Aaaaaand We're Are BACK!

Hello all,

It has been some time since I have written in here…too long. It has been maybe…two years now? A lot has happened since then…I finished my Massage Therapy certificate program at Seacoast Career Schools with a 3.9 GPA (High Honors), passed my Massage and Bodywork Licensing Exam (or MBLEx for short) with a score of 830, got a job at Massage Heights, and even got a promotion within 6 months of working there to the position of Team Leader (I oversee 6 people). I have loved and lost…made new friends, lost old…

All of which brings me to today, just going day-to-day doing pretty much the same thing…everyday. Unfortunately, this has heavily impacted my social life, but it is slowly on the mend.  I’m talking to more people than I have been, trying to hang out with some of these people, but because of the nasty snow that we have been getting recently, several plans have been put on hold. I’m ok with that…well not ok, but I know that I made the effort and I know the other parties involved are doing the same and we can just plan something else some other time.

I’ve been trying to wrack my mind for a decent “re-launching” of the blog, but have been unable to come up with anything good…other than a “what have I been up to,  type thing. I know it’s not exciting, but it lets everyone know what I have been up to. Who knows? Maybe you’ll learn something about me that you didn’t know before.  My goal for this year for the blog is to put out at LEAST one decent post a week, and have more than 10 active readers.  It’s a small goal, but I believe in baby steps to achieve results.

In other news, I’m gearing up for another Tough Mudder in June, and I am EXCITED! I had a blast at the last one I went to…and I’ll be going back to Maine in the Fall for another one! Two events in one year is awesome…some year, I hope to get a season pass and do like Eight in a year…so what does all of this mean? Weight loss and working out. I am slowly losing weight…though not as fast as I would like. At the beginning of the year I was back up to 230 lbs., and now I’m 218 lbs.  A decent drop…but now enough. I want to be under 210 lbs. by June. The biggest thing to help with that is a “proper” diet, which is my hardest area.

I LOVE FOOD. Plain and simple. I love eating…but unfortunately I need to rein in my desire to eat. It isn't conductive to my health and wellness plan. 

Well I think that this covers what I have been up to since August...I'll hopefully have a proper post by the end of the week.

Cheers
