I am still alive!

Well, it has been a long couple of months, and obviously I have not kept my commitment of keeping this blog updated, nor my commitment to exercise and lose weight. I won't go into a long sob story and list my excuses, because we all know that is all that they are .. excuses. But I will just say that it has a lot to do with the fact that we had an unexpected move to another town. We are all moved and mostly settled in, so I really have not excuses for myself at this point. Summer is almost over, the kids start back to school on Monday and life will be back to a more consistent schedule.

I am shocked and amazed to report that even though I have not exercised in over a month and I have been eating like a mad man .. I have managed to maintain my weight. However, I am guessing that I have lost muscle and gained fat .. which of course, is not what I want .. but it is time for me to recommit and get going again. In our new home we have access to 3 community pools. We go swimming a few times a week .. that means me in a swim suit .. not a pretty sight. However, it motivates me more to lose the weight so that by next summer I can feel a little bit more comfortable in a swim suit ... I think I am past the point in life of being able to feel great in a swim suit, but we will see :)
