I'd fallen so far off the wagon that I'm just starting over with the weight loss.
The good news: I haven't made it back to my all time high of 264.4 lbs Yay!
The bad news: I have gotten back to 243.4 lbs Yikes!
I know that this is entirely due to my lack of exercise.
So today I started using Wii Active, and I completely fell in love with it. Why? It has a journaling aspect that will definately keep me on track, and unlike My Fitness Coach it allows you to use the Wii Balance Board, and it allows you to decide low, medium or high impact for your workout. This is great since I recently reinjured my ankle and can workout on it, but I can't push it too much or I could cause further injury to that ankle. Even on the low impact I still got a fairly decent workout.
Anyway, I'm starting over today, and trying to take it a little bit at a time.

My new start...I know again :-p

Not much going on, but here are the highlights
Life is slowly starting to slow down a bit. Work is still work and hubby and the kiddos are all relatively well and happy.
We've switched to Fios at our house and have LOVED it. More channels over all and more HD channels...woohoo! The best part? It's cheaper than what we had been using.
Started going back to church on a regular basis back in January and the kiddos love going where we attend now.
Weight loss has been going the wrong direction so my goal is to get back on the horse with exercise and eating well.
That's about all for now. I hope everyone else is doing well.

Wow! it's been nearly 3 months!
I promise that I have been very busy, but I also have let several things slide. This blog for one...my weight for another.
I am going to try my best to get back on track with both shortly. In the meantime you can always follow the Twitter feed that I've added to the sidebar.

Weekly Weighin
I have to get back on track...wow! So my goal this week is simple...exercise 3 days this week for 30 minutes (I mean I was doing 1 hour 5 days a week before I slipped...so back up on that horse as it were.) Anyway, here are my results and as always don't forget to head over to One Weigh at a Time to check on the rest of the group!
All time high weight: 264.4 lbs
Weight last week: 215.4 lbs
This week's weight: 216.4 lbs
This week's personal gain: 1 lb.
Overall loss since October 8, 2007: 48.0 lbs
I have been eating well, and that showed in my body fat loss this week, but without exercise I know that I can't sustain that...so back to it!

No weigh in for me this week
Lots going on at work and at home, but mostly work...the Super Bowl...Gasparilla...and yesterday the inauguration...not that any of these have a direct impact on my workload (except Gasparilla), but the station has stayed busy with coverage. A lot of the people I work with have stuff they have to do with the Super Bowl. I am more of a backup for that (well backup for the week leading up to anyway).
What I'm trying to say, in not so many words, is this:
I had to cancel my weigh in appointment this week in order to concentrate
on other stuff so I can't really give an accurate update to everyone at this
point. I will be back up and running with an update next week.

My new year thus far!
I've been sick with (as I found out yesterday) the flu for almost 4 days now. Today is the first day that I've had any energy whatsoever. Still in bed, but not sleeping 14 to 16 hours today. Maybe, I'll be able to go to work tomorrow.
For those checking in on the Taking it off together posts: these have changed slightly...
I will still post my progress, but in order to view the group's progress you will have to follow the button posted on the side bar that looks like this

This week's personal loss: 1.2 lbs
Overall loss since October 8, 2007: 48.8 lbs
I'm going back to bed.
