Bad Blogger!

I am truly a bad blogger. I know. I really need to get at this more often.

So what's been happening in my life? Not much new. Still losing weight, trying to sell my house, and trying to land a new job because my current one sucks.

Still Losing Weight
So on this topic...I've lost about 30 lbs now. Yep. 30 lbs in 10 weeks. Not too shabby. I feel great, too. I don't actually see any difference in the mirror (because I never seem to see what I really look like), but it shows in my clothes. In fact, last week I broke down and bought some new, smaller pants at Target, because the baggy pants wasn't looking very attractive.

I'll be starting the transition back to "regular" food in 17 days. I'm both looking forward to that and freaked out by that. I'm sick of the same thing all day long, but I do like the weight loss and ease of just grabbing my meals and going (and also not being hungry). This next phase will teach me more skills for the kitchen, because I think I've learned a lot of things about my mental approach to food and ways to change that.

I also started doing the Couch to 5K program again. I was tired of just walking, so I started it earlier than planned. So far so good on that. 30 lbs ago my shins begged mercy. Now they seem to be taking everything in stride (get it...stride...run....teehee).

Trying to Sell my House
I've had exactly two showings. Ugh. Frustrating. I know this place should sell...if I could just get people in there!

Trying to Land a New Job
I have an interview tomorrow. Cross your fingers, put out those positive vibes, whatever you've got. I need to get out of this place! And this job seems like it would be a great opportunity.

.................

Well, that's all for now.

Hmmm... is there anything else you can do to turn your life upside down while playing the waiting game? I don't think the weight loss, job search, and selling the house is quite enough to keep you busy...

Good luck to you in all three areas.

You *do* look great - you can totally see the weight loss.

Glad we could walk today over the lunch hour. Let's do it again soon!

Thanks...I'm glad it's noticeable. I'd hate for all this "work" to be for nothing. :)

And yeah, I may have decided to juggle one too many things. :) But hopefully one or two of those will be resolved soon.

We definitely have to walk again soon. Hopefully soon we'll work closer together again to make getting together to walk a bit easier.
