Grade School Skinny

Well as promised here I am today.  I almost forgot, I have been so busy at work lately - a good busy.  I had something very exciting happen today that made me feel kinda sad.  I woke up bright and early as I do every day because of the baby situation (a two year old, a one year old, and an infant).  I read them a book, fed them breakfast, stripped down for a shower but first stepped on the scale.  The scale has been friendly to me the last few days.  All of last week I ate so poorly and did little exercise due to being out of town.  When I got home and stepped on the scale though it was not too bad - it was not good though.  I re-committed and started the diet again on Sunday.  I have seen from Sunday to today improvement already. 

Any who - back to me feeling bad about something exciting. 

The scale today reflected the same number as is on my drivers license - from when I was 16!!  I am sure it wont stay right there for a while because I bet I am actually about 2-3 pounds heavier with food and water in me (that is a 15 hour fasting weight - if that makes sense).  I was very excited but also a bit sad.  I think I was in denial about how big I was in high school.  I was happy for reasons that did not involve weight and so I guess I never paid too much attention to it.  I knew I was big but always thought "I am not as big as..." - again I think I was in denial.  Many weight loss ads refer to "Get High School skinny..." what if you were fat in high school too.  I need to get grade school skinny!

Well I am glad to see the weight coming off.  I am now 50 pounds lighter than I was this New Years and have 33 pounds to go to reach my goal and keep my TV.  Until I get around to updating my site a bit you'll just have to do the math rather than looking at the upper left to find out what I am down to.
