Recently a Facebook friend made a blog on here. This reminded me that I too have a blog. It's been a year and a half since I've been on here (slacker!). On my last post I had expressed my concerns about my weight. Well I never really did anything about it then (double slacker!). But now I am working again, have been since August 2011. This job is nothing but walking basically. Since I've started I have lost 20 pounds. Yeah it's slow moving but that's my biggest accomplishment since the birth of my daughter (She is almost 4!). I still have issues with eating junk (and drinking Cheerwine) but since half of my waking hours are spent at work, I don't have as much time to eat.
In the past week or two I have made smarter choices in food (with the exception of Super Bowl Sunday, totally regret those choices). I seem to be more motivated now to lose weight. I attribute this new found inspiration to the fact that I am now SINGLE. Yes, for the first time in nearly five years I am a single woman. I want to gain back the confidence I had before this relationship.
Now lets get off the weight thing and talk more about the single thing. With this new freedom, come new responsibilities. I do not plan to jump in a relationship. I will not actively seek out guys, however if some fellas take it upon themselves to contact me, I will not turn them away if they seem like someone I'd like to get to know. But I will definitely take things slower than I have in the past. The main reason for this: my daughter. I will not let just anyone around her.
I would really like to talk more about the complicated situation I am in with this new single life (ie the weird living situation), but I think I'll save that for another post, now I must get ready for that oh so wonderful job of mine.
