Well, it has been a long time since I have blogged. I just noticed the last entry was back in November. Christmas was great, Mia got everything a girl could want. I didn't go crazy and pig out at all the parties, which was great. I actually lost 4 lbs the week of Christmas! Shocking! The next week wasn't as great. Spending an entire week off work and being home all the time made it harder to stay focused and on track. When I am at work, I have my routine. I have my breakfast and lunch packed and ready to go. When I am at home, there are too many other things I could eat, so it is a little more difficult for me. I'm still on track and I am still losing weight every week. I have been really pleased with this past weeks results. I lost 2.8lbs and I still got to eat a lot of things I don't normally eat on a regular. My total weight loss to this point is 45.8lbs gone forever!!!! Very exciting. I am at a weight I haven't been at for I don't know how many years. SO it was a great week. I am participating in a Biggest Loser Challenge at work. It's a 10 week challenge. I plan on winning at my school. There are about 15 of us competing. This is a district wide challenge, the school with the highest percentage lost gets some money for the school. So we shall see. I don't know how anyone else is doing, they haven't said if they have had a loss yet. I told some of the girls about my great loss, but I don't want to rub it in or make anyone feel bad, so I may not tell them every week. So today is Feb 1st and I am at home because we are having a snow day. It is supposed to be a terrible blizzard coming. We have been getting sleet and ice all night and day, it hasn't stopped yet. It looks terrible out there. Most likely we won't have school tomorrow either. Snow is on its way next, possibly up to a foot.
Here are some more recent pictures of Mia and Me.

Mia's cool new bike!
My budding artist. She loves to color.
Her first snow day. She didn't want to go inside.
She loved playing in the snow.
