Shannon,

You’re doing great so far, I think just talking about it, and acknowledging the need is at least one step toward getting whatever it is that you want from life.

I have fallen off the blog wagon, and the weight wagon many times. The important thing is that we just jump back on “where we left off” like you said .

Just a tip that you probably know already: Sometimes if I am in the writing mood, I write a bunch of posts (it won’t work for the weigh in of course) then schedule them, or leave them as drafts, this makes it easier for me anyway.

Congratulations for joining the contest. You’re a good writer so I am looking forward to your next post.

ginabad – oh I know. I haven’t had one today, but I’m craving it so bad, but at least the headache is already gone.

Cindy – I don’t know how much it’ll help. I know it’s helped some in the past. It’s not a make it or break it type of help. But really it’s just these dang headaches when I run out and the expense that causes me to run out. I’m sure I’ll still have them once in a while, but I need to go back to a couple times a week rather than a couple times a day. LOL I don’t do much walking, but I’ve been trying. Of course it snowed last night, so might be jogging around the living room instead. LOL

I also meant to add good luck to you. It sure is a struggle.

Eliminating soda hasn’t helped the weight loss, but I think walking did. Find someone to walk with, it’s more fun. I haven’t lost weight but have lost inches and have kept them off thru the long winter when we couldn’t walk. Was hoping to start today as it was supposed to be warm but the wind is still there and very biting. So maybe tomorrow.

Good luck!! I am not a daily soda junkie, but I cannot resist Coke when I see it, my husband has the same problem. Thankfully the kids think it tastes like the created-in-a-lab drink it is!

I’m petite, but I had a LOT of Coke drinks this fall, and I now have coke-bloat belly. (Sorta like a beer gut, I think.) Time to lay off the Coke addiction, lol!

Thanks Tishia! I don’t see me doing videos anytime soon. Baby steps. Baby steps. LOL

I do get my new exercise machine delivered in the next day or so though. I’m so excited! I’ll be able to exercise without killing myself…I hope.

Welcome back Shannon! Oh how I’ve missed you!!!!! It’s not easy being so publicly open about my weight but honestly doing weekly weigh in videos was the BEST decision I could have ever made! There’s just something about knowing that I have to get on that scale on video every week that really helps keep me accountable!

Good luck on this journey Shannon! I’m here to cheer you on and looking forward to following along on your journey!
