It's been a whilte

Well, it's been a while and for no reason other than I've been super busy and super unmotivated to write.

Just before giving up gluten (my last entry), I started a full time job. While I am so happy to be working again. It's taken me a while to break the bad habits I created while spending three months alone and job hunting.

It took me several weeks to pull myself off the couch after work. I was just exhausted from talking to people and staring at a computer all day. Since I've finally got my grove back, I've been working to shed some of the unwanted pounds that creep-ed on during the holiday baking season. Their not coming off in the way I would hope, but I have firmed up and am feeling a lot better about myself.

I've been working with an accountability partner (and now friend) to watch what I eat and how much I exercise. She's done a great job to keep me motivated to walk several times a week. She's also help me become more conscious of how much and what I eat. I'm keeping a daily food log and trying to cut out a large portion of processed food and unnatural ingredients.

I've been quilting some. My sewing machine died on me, but Alex's mom loaned me hers and it is amazing! Hopefully this weekend I'll have some time to do some actual quilting of a piece I've been working on for sometime now.

Until I have more to say!
