New Condo, New Start

I recently moved into a new condo and now I finally have everything moved in and set up the way that I want and am sleeping here every night. Every time that you move it gives you a new start and a chance to get into better habits. These habits can be anything from a better cleaning schedule, making the bed, better organized, better diet, work harder, and these are everything that I am trying to do.

The fridge is filled with healthy food only. If there isn’t bad food in here, then there is no urge to eat at late at night. The only urge that I really get is to have a bowl or two of Frosted Flakes at night for a snack. Since moving in, I have been extremely motivated. I have completed more work at home than I have in about 3 months I think. I am eating a lot healthier. My meals still aren’t as healthy as they can be, but I am only eating one serving, so I will start losing weight just by cutting back the 2-3 servings I usually eat.

I had a real rude awakening the other day that I went to the grocery store. I never step on those scales at the store, but I was like, screw it I haven’t weighed myself in a couple months and my eating habits had been out of control. As much as I don’t want to share this number I will….that scale said 267! In 2004 before I was diagnosed I weighed 205, after losing the weight because of being sick for 3 months my weight went down to 175. So, that is over 60 pounds gained in 6 years, not very good.

I don’t think that the Publix scale was very accurate because just yesterday, which was about 3-4 days after the Publix encounter, my scale said 244. So unless I lost 23 pounds in 3-4 days, one of these scales is wrong. The picture says it all.
