Hiatus Ended !

Happy Monday everyone ! I am going to begin blogging again today so for those of you that drop in there from time to time, you can start checking it again today.

For those of you that do and those of you that don't know, the main reason that I moved to Florida was to lose some weight and get healthy with the love and support of my family down here. I've decided I don't really want to turn my blog into a "diet blog" so I don't plan on posting many weight loss updates here .... instead I have created a little email distribution list to send out monthly email updates. If you want to be on that list, please let me know in comments. If you are already on the list you probably got an email update this morning that looks similar to this blog post.

So, I arrived into town on Tuesday, July 29th and the healthy eating began. We did our first weigh-in on Wednesday morning for our starting weight. We decided that Monday's would be our weigh-in day. My brother and parents have me on 3 meals a day and 3 snacks a day, all healthy......low carb, good grains, no red meat and lots of fruits and veggies.....so we had our first weigh-in this morning after only *5 days* and I had lost.......drum roll.....

.....14 pounds already, in just 5 days !! I know, WOW ! I was even shocked. I guess it is working. We started walking, a very short distance in the mornings, as I build up my stamina, but it is all going well.

Again, all further updates will be send via email at the end of each month, so let me know if you want to be on that list.

That's it for today, more updates this week.

14 pounds? That is great. I would like to be on the email list if I could: smtownley@gmail.com

I'm glad you're back to blogging! I'm jealous you're living in Florida... I love Florida.
