At it Again in 2010

Okay Okay Okay soooooo I have been a horrible terrible slacker...wait take that back I have been pretty darn good at slacking, its actually doing things that I have failed miserrably at!! As you may have noticed I haven't blogged in a few days, well okay a couple weeks. I know I know Im horrible at this. I never was any good at journals or diaries growing up because I would just forget, then put it off, but I made a promise to myself that I wouldn't quit this. And by golly if it kills me Im going to really try and keep this bad boy going!!
So let's recap...Christmas has come and gone and we are officially in the second week of 2010, crazy huh? So I kinda pooped out on my working out the week before Christmas, when my work-out partner worked a ton of extra shifts and I for some reason thought I didn't want to work-out by myself...big mistake. As a result I strayed off my diet...started drinking again (sodas silly), eating lots of greasy foods, and of course Christmas cookies! As a bonus I got pretty good at making those cookies, finally. And as a day turned to week, turned to nearly a month, I realized that I had put on all the weight I had lost along with a few extra jolly jiggles! So I figured I would start the first of the month...New Year's Resolutions and what not. Well that baby came and danced right past me. So since its Monday and I have a thing about starting stuff on Mondays (makes for an easily measurable week) I have once again vowed to stay on my work out and diet plan. And while I haven't been completely stagnant the past few weeks (helping with horses, working, and that one bike ride) I plan to stay motivated and moving as much as I can. I really wanna meet my weight goals this go around. Currently I am hoping to lose at least 50 pounds with most of it being lost by May so that I can confidently call a recruiter!
I started again with the working out, I wasn't necessarily back to running my 1.5 miles like I was before but I did do the bike for an hour, so as a first-day-back-to-the-gym piece I don't think it was terrible. I may even go on a bike ride around the neighborhood a little later tonight. I have also been drinking Slim Fast(ish) shakes, they aren't terrible by the way! And taking Vitamins so I feel better which of course motivates me to continue feeling better.

The Numbers:
Bike- 11.79 miles...65 mins...370 Cals.............>$4 in savings

The Food:
Breakfast-2 poached eggs, 2 sausage patties, biscuit, lemonade
Snack-Peanuts
Lunch-Apple slices, Chicken Sandwich(BK), Gatorade
