Feeling great!

   
     I know I haven't been posting as often as I used to. Usually this means I'm not doing well and don't want to face it. But, I am proud to say, this isn't the case right now. I am down 14.4 pounds since January 1st and I feel the best I have felt in a really long time! It could be more, but it most certainly could be less.
     This time around I am really working on living life while losing weight. I'm learning to accept that there will be times when I'm not in control and might gain a little, but I do the best I can do with what I've got and then get right back on track when I am able to. There are going to be weekends here and there when I don't eat the best and am not able to work out, and I'm trying to be ok with that.
     Roger has started to join me at the gym and I love it! Today I did the elliptical for the first time and I actually kind of enjoyed it! I am going to try to come up with a good cardio routine that incorporates the treadmill, bike and elliptical to avoid getting bored with my workouts. Roger does a mix of all 3 and I hate how much more he sweats than me! Dang men! I really hate sweating... I need to get over that!
     I have two months until life is going to get crazy with the nursing program. But I have a plan for that, too. Next week Holly and I are doing a 33 meal Instant Pot freezer meal prep boot camp. This is going to help so much when school starts. The Instant Pot has really helped us eat at home more, not to mention it makes some pretty delicious food!
     I'm gonna do another dress fitting soon, I think I'm just nervous. I'm thinking I may do it before our girls trip to Vegas for some motivation to not get too off track while we're there. We'll see!
