I can't believe it's going on 6 months since I graduated from school and since my last blog entry!
Not a whole lot has changed since then. I did become nationally certified for massage therapy back on Aug. 12th which is when I took and passed the NCE. :) So that's good stuff.
I'm still working on getting my stuff all together for state certification. I'm hoping to have it all sent off by the end of the month and have my license number soon after so that I can start working!
As for the weight loss game... I'm sitting at 276 lbs today. I am done messing around. I've gained back pretty much everything I last last year..well i guess almost 2 now.. Its ridiculous and I'm fed up/disgusted with myself.
There are 12 weeks left in 2011. I have a goal of losing at least 35 lbs in that time. I KNOW i can do this if i keep my head in the game. Which means no more eating out for lunch and no more 32 oz cups of Dr Pepper and candy on my lunch break as well. I'm making it a clear point to plan every meal and drink at least 96 oz of water every day. These steps alone will make a HUGE difference over the next 12 weeks.
I'm also going to be working on getting my but moving. I'm going to work my way back into going to the gym 5 nights a week by the time winter hits. I will start with walking 3 nights a week around the neighbor hood and get myself to the gym twice a week for lifting. It's what needs to be done.
So I'm just going to do it. I'm weighing in every Monday right now for a 10 week weight loss 'battle' of which I'm on week 3 and I've made ZERO progress right now. I WILL make the most of the next 7 weeks of that competition and get a majority of that 35 lbs in the next 7 weeks. I think I'm going to start stepping on the scale every day again. That's what I was doing back when i was losing weight like crazy.
Well that's it for now. I'm going to try and start posting something semi daily from now on. maybe that will help keep me on track as well.
Wish me luck.
