More than a little mad

Well today was my weigh in at the office and I was down 2.6lbs but lost 5lbs of fat so I am very happy with that.
But as I started talking with the Dr. he told me that my office I go to each week will be closing and moving to a new location and not just down the street or two blocks or anything they are moving to pickering now that is way far from where they aare at now. My Dr. told me that I can go to the new office with him and I can change my weigh in to one time a month and just come on a saturday at the end of the month each month. But I was not very happy with that as i need the weigh in that is what helps me get through my hard times I always just say oh no I cant have that I have to weigh in two days from now or something like that and if I moved it to once a month that would just not be good for me. So my other options are to go to a new office that is closer to me one would be in Brampton or the other is in Thornhill now the Brampton office would be my best bet its only about a minute difference than the wilson office that is closing but my Dr.will not be going to that office. So my only option is to get a new Dr. I mean I am not about to drive 40-45min to get to an office and weigh in no way.
So my next weigh in will be my last at my old office and as of that I will have to find a new Dr. and that is going to be a hard thing or me I don't want to get some jerk or hard ass but I don't want to get a softy either. I feel so blah right now and kind of mad.
One good thing that is going to come of this is that the new office has a support group and I am going to attend this and see what it's all about, I have only ever gone to meetings when I was on Weight Watchers and I loved my meetings so maybe that will be how this turns out, I hope (*fingers crossed*)
Well thanks for listening

New Year new me

Ok so how many blogs and vlogs are going to start with those 4 words? Well for me this has never been more true. Although I started my journey at the end of last year I still have the most part of my weight to lose this year. By the end of 2011 I had already lost 40lbs, 31.8 of those lbs were lost since October when I started  the Dr. Poon so I think that's pretty good. Today was my first weigh in for 2012 and I lost 4lbs now there is a good and a bad the good is the scale now says 218.6 and that means I am now out of the 20's and I'm happy to see that, but my problem is I lost 5lbs of water weight and gained 2.8lbs of fat ??? What say that again? Man oh man that sucks but the Dr. was happy he said it's ok to gain over Christmas, I mean I was not thinking I was going to have any kind of loss for my first weigh in for the new year just because of Christmas and New Year but hey what can I say. So now I'm sitting here and I am thinking about my goals and my resolutions and this is what I have come up with I still have about 60-70 lbs that I want to lose so that is goal number #1 for my New Year new me I need to lose all of it by the end of the year. #2 I really really want to run a 5k I have started with a couch to 5k app on my iPhone and I really like it so again by the end of the year I want to be able to run a 5k. #3 for me is something I always strive to do but I just add it in every year I want to be the best mom and wife I can be and part of that will have to do with losing the weight so I can be here a lot longer for my 4 great kids and wonderful hubby.
Well cheers to the New Year and cheers to me.
Hope everyone had a great year and is heading in the right direction to have an even better New Year.
XOXO
