Here's an olive branch!

Wow. It's been almost a year to the day since I've posted on here. How unbelivably awful of me! :)

Well, weight loss is going slowly but surely. It still amazes me how different my body is responding to EVERYTHING after having Corbin.

I love my blog. But, I don't think it emcompasses enough of what I'd like to cover. So, my husband and I are going to start a joint blog instead. Alot of you may not like the new direction of the new blog, and if so I apologize. However, I need to have a less restricting place to blurb, ya know?

Here I feel like I only need to write about weight loss and PCOS, which is a MAJOR part of my life. But, you know how quirky I am, and I'm more than that.

I'm a mom. I'm a knitter and seamstress. I'm an Atheist trying to raise a critically thinking child in the bible belt. I'm a PCOSer. I'm thin, big, thin, big, medium. I'm a joker.

I also want to share my husband with the cyber world. He has so much to share and give without an outlet.

I'm setting the new blog up now and will be back when it's done with the new link. Please, if you enjoyed at least some of my ramblings, mosey on over to the new blog.

Love and thanks for all the support!

Woo Hoo!

So, after my not so graceful breakdown last week, I am back on track with more ferver than I've had in a long time!! I had a breakdown just like that last time I lost weight and afterwards, I never looked back. I have done so well since then, and enjoyed it. Not like I used to do, where I'd eat healthy but be LONGING for something junk.

I'm already back down 9 pounds. And, I passed my first holiday test! My inlaws did their Thanksgiving on Sunday. I knew they wouldn't provide anything healthy, except the organic turkey they bought just for me (how sweet!). So, I brought a salad, a corn bean thing, and I made a ginger butternut squash pie from scratch. They all went over SO well, and I ate small portions and they were healthy, and I just, I'm so tickled with myself.

I know seeing negative comments about myself isn't fun or cool, but it's what works for me, to get my butt in gear!!
