I'm Back

As you are well aware, it has been 2 months since I have posted. No, I'm not dead..just really busy. Having this blog has made me realize that I need to take some time for myself each day. It is sad when I can't get to the computer for 10-15 minutes by myself just to write on my blog.

In the 2 months since I have posted, I have not been to Weight Watchers and it shows. I went this Saturday and weighed 249.2 lbs. So, I have gained 16 lbs. since Thanksgiving. I could lie and say that I don't know why I gained it, but let's be honest...We All Know Why We Gain Weight!! I am to the point that I am swelling so bad it is uncomfortable for me to wear any type of closed toe shoe, including tennis shoes. If you've never had your feet or ankles swell, then you wouldn't understand.

I joined a gym on Saturday also. Fitness Plus, here in Milledgeville. It is great and I am excited! It has childcare, which is a biggie to me since I have 3 children. The thing I love the MOST is the Ladies Fitness room. That's right!! Ladies ONLY...that's where I will spend the majority of my time, unless I lose about 50 lbs., then I might venture out into the "big" area where most everyone works out. Bo (the owner) walked me through all of the cardio and weight equipment on Saturday and today will be the 1st day that I get a good workout. I am pumped and ready to go. I know that I will need to do cardio as well as the weights and I will just have to make myself do it. I feel so comfortable in that gym. I don't feel like everyone is looking at me and going.."OMG! Can you believe that girl is in here??? man I hope she don't fall out from exercising..." You know that some gyms will make you feel like this. Anyway, they have a lot of classes also. My husband and I want to take a spinning class. I have heard about how much fun they are. Should I get into shape first? Or just go for it?

Oh well, I need to get to some heavy duty house cleaning - with clorox and lysol. 2 of my children have had the dreaded stomach virus this weekend and I feel the need to wipe down and spray down EVERYTHING they have touched!

have a wonderful day and I will make a resolution to post every night.

Hey Becky!! You are going to have to show me how to add pictures and such. I'm not as savvy as you on this blog.
