Well, week 2 of maintenance is now complete and I am maintaining my weight just fine so far. Maintenance is a whole new ballgame. Totally different mindset and not easy. After 19 months of wanting to see the scale numbers go down, it is hard to want to see them stay the same or very close to the goal weight. I have some play room with a loss last week but not enough that I want to just say to heck with it and go wild.
We are on the move again by the end of October. Things just are not working out here in the new apartment and it is best if we get outta here ASAP. Most people want to eat when they are stressed and I WAS like that too. Now I find I am just the opposite and I am very stressed right now but am making sure I am eating ALL my daily points.
It is so important to fuel our bodies properly with healthy foods. I have learned that not eating or not eating the proper foods is a surefire way to put the pounds on.
My Journey to a Thinner, Healthier Me
Welcome to my Blog. I hope you enjoy reading along as my journey goes along, my rants and raves, my successes and my disappointments.
About Me
- tweetybrrd
- I was born June 18th, 1961 on Father's Day to Earl & Martha Sibbald. Was raised in the township of Wainfleet where my parents still live in the house my father built. I have 1 younger brother. I graduated Port Colborne High School in 1978 and went on to Sheridan college where I studied animated cartooning. Do to major problem with my knees and many surgeries, I never completed my college education at Sheridan. I took piano lessons when I was younger and even won a Gold Medal in the Niagara Falls Kawanis Music Festival. I went on to learn how to play many instruments including, baritone sax, mandolin, acoustic and electric guitar, bass guitar and bit of the banjo. I went on the road with a band from Oshawa for 3 years, playing all over Ontario before moving back to Niagara, living in Welland and played bass guitar in a few local bands for about 15 years. I Love to draw & paint. I am self taught in crocheting and I love all kinds of crafty things to do.
