Hello, I am still here! I weighed in last night and I only gained 2.5 pounds over the holiday season! I am very pleased with this because I ate all sorts of goodies and did not do any workouts all week! That is pretty close to my original goal of trying not to gain more than 1 kg!
I have been very busy lately with a lot of personal stuff going on in my life right now and I have decided to try and maintain my current weight of about 149 lbs for a few months until I can get some of this stuff sorted out. Also last night I requested that my membership at weight watchers be put on hold. I just need to take a break for a few months.
In a few months when I have some things sorted out I will be back going full steam ahead!
I have still not been back to the gym yet, which is very odd for me but I hope to go back tomorrow night. Sometimes life happens and over the holidays it has really been happening to me. No need to worry though everything is fine, I just have to get some stuff sorted out.
One of these things includes moving. I know to some people this is not a big deal but I had only ever lived two other places when I moved in with Trevor. Plus we live in a very small town and money is a little tight so we will probably have a really hard time finding a new place. We are just taking it day to day right now.
I will not be updating my web site as much for a few months. Although I will keep everyone posted as to how I am doing at maintaining for a few months. But after a few months I will be back and updating 100%
K, that is it for me. I will however continue to read everyone's journal and comment as often as I can. You girls are my inspiration!
Take care,
Wendy

Hello, I am still here. I have had a good week considering I was at a pizza hut buffet and I have done a ton of baking! I only nibbled here and there and I did not do to bad with pizza. I have exercised everyday since Tuesday too. I had some close calls were I almost did not go. but I dragged my but out of bed and to the gym knowing full well that I will miss not being able to go next week. I also did my new weight lifting routine that I started last week. I think it is what helped me lose 3 pounds last week! I will post it in the New Year.
This will most likely be my last post of the year. I am going to be honest and I hope nobody is disappointed in me... I have decided to give myself the week off from everything so I can start fresh and get to goal in the New Year. I know I lade out this huge eating plan for myself over the holidays but I may have set myself up for failure. I am going to take it one day at a time and not deprive myself but also not completely overdue it! I am human and to me Christmas is family, friends and food! I know it should not be that way but it is and I don't want to end up being bitter at the end of the holidays. I know I will be upset with myself if I gain a lot of weight but I want to enjoy my holidays and when I stay at my in-laws I like to eat what ever one else is eating. If I do end up overdoing it like I did last year and I gain 6 pounds again at least I had fun doing it and I know I will get back to the gym and eating healthy 110% on the second of January. Sometimes I need a big gain to kick me into healthy Wendy mode! Also, I spend the whole year watching what I eat and working out like a mad man. I need a break. Sometimes, as most of you who have lost weight know, this journey can be very tiring and once in a while you just want to be like other people and eat what ever and when ever you fell like it and not have to worry about going to the gym every single day! I know I sound like I am giving up but I am not. I will be back here Jan 2 with bells on, and maybe some extra pounds but I am going to get to my goal (early) next year. I still plan on taking my the main healthy food that I like to eat with me like my weight watchers bread, salad, mango dressing, light cream cheese and a few blue menu frozen dinners.
Well, I guess that is it.
I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season!
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!!!
Only 2 more sleeps until Santa Comes! Yippee!
Take care,
Wendy
