Boo :)

Wow time sure does fly.

Time has certainly gotten away from me these last few months. I started a new job at work (covering a mat leave for 1 year) which I absolutely love but it has taken up a lot of time and energy. I realized that I started putting less time into ME and putting too much time into work.

My diet has been a bit unrestricted over the last few months. Last week I had a weigh in at the gym and weighed in at 240, so I while I haven't made any progress, at least I have remained the same weight wise. I have continued to work out hard and have fallen into a routine of working out for two hours on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, sleeping in on Tuesday and Thursday and then getting in some sort of activity at least one day on the weekend. This has been working for me so far.

I have officially signed up for a sprint triathlon on September 4 of this year. Swim- 750m, bike 20k, run 5k..... I am going to try to put as much effort into training for this as I have put into my job for the last 3 months.

I will try and post more often. I know I always do better when I am posting.

A new day

Well, here I am again. It took me 3.5 years to lose 50lbs with w.w. and approx 1 year to gain it all back. This morning I weighed in and I am 2lbs away from from starting weight. Soooo, I'm hoping this blog will be a place for me to vent, share and just get things off my chest. Lots of internal things have gone on in the last while and some big stuff is going on right now, I just don't want to internalize my trials and tribulations any more.

So , here we go,

Start Weight 276lbs (god, that is hard to write, but necessary)
