So, I'm a lousy blogger and easily distractible. I took a seven week hiatus from posting. I even made it my New Year's Resolution to get back to updating this thing, but here it is the last day of January and I'm only just getting to it. I apologize, I'm a slacker.

I guess I haven't been updating because my Sundays have been kind of bipolar lately - either I'm doing something fantastic, like driving to Dallas or running around Edmond with my friends, or I'm stuck inside on my own and in a bummer sort of mood. I am going to do my damnedest to get back on track, though, for my own benefit and to ease the minds of my more dedicated readers *coughmomanddadcough*.

And pardon the campy picture ... I finally figured out how to get my laptop to take a picture on a timer, rather than as soon as I click the button, so I got a little silly posing and ended up really liking this one. Shows the change in my waistline, for sure. And the real beauty is that the shirt I'm wearing, my ski shirt, barely fit me last spring break, and now it's remarkably comfortable. I've been wearing it all weekend due to the snow and ice Norman's been inundated with.

So far as workouts and food, I don't have too much to report. It's been much of the same really, although my schedule definitely leaves my mornings free for me to do just about whatever suits me. I haven't quite adapted enough to it to really make the most of it. Kickstep is still the highlight of my workout routine, although I had to pick up a new suit since my old one was a few solid kicks away from falling to pieces. Food is still very much the same, although I've been alternating between busy and sick so much this month that it's been more about quick and efficient meals - lots of soup and sandwiches.

Thankfully it hasn't hindered me too much - I'm still trending downward, although not at a very viable rate. Hopefully I'll be able to reorient myself to this new schedule and really make some progress these next few months. I feel really good about where I am, but I know more progress will only make me feel better.

Thanks for bearing with me through my lengthy absence, guys; hopefully you'll hear from me next week!
