A few of you have sent emails asking how my life (job/diet/etc.) has been going. First of all, I appreciate your concern – ya’ll are just too sweet.
As for my day job – things are better. It’s busier now at the restaurant (I have tons of Student Groups booked this spring), so I am definitely needed right now. Although I have yet to complete my Doomsday Report showing how badly my event/group sales have suffered during this recession.
As far as my diet/fitness “progress” goes, there has been none. In fact, when I weighed myself on Monday I had hit a new all-time high. I had been ordering Chinese take-out every night, and hitting the dollar store and grocery store for all kinds of horrible CRAP over the past few months. You have no idea how fast you can gain weight when you gorge on Stove-Top Stuffing, Swanson Pot-Pies, and frozen Pizza Rolls for a couple of months. NOT cute.

But I got back to my Weight Watcher’s point regime immediately, and lost a couple of pounds. I also walked home from work once this week, and plan on doing so again tonight (it’s in the mid-60’s this afternoon). The TRUE test will be the weekend – I haven’t had a single weekend in months that I stayed on-track.
I would like to start doing my “Weigh-In” posts again – and I think I will do them on Mondays from now on. Monday is the day that I log my weight with Weight-Watchers, and reporting to you all on Monday gives me some incentive to “be good” over the weekend.
We’ll see what happens…
