Happy Friday... Well let me bring you up to date on this crazy week that I've had... First of all as many of you know I started a new job on Wed. at a company called Saladworks. Its been a fun 3 days so far... and the best part is that all I've eaten these past few days is SALAD !!!
You think that I lose weight??? Today I walked almost 10,000 steps as I was touring stores with a fellow business consultant and we walked the Cherry Hill mall.. Now for those of you who have not had the pleasure of visiting the Cherry Hill Mall... they are in the process of remodeling, so when you want to reach the food court you are walking for miles... When you finally reach the food court you are famish, so hence.. a SALAD is outstanding...
So with all the walking that I have been doing the last few days, the long drive to Pennsylvania everyday and only eating 3 meals a day, and enjoying a balance breakfast, lunch and dinner.. you know what??? Think I will be celebrating my success of losing those pounds very soon....
So here you go.. you are all up to date with what's been going on... I am looking forward to a weight in tomorrow.. as my pants are falling off and I know for sure that I have dropped a few pounds.. Hoping that I can share that great news with you tomorrow...
Enjoy your weekend !!!
This blog was created to hold me accountable to my New Years Resolution of(2008)of losing weight and leading a heathlier lifestyle. As you can see it's 2011 and I am still working on it... Needless to say I was doing great until I stopped blogging. I look forward to your posts. I also wanted to use this forum as a place to share with you websites and or books that can help each of us in more way than one. Enjoy and always looking forward to your comments and suggestions.

Day 334 - Dec. 2, 2008
Hello... yes I know if has been a very long time... too long since I've blogged... Honestly there is no excuse. I don't even know what to say.. Except of course I hope that all of you had a wonderful "Thanksgiving".
So where do I start... Do I start with the lecture that I got from a dear friend who told me to stop all the baloney and start doing... Here words went something like... " you know you can write up a storm, and share all these great tools and websites, and you share all these wonderful things that you learn, but what about action... Take action.. what are you doing... You are blah, blah , blah and nothing... where are you today from 334 days ago.. No where different.. Yeah you learned a lot, but so what.. what did you do with all that information you learn.." - cindy mason
Well you know what she is right... I can write and write, and unless I do... nothing will change.. I won't lie, I learned a lot about what I am doing wrong, but did that change my habits.. no of course not.. did I start drinking more water, or walking.. no of course not.. there is no one else to blame except me.. What can I say - nothing honestly... she is 100% on the money...
So what does that mean for me... a new year is soon approaching.. a year of blogging and nothing new to share in my success.. Yeah I lost 30 pounds but I fell short of where I wanted to be by the end of this year... So where do I go from here...
Well one thing is to realize that I cannot make such a big audacious goal.. I need to take little steps that will become habits and make a last impact.. So in that I have changed my thinking about water consumption and understand the importance in weight loss.. I have started moving a bit more.. and with a new job in just hours... the next 5 weeks will be more moving than I care for... but in the long run it will be great for me...
Eating habits.. as I am eating ask myself if this is what I really need and don't deprive myself of the food that I love.. just need to manage how much I eat.. and I do that already...
So with that said.. as I embark on a new chapter in my life... ( New job in a salad place - think it might help?) I am also making that re commitment that the next time you see me you will say... wow she is following thru on her commitment...
So until then keep coming back here to check up on me, and I promise this time I won't let myself down, as I need to do this for me......
Make it a great day !!!
