'berlygirl: "Present"

First I just want to start by saying GO Teri!!!
Great to see your post. I'm glad you wrote and found myself convicted to give you guys the skinny myself.

It will be 7 weeks on Wednesday since my first post, and here I am:

starting weight: 188.0
current weight: 184.6

So, I suppose that's not bad considering what a bad March we all had.
I did work out and have gotten outside more in general with the nice weather, so I'm on my way there. Food... ugh. Different story. Oh well, at least I know about it and I can work on getting the things that I like and are healthy back into the rotation. Part of it will be easy with the warm months coming because we grill more, I am pulling out healthier items like grilled chicken, pork chops, etc. If someone could keep me away from the coffee (skim milk or not... it's LOADED with cals) that would be a good start. I just can't give it up. Moving on.

I have been writing... a lot, I hope that this trend will continue.

I haven't been feeling well a good bit of the time lately, distracted at work, been feeling seizure-ish a lot as well, including now. Strangely, I don't know when to slow down and seem to suffer. This causes me to go back and forth between spurts of excessive activity (one night last week, 2 miles eliptical, 1 mile treadmill, and about 4 errands after working out including the grocery store) to downward swings of nothing... like this weekend during which I did next to nothing for two days.

I just feel like I have been running around on the same track over and over again for the last 3 years or so and it's beyond the point of being frustrating.

I am hoping to get a reprieve this summer which will break this cycle. I have one week off in May, my July/August schedule is light, November/December and March, May, repeat.

Well, that's all I have for now, I'm pretty tapped out.
