So How Long Has It Been?!??

It's been waaaaaaay too long.

But I have to be BACK and I have to make more progress than I am doing now. Thankfully though- that I have been making some progress this fall (and late summer) but not much before that. Yes, I have to admit that I was reaching that horrid limit of mine... 140 lbs. And for a few days, the fluctuations were going OVER, and that was what spurred me to just get back to it. It's taken a long time though- to just lose my way back to nearly 130 lbs, but I feel better for it. But again- I need to lose more and I can't just sit here and think that it's enough. Although it is quite acceptable and easily manageable.

So now I'm doing the most stupid thing... I'm thinking of trying to do a 90-day program again (that's not the stupid part), but to do it THROUGH the holidays. Is that NUTS or what? Is that setting myself up for dropping out or what? But hell... I think I need to at least give it a shot. Even if I did HALF of what was scheduled, it would still be more than I am doing now. So it can't hurt, that's for sure. Okay, well- it might hurt like hell when I get sore, but it can't hurt the fitness journey.

I have approximately 90 days until my next birthday. Think I can give it a shot? Will I? Could I? Should I?

I should. I could... and I will.

But then that means taking a few pre-program photos again, just to show where I am at, so when I get to be 44, I can show where I've been. And show where I hope I will just simply STAY (by then) and not keep bouncing up and down on the freakin' scale. Or having jeans that fit, and "fat jeans" just in case, and then some "skinny jeans" too- for the OTHER just-in-case. I need to just have one middle size that FITS and let it be that way. And STOP the darn fluctuating.

It's not like I don't know what to do, or what works. I know the info, I have the workouts, I am NOT disabled... so I just need to DO IT. Once again, it is TIME.
