My costume is of a woman who gained a few pounds.

:grin: And the good thing is I don’t have to spend a dime to look it. Now, let me go down the check list for my costume.

- Jeans a little too tight that when I sit down I have to pull them up over my tummy for comfort. Check!

- One headache from where I quit drinking coke which is making me look a little grumpy. Check!

- Frustrated look in my eyes from me thinking “do you really want to renew your goals on a Wednesday?” Check!

All in all, the costume is coming together!

Well, I’m taking baby steps to get my self back in the game of things. Gained about 7 pounds since reaching goal weight. Now I know that isn’t awhole lot but it’s a trend I want and need to stop. Plus, these 7 pounds feel like 12. I know how the bad food makes me feel. I just have to renew and refresh my goals.   I keep refreshing them though and never really put it into play.   I’m good for about 3 days and then I start slowing down like a turtle.    Maybe that should be my costume!

This isn’t just about me. It’s about my family and how long I want to stick around on this earth for them. It’s about walking a little faster and looking a little hotter. I have a family birthday party in about two weeks and I want to look good. I don’t want to be the person who has gained weight since they last saw me but the one who is looking great. Yeah, I want some jealous eyes on me. My ego needs a boost. Hey, Wonder Woman needs a boost now and then! I can’t always be a super hero 24/7. Paaaleeese. :razz:

Anyone want to restart with me? C’mon. Let’s get it going and get ready for the holidays! Let’s start on Halloween! What could be scary then to restart our diet on a candy day? :lol:

Well, day 1 went great. Onward I go!

Thanks to everyone who responded back to my last couple of blogs. You buddyslimmers are terrific in showing support. Thanks a million!

Well, day one of renewing my committment went great. I’ve haven’t been working out for about 3 weeks if not more so Monday was my fresh start day and I believe I did pretty well if I do say so myself. I ran my 3 miles. I would like to say it was pretty easy to do but that would be a lie. It had it struggles here and there but I did it. Also did my weights for 20 minutes so that’s another A+ for me.

Funny how exercise is supposed to make you feel better but it can have the opposite effect too. With muscles and bones hurting it feels like I have aged overnight. I guess it’s nothing too bad that a little Aleve can’t help. Now, today’s a another day so let’s see what I can accomplish today. Of course I have to have my coffee first and my dose of Young and The Restless here soon. Can someone please make that Janna character go away? :roll:

Have a good one Buddyslimmers! Let’s get through Tuesday with no fattening treats! Stay the course!
