Busy As A Bee

Hey friends!  Quick post from work!  Somehow this has turned from a weight loss blog into a "life" blog, lol.  I still weigh the same as I did last week....remember how I said I gained all the weight back from the week before?  The amount I didn't want to report?  Well it's still there.  In case I don't have time to post tomorrow morning, I'll go ahead and tell you.  I'm at 247 lbs.  I basically maintained this week.  As hideous as that # is, at least I didn't get fatter I guess.

Things are going well at work....learning my job and taking on new stuff here and there.  I'm having a garage sale starting this Saturday.  If I don't sell much, I'll do it again the following weekend.  I found out I got approved for that apartment and I move in at the end of July!!!  So the next 4-5 weeks will be busy with garage sale stuff and then packing up the house and getting moved.  I'll keep popping in every few days to update you....and if I actually get my focus back on the food, then I'll pop in more often.  Hope all is doing well.  I'm trying to jump around and leave a few comments here and there....just not much time.  I haven't even been turning my computer on at night when I get home from work....there's just too much to do.  Tonight I'm pricing all of my garage sale items that I've already got set up out there, and also using some posterboard and stakes to make signs to put out tomorrow night.  I've been averaging about 4 1/2 hours of sleep a night since I started work last week.  I'm pretty much in zombie auto-pilot mode at this point.  :)

  5. Staying the same is much better than gaining! Happy yard sale. I am going to have one on Ebay.

  14. Not sure where you live in Kennesaw--but I am in Woodstock and would love to see if I can contribute to your sales tomorrow...I will be in the Kennesaw area tomorrow a.m. (Swift-Cantrell park, most likely) and then on to weigh in at Weight Watchers (yep, like you this is where I am...struggling to lose weight). Congrats on all of your successes...a new job, a new apartment...life is good!
