I took a break from the whole weight loss thing over the holidays, because nobody likes somebody at their Christmas party who won't touch the cheeseball. And with all the extra holiday stress/travel/shopping I didn't think it would be a good idea to add any extra pressure to that. So I went in with the plan that I would be happy, as long as I didn't gain any weight between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day.
Success!
Most people gain around 7 pounds during that particular 6ish weeks, but (through no real effort on my part) I managed to avoid that, and have maintained my 30 pound weight loss. So yay, me. Or something.
I'm officially back on the wagon, counting calories this week, but I'll probably cheat tomorrow (Saturday) since we are just now getting around to Christmas with my dad's side of the family, and we're having a Mexican fiesta. Yeah, you can pry my enchiladas from my cold dead hands.
Hopefully I'll be back to posting regularly here again, although, I admit, I've been rather at a loss for content lately. Maybe it will pick up.
Anyway, time for the mandatory New Year's Resolutions:
1. Continue to lose weight. (I'm not putting a number on this, but I'm hoping for at least 50 more pounds. That's just a pound a week, surely I can manage.)
2. Be up by noon every day. (I know this doesn't seem like it should be a big deal, but J works nights, and I tend to fall into that same schedule. This should be an easier resolution to keep this semester though, because I have class in Amarillo one day a week, and clinicals at a local funeral home at least 3 days a week.)
3. Achieve honor roll this semester. (I have in all previous semesters, except one, so I think this will be an easy one too.)
And that's it.
Happy 2015, y'all!
