I have not fallen off the face of the earth

I’ve just been working night & day for quarter close at work.  Four times a year, life shuts down for 2-3 weeks so we can get the financials together for investors.  It ain’t easy at a company the size of the one I work at.  We released earnings to the street yesterday afternoon, so now I can finally breath again and get back into the BuddySlim swing of things!

Those of you who know how obsessive I am about the scale - here’s proof of how much I’ve been working lately:  I haven’t even stepped on it in two weeks!!!  I was honestly just working all the time and coming home to sleep.  Miserable.  Glad it’s over!

Also, I’m in pre-TOM week so I’m going to skip stepping on that scale until that’s past.  Otherwise I’ll freak out that I gained weight during my workfest and be down on myself.  My clothes still fit fine and even though my schedule was wacky, I was eating mindfully so I think I should be ok.

I’ve already been to the gym this morning - I’m not missing my workouts for a single day longer than necessary!!  I did 45 minutes on the elliptical and about 20 minutes of upper-body strength training - arms, chest, back.  And of course my ab-crunches.  I’m planning to hit the gym tomorrow & Friday too, and hopefully get some sunshine this weekend that will let me go for some nice runs again.  I miss the fresh air!!

I promise I will catch up on blogs soon….and not be MIA like this again until next quarter-close. :-)

    It’s good to hear from you, although I am always sure that you’re doing just fine.  You’re a strong person and I know that you won’t let anything get in the way of your weightloss goal.

    Yes, you’ve been missed! But apparently, you were doing extremely well!!! You got past the time when your life is most stressfull, and you stood firm . But now that you’ve taken care of others, go take care of yourself. Right? All my best!
