• A month gone by

  An apology to the readers of my blog...as I am sure you have noticed, its been more than a month since I posted last. What can I say? Xanga is kind of low on my priority list. But I now have an evening of no working out, no playdates, nothing but sitting at home...so I thought I'd update my blog.

  Well, last time I posted I mentioned that I was 4 1/2 weeks into a biggest loser challenge. 8 weeks has come and gone, and I didn't win. In those 8 weeks I lost a total of 11.75 pounds and was in 7th place (out of 15 people). Of course I am glad about the almost 12 pound loss, but a little sad because I didn't work as hard as I knew I could have. But in all honestly, I was just beat. I have been working hard to lose weight since January and I was just tired of pushing myself so hard. So now for the rest of the summer, I am just working to maintain my weight, and not lose. I am still going to the gym 3-4 times a week and still eating healthy, but I am not beating myself up if I skip the gym one day or if I have a tasty treat.

  Since I last posted, I became a Creative Memories consultant. I am taking another try at the Direct sales business. I know this is a product I can sell, because I truly believe they have quality products and I use them regularly. I just need to find customers. So, I will give it my all, and if I have success, GREAT, but if not, oh well. At least I got some great CM stuff at a lower price.

  Another piece of news is that Phil was offered a promotion. He's going to be going into the first step of managemnent in his company. I am very excited for him, mostly because it was a situation that this job was offered to him soon after the girl who he is replacing gave her notice. So I am glad they are recognizing that he is capable of much more.

  That's kind of it for now....I'll try to update again soon...
