The Only Choice

Vicki Saves the Day…Maybe My Life

Posted on: March 18, 2010

I stopped blogging, and I don’t even know why. I gave up on myself, before I even gave myself a chance to get started. I hadn’t even thought about my diet, or anything, and then I got some comments from Vicki asking where I was and saying that she hoped I hadn’t given up on my healthy lifestyle. Well not only had I given up, it got worse! I have gained weight, yeah that’s right after not weighing myself since right after my husband deployed, a little over 2 months ago, I now weigh 207 lbs! Heavier than I ever have in my life. I wanted to cry…but I didn’t because I knew that I did this to myself. And I also know that I am the only person that can change it. So here I am, ready to give myself a real chance, without giving up before I even get started! And a HUGE thank you to Vicki for getting me back on here, who knows it may save my life šŸ™‚

I woke up today with a crazy headache, and wasn’t too hungry, so I waited a little later than usual for breakfast. I did eat healthy though! I had a Green Smoothie, and man was it yummy! It consisted of 2 scoops of vanilla protein powder, 1 cup of frozen tropical fruit, 1 medium banana, and 2 cups of fresh spinach, plus water. I blended it all up, and it was quite pretty, and very delicious! I consumed my smoothie in a bowl, with a little “Eat, Pray, Love”, I just started it, so I’m not quite sure how I feel about it yet!

Not sure what lunch is going to be, but I’m thinking maybe a crack wrap (Flat Out Wrap, hummus and laughing cow cheese) mmm. No other plans today, as I have a terrible sinus headache…I forgot my allergies don’t like Ohio. Hoping I get to feeling better so I can take my dog out to the reservoir for a nice long walk. We could both use it!!

What branch of service is your husband in? Mine is a Marine and he’s deployed right now to Haiti. He should be back soon though but will deploy again for 7 months in July. Deployments are the best time to lose weight. It gives you something to focus on and you have a goal for when he comes home šŸ™‚

Welcome back!! šŸ™‚
