We now resume our regularly scheduled programming. It's good to know all the prescription drug spammers have been keeping the place up in my absence.

Amazingly enough, I gained NO weight over the holidays. I also didn't lose any, but I'm contributing my maintenance to spending a week with my future in-laws, who have been low carb for several years. I might have actually lost... if I hadn't eaten popcorn at the movies or bought some junk food at the grocery store or had a Coke with every meal.

So, with the New Year come the Resolutions. I'm not going to say my resolution is to lose weight, because that's been my goal all along. But Jason and I made a pact with each other -- if he came down to the workout center every morning with me to work out, I would stop drinking Coke. I have 12 weeks to the wedding, and I'm going to get some of this weight off if it kills me.

Let's not say "kill." Let's say "maim." "Maim" is better.

So, with thoughts of dismemberment dancing through our heads... welcome back!
