Recommitting =)

[Ayria]

Argh, hey everyone ^^;;;
Back in the begining of July, I went and visited my parents and grandparents, the most stressful people in my life... Needless to say soon enough I fell off the wagon thanks to lemon cake and rocky road brownies and homemade yeast rolls... sigh... and I've been on a downward spiral since and I'm back up to 215ish >_<. I also broke up with my long time boyfriend shortly after my trip, quit my very physical job, and lived apart a few weeks with a girlfriend who was a vegetarian... only in the sense that all she ate was mashed potatoes and pasta!! I then came back, but not before the entire family was alienated from me =(. Being a stranger in your own home is never fun, so I've pretty much sat around the house and hid from the world. I am restarting this Friday though, and getting a membership at a Curves gym right around the block. I already have my shopping list ready, and I hope to get a digital cam for x-mas so I can take more pix =). Before I only used my job as my workout, and I know I'll do much better this time.
I can't wait, and I thank you all and everyone who's posted pictures and/or their stories for giving me the inspiration and strength to come back!
I'm ready to get my smile back!

((Ayria)) So sorry to hear of the difficult times this past year for you. I'm glad to see you're pulling yourself up by your bootstraps and making waves of change. Going home is never easy nor the same (speaking from past experience). Yea for gettin' to Curves!

Wishing you all the best on your journey!

Hang tough, girl

Hey Ayria! Big welcome back to you! Enjoy your stay

One thing I've found out, if you fall of the wagon...get right back on as quickly as you can. You'll do fine.
