Weight Loss Moves - The Business of Losing Weight!

On top of having trouble losing weight, my business has been able to stay afloat in these crazy economic times, but I won't say I couldn't use more business. In fact, I'm not doing as well as I was last year and am sure I know why. I think if I set up a call center, I'd get better results from my marketing. The thing is that I need to add more websites to my business. If I do that, I'm absolutely certain things will go better.

There is lots to do with the websites I already have, but if I build another website and add it to my already nice forming list, the money will come in a little better. I have the products to sell. They are just not up yet, so I don't sell them. It's like losing weight. I just don't feel motivated enough. I know I have to do it and I plan on doing it, but planning and actually putting your plans into action are two different things. I'm sure you would agree. I have a good feeling about August though. It's going to go much better for me weight loss wise and business wise! I hope anyway.

Weight Loss Moves - Possums and Things!

I have so much to do today before I go on my trip that I feel that overwhelming sense that I should just sit and do nothing. If I could call one of those moving companies San Francisco style to pick up all of my junk and get me going without me having to lift a finger, I would. I have family coming to visit next week and all of my little house projects have been untouched except one.

I had been meaning to put a slab of green carpet down outside in my patio area and had that almost done yesterday when I opened my shed and low and behold there was a possum in there. It was the most disgusting experience I've had in a long time. It must have been there for a few days because, let me tell you, there was a smell and dookie all over the place. I don't know about you, but that's the that makes me want to stop doing everything I had planned on doing.

It took forever to clean that room out and it was not even one of the tasks on my list. Oh well...back to work!

Weight Loss Moves - Vacation Throwing me Way Off!

This past two months have been crazy in terms of my weight loss. I've gained a few pounds and don't know how to get off this spiral down the crazy road to obese. I heard that if you weigh 30 pounds over your ideal weight, you are considered obese, not overweight. I always thought you had to be way big to be considered obese, but apparently not. WOW! That was a scary fact to learn and a depressing one too.

I keep looking at pictures from a year, two years ago and think back to when I thought I needed to lose weight then. I was probably 20 pounds less than I am now. I did need to lose weight, but not as much as I do now. The other day, being that I was going on vacation, I went shopping for clothes and it was hard to see myself picking these big sizes. When did this happen?!

I shoppped till I dropped like if I was buying wholesale clothing and spent a lot of money, but was I happy with my selection? I was happy with the colors and the clothes were pretty enough, but the sizes were killing me! I wish I could just go back a year or two and stay that weight. I could, the wish could come true. I just have to make an effort. Well, I'm going on vacation this week and won't be back for a week or two, so once things get back into a routine, you will see more positive weight loss posts. I PROMISE!

Out of It - Depressed - Lose Weight Blog

I've been a little out of it lately, perhaps due to PMS or maybe just laziness, but I'm doing a bit better today and hope to behave where food is concerned. Yesterday, my husband took the day off and helped me with some of my websites by submitting our site to places that offer free web directory submission, and that lifted my spirits. I've had too much on my plate of late, so anything seemed to be bound to push me off the cliff so to speak.

You know, when we think about weight loss, especially if our scale seems to be showing us that we're going in the wrong direction, a shadow seems to fall over our day, at least that is the way it is with me. However, the sun is shining brighter today and I'm wearing green, so I'm feeling better. I hope you're doing o.k.
