An update:

So I weighed in today. I am down 1 lb since last time I weighed in. So that is good. I am reading South Beach Diet & talking to a couple of my old friends from high school to see how they have lose the weight. I am trying to get a system to work for me. We are leaving for a 10 day vacation, so I am going to try to pack my running shoes & not be too embarassed to actually workout with family while I am gone. I have been eating less at meals and hope I can keep it up when I am surronded by family & stressful situations. But my total weigh loss it 5.8 lbs & coming. So only 46.2 more to go. Maybe I will get one of those weigh loss tickers you see on some blogs. Who knows besides from the sounds of my screaming children, I better get to work.

Been Gone . . . .

I have been gone . . . for a couple of months so it seems. So here are the details of my life that you missed in between. I got pregnant in April sometime, so I no longer focused on losing weight. I am pregnant, so I don't need to worry as much. Here is where it got rough . . . I went in for my first appointment a week ago Thursday, during the ultrasound there was no heart beat. So they told me 99.8 percent sure it was a miscarriage, but since I wasn't positive on my last period date they decided to wait a week & see what happens. So I spent days crying & feeling bad . . . wanting to do nothing , with a slight prayer that I could be in the 0.2%. So I went in last Thursday & still there is no heartbeat. So if is official, I am having a miscarriage & either they will wait for me to pass it or i will go in a a two weeks and have a D&C. So this also means I need to refocus my energies back on my original goal. Even though right now i am still sad and am craving the call of chocolate. So at this point in time to lose my 52 lbs in 52 weeks, and the year being about half over, my I need to lose rough guessing I need to now lose 2 lbs a week. So I will try to be better about weighing in the middle of next week we head home for a two week visit with family . . .but I will try to now focus on this instead what i have lost. I let you know in a day or two how it is coming along.
