A New Day

What a summer...I slacked my way through the entire three summer months making excuses for eating junk and not exercising and now I feel kinda rotten. BOO! Not only did I screw up my own journey, but my hubby stumbled as well. We may have cooked a total of four times during the summer – we survived on pizza, hoagies, cheesesteaks, Chinese food and other take out junk. What a waste of money and calories!

Well, the mistake’s been realized and I’m happy to announce that WE ARE STARTING OVER! Today is a new day in my journey to losing 100 lbs. Back in August I ordered myself The Abs Diet for Women on Amazon. I started reading it as soon as I got it, but got disgusted with it and buried it under the bed. Last night I dug it out and dusted it off. Tonight I’ll start reading it again.

Rob and I hit the grocery store yesterday for the first time in about three months – pathetic, right? I’m totally bummed that I slacked this summer and missed all the roadside produce! *smacks forehead* Oh well – at least they still have a huge variety of fruits and veggies at the grocery store. We ended up picking up green beans, peppers, plums, bananas, apples and potatoes. We also got assorted lean meats, tortilla chips, salsa, sugar-free ice cream, 100% whole wheat bread and diet soda. We steered clear of the “no-no” foods we’ve been gorging ourselves on – bacon, butter, white bread... well, you get the idea.

I am not going to beat myself up over this, but I would like to apologize for letting you guys and myself down. I am renewing my commitment to myself today as well as to my readers. It’s time to move forward – let’s get back on track!
