HASAY UPDATE!
As you can imagine, the last week has not been the most optimum atmosphere for losing (or even maintaining) weight. I haven’t been upstairs to get on the scale yet, but I will later and I will update at the bottom of my post.
All the Christmas cookies and goodies are gone. I gave most of it away as additional gifts to my family. Get it out o
f my house is all I could think about! Of course, now I could really go for a piece of fudge or a sugar cookie with nice sweet icing….. Bad thoughts! Bad thoughts! We’ve got a few dark chocolate hershey kisses left from the stockings. I will have to go get a couple of those to keep my craving at bay. Santa was very good this year and only brought an apple, nuts, some hershey kisses and M&Ms this Christmas. So, that, along with all the cookies being given away, has hopefully helped my waist from gaining 3 more inches!
Losing weight is one of my New Years resolutions, and I will further address those in my post tomorrow or Wednesday. I need to get on track and need to do it now. My classes start again on the 12th and I need things organized 
and going smoothly by then. I’m taking Java programming, Business Statistics, and Intermediate and Advanced Spreadsheets. I know the classes will be tough, I’m just hoping that they won’t be stressful like the one course I took last year. We all know what happens when stress rears its ugly head!
Some of you may be wondering why I didn’t post yesterday. I received the whole Twilight series of books from hubby’s uncle (beautiful hardcover set) and let’s just say I’m halfway through the second book already! I hate putting down a good book. It’s the equivalent of pushing stop on a really good movie halfway through and not watching the rest of the movie until later! Ggggrrr! I’m not sure how I put the book down long enough to blog about it! LL. There’s a lot to do around the house today, and I’m going to TRY to stay away from the books! After I’m done reading them I will write my opinions on them, so you can decide if you would like to buy them, or better yet, take them out at the library.
Congrats on banishing the sweet goodies, it’s a start. I would have probably polished them all off before seeing them out the door, one last big junk food hurrah. Good luck getting back on the HASAY wagon, I’m struggling myself but it’s a minor setback. I agree with you about putting down a good book, I’ve given myself migraines from my refusal to set one down.
