Chal-lunge!

While I was tittering around a couple of weeks ago, my 16-year old son asked me "What's going on with Shaky Bliss?"
I just shrugged my shoulders and replied, "Ion'tknow."
This middle-aged man in a teenager's body then says to me, "Well, you need to get back on it and then maybe you will remember why you started it in the first place." Then he went on about his business.

So...as I laid in bed this morning pondering where my life is going from this point, (which is something I've been doing a whole lot lately) it occurred to me that I haven't been on the treadmill in two weeks. I'm back to eating cookies, cakes and candy again..AND I am only 4 dress sizes away from my goal size. Also, wasn't I the one going on about how I am going to be foxy by 40? What happened to that?

Oh..I decided to measure my weight loss by inches lost instead of pounds lost because the scale is the devil incarnate..but I digress.

With that being said, I decided to clear off the purses and other things that belong in my closet off the Total Gym and put myself on a 30-day Total Gym challenge. Starting to-day!

So..here's a beginning picture. (excuse the lack of color coordination in my outfit and clutter in the background..I'm also going through a "get rid of my inner Hoarder" stage during my self-imposed mid-life crisis as well)
