Trying each day to remember to stop and smell the roses... The fun is in the "getting there"...

I, like many others I'm sure, get too caught up, too lost in the hustle and bustle. Do you ever stop to watch a sunset? Stop to feel a nice cool breeze? Stop to feel the grass under your feet? I want to slow it all down and breathe it all in.

Keeping me on track:

get it together!!

I realized this morning that I really need to kick it up a notch!  I have not been great about getting in my protein and I have been falling victim to the carb-monster more and more.  I have been eating a lot of fruit and more bread than I should.  Not a lot of bread, but the point is, I need to focus on protein more.  I also haven't been getting the workouts I need.  I feel like I am doing pretty well on this journey, but I could be doing better.  Yesterday was my 4 month surgiversary.  I am down to a 22 pant from a 30 and I am down to a 3x shirt from a 5x, so I am happy with that.  I have lost 70 lbs in 4 months, and I am happy about that.  But I am also not feeling a lot "stronger" and I know that I need to get my body in shape.  Losing the weight is only part of the adventure.  I need to make sure I am making the lifestyle changes now to be able to live the rest of my life as a healthy person.  So, I am re-commiting.  No more excuses!  It's time to get it together!
