I was so scared of nothing

I did it I stepped on the scale this morning and it was not at bad as I thought it would be. It actually showed that I was down 0.5lbs!! I will take that anyday! I guess it was all in my head and I was scared of an imaginary huge number.

Halloween and College

It is that time again, Halloween. Yay! Now if only I can curb my appetite and refrain from raiding my son's trick-or-treating candy. That is going to be a hard one since I need to keep the candy up so he doesn't eat it all at once, but then I know where it is and he already gave me permission to eat whatever I want. I love him.

Just a little update since I tend to forget I have a blog and then remember about the same amount as I focus on my weight loss and tracking my food. College started again and that has been keeping me busy so I really haven't been getting to the gym, but I am taking a Spinning class at school on two days a week. Spinning totally kicks my butt, yet I keep wanting to go. I definitely have a love hate relationship with Spinning, but it does give me something to look forward to every week.

I have also picked up a fit bit and it is cool to see exactly how many steps I have taken and calories burned in a day. I am, however, avoiding the scale like the plague. I am keeping tabs on how much stronger I feel during and after Spin class and lately I have been able to keep up with the class much better without getting up in the middle of a ride to "use the bathroom". Now I will attempt to continue to update with weekly post and maybe even get on the scale next week although I am afraid that I am heavier then before, maybe even more then I ever have been. There is no time like the present.
