Dear Blog; Day 297

I am starting to get so lax on my health plan.  I am doing the bare minimum.  I really need to get refocused and re energized.  I have about 2 months before my family sees me and I really want to meet my goal by the end of this year.  So what if I don't meet my goal?  Is the world going to end?  No, I just won't have met my year long goal the world will continue spinning and I will continue to move forward.  I plan on sticking to this health plan until graduation.  I am hoping by then that I will have lost the whole amount of weight that I want to loose.  So I will have graduation, a celebration for my weightloss, and I get to move !  This next 6-8  months are going to be amazing!  A lot of hard work but amazing!.

Love, Angela

Dear Blog; Day 296

I am so far behind.  I feel bad.  I just have to do it.  Get it done.  These posts are going to be short and sweet.  I also just found out that I can't import my blog to facebook anymore so you all will have to come to the actual blog to read it.  So much more work for you!  :)

This is week 2 with my 5th graders and we are heading into halloween.  Who would have thought that it could be 90 degrees outside and october.  They say that we are headed into cooler weather.  I just hope that they are right.  I can't handle it being this warm in October!  Cross your fingers the temps go down.  I just keep thinking that this time next year I will be in Washington DC and it will probably be snowing!  So I guess I should really enjoy this weather while I still have it.  Boy I just can't win can I.

Love, Angela

Dear Blog; Day 295

Oh I am so close to 300 hundred days.  Can you believe I have managed to keep this up for so long?  I know that I can't believe it.  The hard part is continually being strong.  I am having a hard time being strong.  Each day I feel a little less strong.  Something is eating at me (and not in a good way).  I can't put my finger on it.  I have been sneaking little things, nothing carb related.  But sneaking is still sneaking.  I am not trying to be hard on myself because I admit I have done a phenomenal job, but I am reverting to old habits and I don't want to, not intentionally anyway.  I want to be able to not obsess about the left overs in the fridge all day or watch those around me eat there lunch bite by bite wishing I was eating that too.  I don't want the first thing I do when I get home to be to look in the fridge or to continually concerned about what I get to eat next.  I should be way past this....I wish I was way past this.

Love Angela

Dear Blog; Day 294 (43 weeks down)

I don't know why I feel I need to share with you what day of the week it is.  It could be that I am so far behind that it keeps me in line so I don't forget what day of the week it is!  I didn't make it to choir although I should have but I did make it to all 3 hours of church today which (pat myself on the back is an accomplishment).  I have tried to make sundays homework free, but it just hasn't worked out that way.  Such is life.  Monday starts week 2 with my 5th graders.  I am really enjoying this class.  I really really like 5th grade.  My teacher doesn't have me do a lot yet but I am hoping as I win her over that she will give me more and more responsibility.  

Love Angela

Dear Blog; Day 293

I was really looking forward to spending some time with my movie friend.  Since both of us have such busy lives these days we hardly ever get to go see movies together.  So we made a date...and we went to see The Real Steel.  I thought it was pretty decent.  I really liked all the action and how can you go wrong with a cute little kid and hugh jackman; I mean really!

After all that excitement I headed home to.....do homework!  Are you shocked?  I mean really who would have thought that I would be spending my day doing homework.

Love Angela
