Fall is in the Air

Fall is in the Air. I love fall. With the exception of the ragweed pollen, fall is my favorite time of year. I love the cooler temperatures; I adore the fall colors; and I crave the fall food. That worries me a little. I LOVE all of these seasonal treats. Just today, I heard someone talking about a carrot cake Krispy Kreme doughnut! HELLO! It is calling my name. I'll just have to use my cheat days for these treats, and hope I don't make many blunders. I now sit at 38 lbs lost. I was hoping to be down by 40 by my doctor's appointment next week. Maybe if I get some more exercise in...I must find the time! Honestly, my job is something pretty new to me. Pish...I haven't worked outside my home in over 15 years...so this is an adjustment. I am hoping that eventually I will manage my time better. It is hard to plan interesting lessons and interesting, tasty meals for my family. I'll get the hang of  it though.
I have to admit that even though I have said I'm okay losing weight at this slower pace, I do get a little jealous when I see people say things like, "I've been at this for 3 months, and I've lost 30 lbs!" Geez! I have been at this since the end of February! I guess I need some encouragement. :)
Pressing on!
