Hellllllllo!!!

Hello blog readers!  I'm so sorry for neglecting y'all.  I am now on vacation and will dedicate some time here.  I need it.  Here are my updated goals:


January- Finish the Tinkerbell 1/2 Marathon - Completed woot!
February- Stick with my diet  I give myself a "C"
March- Increase exercise- in progress... doing well so far!  Started & completed a Whole30!
April- Turn 30 (Yikes!)  Survived turning 30 and completed my Whole30.  Then fell off the bandwagon.
May- Go to the American Humanist Association convention in San Diego  That. Was. Amazing.  Tim and I had a great time reconnecting, discussing important issues, and meeting new friends.
June-  Stick with my diet and exercise- Currently in progress.  I started a dietbet and another whole30.  We have the adoption party coming up next weekend and I'm thrilled to see so many friends and family members that I haven't seen for awhile.
July- Girls' Trip to Vegas!!
August-
September-
October- Long Beach 1/2 Marathon (I was absolutely talked into this by Shannon.  I blame her).
November-
December- Celebrate meeting all of my goals and losing (hopefully) 50lbs.

Overall, I'm down about 19lbs and 10ish inches from Christmas.  And for the first time in a long time I see me meeting my goals. 

Things were rough at the end of the school year- my work stress carried over to home.  But I'm happy to announce that things are going wonderfully now.  We're all in a routine and the kids (and Tim!) love having me home.

So, do you like it?

The new layout that is. 

I think as I take new body pictures, I'll have the progression instead of the ones I have now.

I had a good weekend.  I went to Anthropologie and tried on this dress.  In a 12.  And if I didn't have to take deep breaths or sit, it would have been just fine.   So I ordered the 14.  It should be here soon.  If I need to get it taken in later, I will.  But a 12?  That's insane.

I have a feeling the next couple of weeks may be slightly difficult.  We're going on vacation to San Francisco.  But.  I know the foods I can and shouldn't eat.  And I'll be with some of the most supportive people ever.  And I'm sure Ghiradelli will have some dark chocolate for me to munch on.

I also hope to hit a new weight milestone soon.  20 lbs.  ::fingers crossed::
