Progress Report

So you may have noticed  my little yoga girl making her slow journey across the top of my blog.  I'm kind of surprised at my progress.  I haven't been "clean" in my eating, mostly because, three weeks into the year, we have had two birthday parties, a couple of major NFL game parties, and a very busy work schedule that resulted in a couple fast food runs.  At the conclusion of each event, I tell myself, this is the last one.  It's time to get serious.  But then something else comes up.  I'm trying to find a balance.  Like, if we go to a party where pizza is served, I have one slice and avoid things like sausage as much as possible.  But I refuse to be the one in the corner, noshing from a bag of celery sticks I brought in my purse and trying not to smell the pizza across the room.  I've met those people.  They generally do not seem to be enjoying themselves.  Plus, I figure, this is real life.  It does not end when you reach the goal weight.  At least, I hope it doesn't end.  So there has to be a way to find the balance.  So far, the approach is working.
