188 Again.

So today Rene and I had lunch at a place called Pig Iron BBQ. It was grub. Sure they have BBQ dishes. Yet even better than their BBQ are the really fantastic side dishes like collard greens and creamed corn and potato salad and sweet potato french fries and corn bread dressing. The sides are so good that they have an entree that consists of a selection of four of them. I am giddy just talking about it.

Sadly, this is a perfect example of the past 14 days of holiday and snowmaggedon binge eating. I just completely lost all sanity when it started snowing and didn’t stop for days and days and days. This meant I was staying at home all day baking (why did I get rid of cable?) and not going to the gym. It’s a slippery slope and suffice to say, I am off the tracks and back at 188 lbs again. Ugh.

A year ago I would have really starting beating myself up over having a setback like this, but nowadays I am just looking at this as a minor slip up. Not the end of the world, but something to be mindful about. There are wonderful things happening despite what the number is on that scale. I am in love with the life that I am making for myself and I’m not gonna let a “slip up” stop the progress.

And that’s what’s different about me in 2008.

    In the interest of full disclosure, please note that product links redirecting you to other sites such as Amazon, BlueHost, Freshbooks and OpenSky may take you a purchase page of a company where I am a member of an affiliate program. As a result, I will often get a small percentage of the revenue or a commission off of something you have purchased. I am not otherwise paid to link to these sites, nor do I link to any products that I don't actually use or covet in real life. On the rare occasion I accept payment to review a product, it will be duly noted in its associated post.

    Have no fear - you are under no obligation to buy anything to get the full enjoyment of this site. We can still be friends even if you never click on an affiliate link. Rest assured, this is all low pressure. I will never show up at your door with tiny vials of Avon perfume or trial jars of pearl cream to entice you. That said, I do truly appreciate when you do purchase something from a linked site - it all helps to keep the lights on and a roof over our heads.
