Home Sweet Home!!!

So, back in PA.   The flight home was uneventful -- but I got some pretty pics leaving LA.

I still hadn't seen a grey whale yet and they were supposed to be migrating so my nose was pressed to the window looking one last time!!

 And I guess the rain and yucky weather had to follow me :)  Anywho -- I'm glad to back and from what I can tell, so is my cat.  She won't leave me alone!!  I actually couldn't sleep last night because she was purring so loud!! 

And there's the three hour time difference -- that may have played a role in it! 


I probably won't post every day, but I would still like to occasionally post when I've learned something or when I'm experiencing a challenge in this journey.   So if you'd like to continue to follow, just sign up to follow by email and every time I post, you'll get an email. 


So today was a good day.  After finally falling asleep at 3 am, when my alarm woke me up at 6:30 in order to go to the gym, yeah . . . I hit snooze.  And then I reset it.  There was no way I was going to the gym on 3 hours of sleep.  So, needless to say workout today did not happen. But that's okay.  It's probably best to give my body some more rest.  I will definitely make it tomorrow.  BUT . . I did really well with food today.  I was able to withstand temptation several times (although when I got stressed at work and felt overwhelmed it took EVERYTHING I had to not go into the kitchen and look for a snack -- but I didn't!) and I even ate pretty healthy.  I know I didn't have a 1200 calorie diet, but more like 1600 which is pretty reasonable considering.  And according to my polar watch, I've burned 2300 calories already so I've got 700 in the bank already towards weight loss.  I can live with that :)


I did treat myself one more time and went and got my hair done this morning before going into work . . .

So, day #1 post BLR was a success in my book!!  I'll keep you posted as the weeks go by!!!
