Little by little…
I’m not doing very well at updating every day like I had intended. NaBloPoMo is a site where you vow to write in your blog every day for a month. It started in November…forget which year. But it stands for National Blog Posting Month. I am going to try in November to write something every day.
I am still tracking everything on SparkPeople. Today is my weigh-in day but I usually do it in the nude right before my shower and I forgot this morning so I’ll do it tomorrow. It’s the only way I know of to get a correct and consistent reading. Too bad I can’t weigh in nekkid at my doctor’s office.
I have so many changes I need to make but I am concentrating on just a few at a time. Hopefully, by this time next year, when I am near my goal weight I will have developed great habits that will last me the rest of my life.

You know it could be therapeutic to write every day for a month here, but I’m sure I’d get sidetracked by something along the way…
Looking forward to reading your posts every single day in November! LOL!
Good for you for changing just a few things at a time. We both know that changing everything at once just doesn’t work.
@Dippity - The few times I’ve done it have been therapeutic for me. But some days it’s just really difficult to come up with something to blog about. I think Tyche has it licked though by posting pictures on her “nothing to blog about” days.
@ItsSuze - So far the only thing I’ve changed recently is trying to make sure I shoot insulin before every meal and logging everything I am eating – it really has a nice unexpected side benefit – If I don’t want to write something down, I don’t eat it. And sometimes I won’t eat something just because I know I’ll have to write it down. Long term changes have been making sure I take my meds every day, twice a day, and avoiding really high-sugar meals – like smoothies for breakfast (except for the kind Pam makes) or Belgian Waffles with whipped cream. I haven’t had either in several years.
I usually weigh myself while wearing something lightweight – like cotton pajamas (most of the time). I try to wear something lightweight when I go to the doctor’s and suspect I’ll get weighed – and of course I always remember to take my shoes off. We all know they must weigh five pounds
@Tyche - LOL I used to take my shoes off at the doctor’s office, but when I’m wearing lace-ups, it’s too much trouble so I don’t bother at all now.
