14 month mark

It has been 14 months since i began my fight against the 100+ lbs ...

I reached -60lbs by december and then i went on a wonderful trip to Russia where i drank and i ate to my hearts content...for 3 months! I was working out about 2xs per week and regular walks daily. I gained 6lbs but that is a miracle considering how much alcohol i consumed (daily) and then during my first week back i gained 4lbs!
I was upset with myself initially but then i realized that i had given my body a chance to catch up and really adjust to -50lbs and that could only mean good things for my skin and letting my body adjust to a lighter me. It was also a good test of my new habits.
Every day i thoughts about exercising, even if i did not have time to exercise then i made sure i walked alot, i was mindful of my portions and not over indulging, especially on days that i did not exercise. My conclusion was that i had developed better habits but i was still not where i needed to be to continue to lose weight on my own or to maintain an ideal weight on my own.

and so i am at a halfway point...but the next 50 are not as impossible and the mountain in front of me does not seem as daunting as the one that was in front of me last spring.
