Last Hurrah....

For the hundredth time.... I am starting over.....This blog is my accountability tool....I have been at my weight goal and that was before the weddings of my kids. And I loved being the mother of the bride and mother of the groom. When did disaster strike? Is 15 pounds a disaster? Well, it depends. I have clothes in my closet that do not fit. And they are not unreasonable sizes. I will never be a size 2 or 4 or 6 or 8....I got to a nice size 10....I want that back. Bad.

So this first entry is my "last hurrah doesn't everyone deserve one of those? This weekend is our family birthday blow out. My son in law's birthday is Jan.1, son Jan. 2, daughter Jan 3 and hubby is Jan 15. We are celebrating this weekend with our famous eggrolls. We love getting in the kitchen and cooking together. Also on the menu is lemon meringue pie, creme brule, chocolate torte from Austria and a strawberry cake. Yes, every birthday person's favorite desert. If that doesn't spell dietary disaster, nothing does. Wish me luck....

This is the last hurrah part. I am going to "throw caution to the wind. Monday is the day. I mean it. It is. I am going to:
1. get to the gym....every day
2. journal (hence, this blog)
3. count my points....honestly

So, here goes......hope any one out there that is trying to "loose it" will join me for the ride.....
oh yeah...I am gonna run a 1/2 marathon.....
