I'm Back!

Well look how time has gotten away from me. Just over a year later and I have gained all the weight (plus some) back and we are still without a baby. I did have my surgery last year for endometriosis. It did not help. For the last six months I've taken birth control to stop my periods. This has not helped (well it has but not completely). The birth control has helped by taking away the debilitating pain I used to get when I actually got my periods but it has not taken away the constant daily pain I have in that area. I have another family doctor now and an appointment with her on the 21st to see who she will refer me to. Last June I got my dream job working for the City of Surrey at City Hall but it was only for a 6 month contract. Before it expired I was offered a one year maternity leave position in October. I decided to go on birth control and put a hold on the baby thing until I get on permanent full time. I could get pregnant now and qualify for maternity leave but I would prefer to have a job to come back to especially if I have a baby to look after. I don't know what happened to the weight loss thing. It seems like I always fail, I stop blogging and working out and my food doesn't get tracked anymore. It also seems like I always start my "lifestyle change" in December. As I did yet again this year. Like I can't start in January with everyone else because that would be too clique. This time I started December 26, 2011 at 208.4 pounds. Almost 7 weeks in and I've lost 12.2 pounds bring me down to about where I left this blog off last year. So now I'm 196.2 pounds (as of today) and next year I'll be damned if I say that I'm in the 200's again. This time around I'm going to post my favorite healthy meals with pictures!
