I am still alive. I have
First off: I have jumped ship from Blogger to Tumblr for a variety of reasons. One being that I was getting too caught up in the URL of One Thirty Six. I know it is just a number, but I don't want this journey to be defined by a number. Yes, I still have the same goals but above all, my main goal is to be honest with myself. For my entire life, I have brushed things under the proverbial carpet to avoid dealing with them. This kind of thinking has gotten me nowhere and I am ready to make a change.
So I will be blogging over at Honestly Amy (honestlyamy.tumblr.com). I invite all 5 of you (and anyone else who stumbles across this) to follow me there.
I continue to read your blogs and am inspired by your progress.
What I've been up to: I returned from my vacation weighing 1 pound less than when I left! But I started a new job and had a difficult time adjusting to working full time again after being unemployed for a year. I didn't keep up with the progress I made over the summer and by the end of September, I was up to 265 lbs.
I put aside my fears and joined Weight Watchers with a friend. I made quick progress at first and have since dwindled both in weight loss and motivation. But as of this writing, I am weighing in at 251 lbs. So I'm at least headed in the right direction. I've lost 5% of my starting weight and I am looking forward to moving into the 240's.
I will elaborate much more as I ease back into blogging over at Honestly Amy. Please come and join me.
Take Care,
Amy
