It's over.

My hiatus is over... that is.

Oh hey! So, I haven't posted a damn thing in 3 months. I swear, I have my reasons. Let me just say this, I have gotten my shit together. Let me begin with the biggest reason...

I moved! I left the nest and moved in with this boy. His name is Ryan, he is my boyfriend/room mate and I have to say, I am having a blast. Living together has been nothing but fun and exiting. I adore our new apartment. I adore waking up next to him everyday. I adore cooking and trying out new recipes. I adore cleaning (I'm serious)! I adore the responsibility. I JUST LOVE IT! We were so ready for this step and we are so happy and exactly where we want to be. Ryan is literally a ray of sunshine. He makes me laugh all day and is such a positive person. He sees the good in everything. I'm happy because I think some of that fabulous and positive attitude has rubbed off on me. Getting to my next point...

I went through a pretty rough patch the last time I updated. I think part of that was the stress of our upcoming move. I worked really hard to bring myself back to normal and I am happy to say that I feel great, no more sad spells. Of course there will always be things that bring all of us down, but I think I have learned to deal with them a lot better! I am in a wonderful place.

I weigh 163. My weight fluctuated upward just a smidge right around the move. I was back up to 170 at one point. That was totally unacceptable and scared the shit out of me. I quickly lost it and I am back to my lowest weight ever. I am doing very well with my eating, same as usual. I am staying right around 1500-1600 calories a day. I have been trying out some really delicious healthy recipes that I will be posting soon. I am on a soup kick right now. I made low-fat cauliflower cheddar soup which was amazing and butternut squash soup which made me want to throw a party it was so tasty. I love cooking! I can't wait to share all the stuff I have made!

Moving forward I have a new schedule. After my work day is done I have discovered I am too exhausted to go to the gym, my only choice is to go before. Ryan has been doing so and he said he feels great so I might as well give it a whirl. So 3 days a week we will be dragging our sleepy butts to the gym at 5am. YAY!?... Also, I have an appointment Monday with a surgeon to look at my extra skin. I want to know my options when it comes to removing it. I don't know when I would have the surgery,  or if I will even end up getting it. I am just going to see what the deal is really. I will update on that soon enough.

Until next time... !
