random nonsense.
I’m sorry I haven’t been very diligent about posting on a regular basis. After some heated emails and tongue lashing from family members and friends who follow this, I realized how important it is to stay on top of this. It’s very important to me in general, and the friends I’ve made through this are incredible. Things have just been crazy lately, which I know, is just an excuse. I usually like to have a topic or theme, but today, the theme is random nonsense and a dump of what’s going around inside my head.
So needless to say, I’ve gained some weight back. I’ve still kept off 75 lbs, but at one point, I had lost about 100 lbs. I let old habits creep back in and my stomach control my actions and not my mind. I’ve been doing better the last few days and plan to continue.
I was going to get an elliptical with part of my tax return, but I’m straightening things up at the fitness club I’m a member at, and they have tons of those machines, so I was thinking instead of an elliptical, I may get a BodyBugg. I’ve been thinking about it forever, and it would be a fraction of the cost that the elliptical would be but it would still be an investment in my health. As for the rest of my tax return, I’m putting it back and actually saving it for a rainy day. :)
So Biggest Loser the other night… Wow. I can’t see I’m sad to see Melissa go home. She has definitely been my least favorite. I don’t like how she basically said that she was “too small” to make it in the long haul there, kind of like she was making excuses or trying to justify her going home. She gained a pound. She isn’t the smaller person there. Miggy and Cheryl are about the same size and Alli won it and she wasn’t too big to start. I hate cling hangers too. I wonder who goes home between Darrell and Cheryl. I think Darrell probably needs to stay there more because he has weight to lose, but Cheryl is older. I guess we’ll see next week.
So how is everyone else doing? I’ve still been reading your blogs, even though I haven’t been commenting much. I’m lurking in the shadows, but soon I’ll be back out in the light. Also, Merry, are you still at the Green Mountain fitness camp place? I’m so impressed with you!!
