Weigh to Go Wednesday - Maintaining my Sanity

It's weigh in day.  Nothing too exciting to share today.  I managed to maintain my weight - still sitting at 210.8lbs.  When I haven't worked out all week, I'm not surprised....kind of relieved, actually.  It's been a long week - and being able to maintain my weight is much better than seeing a gain.

It's rained for almost an entire week...I'm sick of it.  I'm down to only having 3 days left before race day - and I haven't ran since Monday before last - not good!!

I know, I'm starting to sound like a broken record.  Believe me, I don't like posting about the same ol' stuff - but I'm having writers block or something.  I know that my kindergarten placement is taking my mojo out of me.  I'm really enjoying myself - but man, am I tired every day.  I haven't had any time to really focus on myself or my weight loss.  I'm just counting the days down to graduation so that I can pick myself back up and really start getting back to it again.

Don't worry, I'm not giving up.  I'm still watching my food.  Yeah, I've slacked off big time when it comes to exercising - but I can't help it, I'm just too tired to go to the gym.

On top of being so tired all of the time, I'm also dealing with some personal problems at home.  Nothing major, nothing I'm going to bore you all with - but it's enough to be weighing on my mind...which is just adding to the stress and the fatigue.

Still no word from any principles about interviews.  Still not stressing about it.  I truly believe that my time will come. 

This weekend, I really plan on letting some stress go.  Not only will I have the Race for the Cure first thing Saturday morning, but I will be attending my first graduation party Saturday night.  That's right, I said first.  What, you thought there'd be only one?  Yeah, right!!  We've worked our tushes off (myself literally) for the past four years.  I think that deserves a whole month worth of celebrations...and that's exactly what I plan on doing. 

It's crazy to think that I only have 8 days left to work in the classrooms.  There's exactly 2 weeks and 2 days till graduation.  Not that I'm counting, right? LOL 

It has been such an amazing journey - one that I will have a hard time leaving.  I've grown to love the people I'm working with - and to know that this may be the end of working with them is very hard.  I have learned so much. 

Anywho, that's neither here nor there in regards to my weight loss journey - and that's what this blog is about, right?

Tomorrow, I'm going to post another guest blog post.  I will be sharing Nanci's story - and she can be found over at This Crazy Life of Mine

I have received several guest post from readers - and they all have great stories to share.  I chose Nanci's to post tomorrow because her story really burned my soul.  Reading her story made me take a hard look at all of the whining that I do around here, and realize how silly it all is.  I can't wait for you all to read it - and have a box of Kleenex's ready...cause I know I needed some after reading it.  She has an amazing story to share - and I know that you all will love it.

Till next time. ;)

    Hope you work your way through it soon!
