Random note + W.L. update!

My random note:

I took Tony to the dog groomer this morning. He started smelling a little too much like a dog!  Anyway,  as I walked in my apartment, for the first time, I heard no chains jingling or tail thumping, or someone sitting there wondering why I haven't given him a Scooby Snack yet! Man, if I didn't have Tony, this deployment would be SO much harder!! Coming home everyday to an empty place would be beyond torture! I am so very thankful that I at least have my 4 legged furry companion! He knows when I'm sad, and he is a great listener! So, when things get hard these next 4.5 months, I'll at least have my Tony!

Okay, and my weight loss update!

At Golds, I signed up for a 12 week challenge.  Well, we reached the halfway mark, so we had to do a little check in! I would like to remind you, in these past 6 weeks, I went on a couple vacations, as well as my car accident. Well, during those past 6 weeks, I have lost 8 pounds! Sure, compared to what I HAVE been losing before this, it's a little slower. However, it's supposed to slow down. My body has been adjusting to this change!  The change of eating well, exercising on a higher scale, no longer drinking alcohol,  and just a general healthier lifestyle.

SO, 8 pounds, in 6 weeks, is just over a pound a week! (Duh!) I only have about 35 more pounds to go before I go sign my papers!! If I'm feeling hardcore, I may just go a little earlier. My goal is to go talk to the recruiters by Christmas, then take the tests in the New Year!

That, my dear friends, is my random note and update!
