Here we go again...

Well I am ashamed to say it but shit got bad. 

It has been a long long time since I posted last & a lot has changed in my life.  It was almost 4 years ago to the day that I posted for the first time in this blog.  I thought I was at rock bottom then, but here I am, this is rock bottom.  I weigh almost 20lbs more then when I started last time, so this journey is going to be a much longer process, and I have no one to blame but myself.

For starters, it has nothing to do with the rebound of dieting - the transitioning back onto normal foods and gaining double the weight.  I held the weight off for almost 3 years, leading a normal life, and then 2013 happened.

2013 started off with a major life-altering surgery, followed by a nightmare house experience, piled on with an insane work load & then ending with the death of someone near and dear.  Before I knew it I was mentally fragile, and I took comfort in food.  My job is not easy - I work crazy hours, a lot of driving and a lot of drive thrus.  Instead of smart choices, there was a lot of fries, burgers, bagels & all those delicious things.  You gain 20lbs and then another 10, and you sort of give up and figure what's another 10 more.

So here we go again....

My goal is to be down into the 130's again by end of October. Let's check out these mortifying stats to start this off

STATS
Weight: 179.2 lbs
Thigh: 25 Inches
Hips: 44 Inches
Waist: 38 Inches
Chest: 41.5 Inches

I am off now to get back into the routine.  I will consume my first bowl of yogurt & oats, and start the attack phase of The Dukan Diet.  My goal is to make it to at least Monday on just protein.

Follow along & encourage me this go around - I am going to need it!
