Day 1...

I know it's September 2nd, but it's the kids' first real week of school and my first real week of freedom. Today is day ONE. I just got back from the salon - I have a new haircut and no more grays; I am feeling good. I am journaling my food again and planning meals. I am not going to eat any of the two half gallons of ice cream that my husband bought "for the kids". I will get on the scale tomorrow morning (yes, whimp), and I will post my weight and I may even get the courage to post some pictures. I will have a loss this month!!!!

I honestly went to the triathlon site this morning to sign up , only to find that the event sold out. I called to volunteer and will offer to run with my sister. I may even bike to the site to make sure to get my exercise in. My daughter's condition has stabilized somewhat and I am more able now to focus on myself once again. I need to get back on the wagon. I am signed up for a 10K the first week of October. That will be my focus for the month.
