I decided a couple days ago that since I don't have a real job anymore, that I would now have to think of losing weight as a 'job'. Sometimes it's boring and difficult, but ultimately, it's rewarding.

I've also found someone to go swimming with on Mondays and Fridays at the pool at the Club that we have access to here. She used to be a synchronized swimmer, so she knows a bunch of techniques for really losing weight in your mid-section (tummy, bum and thighs) which is what I want. Then on Wednesdays I'm going to have a go at the elliptical machine for 4o minutes.

I love food too much to give any of it up, so I'll have to go the exercise route. That, and no carbs at night. That's a pretty simple change to make and I think it makes a difference.

Still thinking of going home, but no decision yet.
