Starts tomorrow.
I'm officially back to work. No vacation to look forward to for quite a while. Back to the grind. Back to the gym. And back to the grocery store for the usual healthy fare.
I have YET to step on the scale since that post I made earlier last month. It's an accomplishment. Although at the same time, it's also denial about excessive celebration and consumption over the past two weeks. I'm gonna guess I'm up 5 pounds. Big deal. I'm not stressing over it. THAT is the real accomplishment.
I do have this thing called a wedding right around the corner that is going to give me a kick in the arse to get back on track. I'm not so concerned about losing weight for it though. I just want a taut tummy and nice arms to compliment a beautiful sleeveless dress. My plan is to concentrate on those areas with weights and pilates and continue the cardio to burn off any extra calories I consume on the weekends.
I've been reading so many posts about resolutions that I feel I must make mention of my own here. They have NOTHING to do with weight. And I don't feel like making a resolution about working out or being healthy because that is a constant goal for me. My new resolution this year is to learn to knit. I wanna make scarves and hats...and in a couple of years...baby clothes! :)
Hope that all of you are keeping up with your resolutions so far.

who's birdie?
Birdie is just an old nickname I had back when my hair was super short. Most people around here know me as Adora. But my friends who really know me call me Mandy. Confused yet?
Yeah, I should probably suffer from multiple personality disorder.
This is the place where I've documented my journey to being healthy. I have struggled with being healthy my entire life. I adopted poor eating habits I learned from my family and their inactive lifestye. After reaching an all time high of 205 pounds, I decided to change things for good. For a long time I focused soley on the numbers. I lost 50 pounds in a two year period. I'm at a comfortable place now and I've chosen to give up chasing an elusive scale related goal and instead focus on my eating habits and fitness. Here are my stories, my struggles, my advice and my opinions. I hope that you'll find something here that motivates you to be healthy too!

I've been reading lots of posts about resolutions/goals this week, but I have to admit, this is the first time I've seen "learn to knit!" Good luck!
