There! I said it! I am feeling like my old hot self!
Now, I am down 81lbs, still obese, but since I am tall, I am carrying better than most at my weight. I am rockin the high platform sandals! LOVE! I am like 6'3 in them, but I figure it makes me look twenty pounds lighter, right?? 5lbs for each inch.
Going on vacation in two days! Yay! We rented a house in Long Beach Island- on the Jersey shore, but not the Jersey shore you are used to from MTV. I won't be GTLing it, or at least no G and L! I plan to get my tan on, enjoy my sexy hubby, and my beautiful daughter and stepson.
One more day of work to get through!!

What's Up with Me?
Howdy Peeps,
At work, on a call, (where I do my best blogging)- I am multitasking! :)
Weight is kinda standing still this week- still down 79lbs! Yay! I would love to make the 100lb loss mark by my bandiversary in October, but, we will see. I am feeling good, and getting a lot of nice compliments about my weight loss. I am wearing my old clothes! I am between a 16W and a 18W, or 2x, depending on the designer, cut, style, etc.
I have been having a few stuck episodes of late- all predicatble, depending on what I am eating, when I am eating, or how I am feeling while eating. I find that lunch time is the best time for me to eat. In my office. Alone. If I am interruped, aggravated, or have company (am chatting while eating, and not thinking), I get stuck. I usually drink hot tea with my lunch- sipping before and during- despite not being band rule compliant, it really helps me. If I am particularly relaxed, I can eat more.
A couple of weeks ago I went out after work with a colleague for an early dinner. I hadn't had lunch, so maybe that's why I was able to eat??
We went to Osterio del Circo in midtown- recommend! The service was awesome, and they indulged us completely. The food was incredible. I had a great meal where I had a small salad- Arugula, Endive, sliced Apples and Bacon Salad with Blue Cheese Croquette for my entree, a couple small pieces of bread dipped in olive oil, two glasses of wine, (or three), and shared a panna cotta. The vino was Orvietto- delish! I didn't get stuck, enjoyed myself, and had a great time.
Sorry to tempt you with food- it was awesome, though :)

Checking In
Hi Guys,
Just a quickie to say that I am loving my progress, and am so happy that my earlier plateau at the 6 months mark seems to be over! I have to say that I am very careful about what I eat, but I think that's the point, right?? LOL
Anywho, things otherwise are good, very busy and stressful, as usual. Work is good, and I am still studying for my PMP. I need to make the time for that, as it is critical now, in this point of my career.
I am reading all your blogs, and commenting when Blogger lets me...GRRRRRR!!!!
Big hugs and mucho love,
Annie
