Weigh-in Wednesday

Why is it always so hard for me to get back into the swing of life once the holidays are over? For some reason I get into a crazy funk every January, where anxiety and depression seem to set in deeper than usual. Maybe it is those 25 pounds you've (I) gained over the last 3 months. That you (I) now realize is going to take the majority of the year to take off.(I have been watching the biggest loser and got the new WW magazine though, i'm pumped to lose this weight!) Who knows, but I have decided in lieu of the new year to start a new weekly post called " Weigh-in Wednesday" which hopefully will help me get back into a regimen of diet and exersize. I just want to be a healthy normal weight, I hate feeling tired all the time. Luckily for now I have my husband on board and we are going to do it together. We had our first weigh in today, and lets just say it was frightening!! Hopefully next week will be better, and my spirit will be up a little higher. I am also going to start attending weekly weight watchers meetings and sign up for online tools.
On to another note: My heater has been on the fritz! (again) We thought that the maintenance guy had fixed it, but the last two nights the heater has not worked! Which has equated to some pretty horrid nights, full of frozen toes and teeth chattering. Every time my dogs are out of there cages they are either cuddle up in their blankets or sitting next to the space heater. 
 I swear this morning when I woke up I could see my breath. SIDE NOTE:(have you ever gone through a drive thru and go to roll down the window, only to realize that it is frozen shut??? SO MORTIFYING! Seriously I just drive away! Maybe it is gods way of telling me to lay of the fatty foods?) Anyways, I have been spending most of my days lately sitting by the space heater with my dogs and crocheting. I finished another hat today! This one actually fit, and it looks less like a chef's hat, woohoo!
 I hope everyone is staying warm in these freezing temperatures. Have a great night :)

Hey girl! Ack I know what you mean about being down in the dumps once January rolls around. I blame it all on this chilly chilly weather. :)

Weigh-In Wednesday is such a great idea. I can't wait to see your results. Good luck to you and your husband! YOU CAN DO IT!

Hey!! I just have a few things to say! First off, I was reading your blog when I was at my mom's house the other day and my sister walked in and it was on a post that was talking all about your cute etsy stuff. She completely fell in love!! Haha. Second, I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE that hat you made! It looks so freaking cute! That is the style that I WANT, but I just can't pull off. You wear it very well. And lastly, I don't know what you're complaining about your weight for. I saw you and your mom at Cafe Rio yesterday and you looked so dang cute (even in your scrubs). You are your hardest critic! But just know that I, along with everyone else, thinks you are drop dead beautiful! :) Welp, that's all for now! Keep blogging because I love reading your posts!
