Ok, so back to the list....

Since my last update in November I have done the following....

Lost 22 lbs

Watched 7 movies on the AFI list

Read at least 4 books....gotta check my Kindle...there may be a couple more I've forgotten...

Changed my diet in the following ways: cut out soda, "sweet tea" and nearly all junk food. (No McD's, Wendy's, etc.). I drink 4-6 bottles of water per day. I've cut my portion size by more than half on all meals. I drink far less of the sweetened juices, and replaced them with "100 % juice" beverages, smoothies, and veggies juices (in addition to the water). Less gravy, less starchy food, less processed food. More fresh veggies, more fruit.

One thing I have NOT done, was update the content of my list. In a previous post, I'd decided that I needed to freshen it up. I realized that there were a couple of items that just no longer appealed to me, or seamed unfeasible. I'm going to review this over the weekend and see if I can get this done within the next few days, and breathe a little more life back into this endeavor.

OOOH!! I've been called out!

Tickateeboo asked if I'm ever going to update....

But I've been so busy....oh! how cliche' is that?

No really. Busy at work, busy at home. Stressed on all fronts.

So, here is the short list of crap that has had me stressed and busy...

Family drama in November
Tenuous resolution in December
Christmas dinner at my house
More family drama in January and February
Major fallout in Feb-Mar sometime
Work chaos since the beginning of the year...falling way behind
Health issues with aging mom and aunt

On the flip side....

Eldest is bouncing back and moving in a better direction in life.
Middle one is making things happen and progressing toward his goals
Youngest is doing much better in school than last year
Sudden boost of motivation/focus/organization that has allowed me to get (marginally) caught up at work
Awesome hubby
Lost 22 pounds and have improved my diet substantially

Now about that list......
