It's been time...
Lots of time.
I am now working 3 jobs. Raising 3 sons half time with my ex. Taking a class at community college.
And gaining weight.
Life marches on.
But I will make the changes I need to make.
At one point during my divorce I was down to 111 lbs. People said I was skinny, but I felt great. I'm going to do that again. I have to get serious.
Part of the reason I've gained is my live-in boyfriend. He is fat. He eats a lot. We go out to eat a lot. He drinks a lot of beer.
And then yesterday he told me he wants to start eating salads for lunch...
WHAT???
OK. I had planned on starting April 1. I told him that. I haven't stepped on the scale in months. But I will on April 1.
Goal is 111 by the end of the school year. That's about 3 months. 20ish lbs in 3 months. Totally doable. Especially since I will be down to only 2 jobs by the end of April so I can go to the gym.
Goal is 105 by August 1. That's when I go to Disney with the family. Gonna be wearing lots of swimsuits.
Method: No Carb. This works for me, at least to drop the first 10. After I'm below 120 I'm going to have to drop other stuff. But I'm starting with no carb. Plus I feel better when I do it.
Anyway, so I'm back. Yay!
