunch (pizza, yum yum!)

2013 .. OH YEAH!

Okay ... 2013 and I are friends ... so far, ha! I have been having a great year, starting with a fun Great Gatsby themed party with awesome people, food, drinks, and games. Spilling over into a day with mom's pancakes for lunch, and then a day of lunch at Yats and shopping with the bestie while she's in town. Which of course leads to the unveiling of the goals:

1. Do one thing every week to make me feel special
2. Do one thing every week to make others feel special
3. Get to goal weight (I can feel the universe laughing/plotting as I type)

So far the weight journey isn't too shabby. Not as active as I should be but doing pretty okay calorie wise.

Starting Weight: 216 lbs
Current Weight: 191 lbs

Tomorrow I Will:

- have fun at wine night with my Theta loves
- start my work on getting tax stuff together and make my 3 budget options to show dad
