Marching On

It's been two months now since my 2013 resolutions. I have to remember to keep my head up, shoulders back, and my eyes ahead, because the future is bright. I can make it bright if I keep on keeping on. Lets see how well I did in February.

1. My weight loss goal. I started slacking off when it came down to exericising eveyday. I blame it on boredom. But perhaps I've found something to counteract my slacking ways. I joined a website called Calorie Count. It helps you figure out what your daily intake is as well as what nutrients you're missing. Today was actually my last day of my fourth week. I've done pretty well with the goal the site has set for me of 1400 calories a day. Now on to the results portion of our recap. When I started out my weight was : 146.8 lbs. I was also weighing myself in the evening instead of the morning shame on me. A situation I remedied about halfway through. My End weight was:  144.8 lbs. My highest weight over the month was 147.5 lbs and my lowest weight was 144.2 lbs. You'll recall that my starting weight in December was also 146.8 lbs. Boo there. But my highest weight last month was 148.6 so almost a pound difference in between those two highs. My lowest weight last month was 144.4 lbs not much of a difference there. I think it would be fair to say that I've lost 1lb this month though my start and end weights would say two.  As far as waist measurements  Start: 28.6   End: 27.6    High: 28.9    Low: 27.1   Again I think its fair to say I lost about 1 inch off my waistline. Which brings me down to a total of 3 inches since I started. So even though I'm not taking off the weight I am taking off inches and that has to be a good thing.
2. 50 Books in a year: In February I read and reviewed 4 novels. That brings my total book count for this year up to 6 novels and 1 short story. I'm pretty much right on track :)
3. Dark Divinity:  Finally a change on this front!!! Whoohoo. Okay a small change but its better than nothing. For the month of February I wrote 6 1/2 pages. The last time I wrote before this was June and that was a measly two pages. So big improvement there. Yay me.
4. Fairytree: In February I had one session. But it has been brutally cold and I expect things to start picking up soon. I've had several nibbles on some March dates and May is already looking to be a very busy month. Also on the photography front I've invested in new lighting and background stand kits. I'm anxious to take these pretty babies out on their first test drive this weekend at Bunny Day.
5. Kitchen remodel: We got in our new monstrous fridge, okay maybe not monstrous but it feels that way in comparison to the twenty year old leaky thing we had before. We also went and picked up the table my great grandfather made for nana. We still have to get a protective glass top, chairs and a bench for it and then the new lighting fixture and this project will be done.

That's it for now. I'm still soldiering on. Still making progress if only at a snail's pace, but its one determined snail.
How are you guys holding up on those resolutions? Haven't forgotten them yet, right?
