Attack of the blubber!

So I went to my GP and he told me that it could take MONTHS to hear from the PS! Ok...ok...that's a lot of wait!  But I have decided it's ok.  Cause it will give me LOTS of time to lose the weight I wanted to!  So...here is the deal.  I am going to go strong as soon as the kids are in school for their full scheduled times.  So, that begins September 17th!  That's D-day!  I will start back up on running, and watching what I eat! I know I won't be perfect, but I'll give it my best shot!  I only get one shot at this so I need to make it my BEST!  So, until that day, I will be happy, funny, eating what I like Rachel...after...comes cranky, tired, restricted Rachel.  But it will get better!  I will get better and all I can do is hope for the best!  Losing weight is hard for me.  I am an emotional eater!  When I am sad...I eat..happy..I eat...mad..I eat!  I celebrate with food, I reward with food and I self soothe with food.  I need to learn something new, something else, and no...not shopping cause we'll go broke!  Any suggestions would be fantastic! Haha!

So here is my game plan.  Julie (my daughter) goes to preschool Monday, Wednesday and Friday for 2 1/2 hours in the morning and Joe (my son) goes to full time kindergarten.  That'll give me 2 1/2 hours 3 days a week to go hard at the track/gym and eat right the rest of the week.  I will be using the free online site www.sparkpeople.com because it tracks my food as well as my exercise and balances it and everything!  I really enjoy it!  I have endomondo on my phone to track my distance and speed for my running.  I believe these things together should help me tremendously!  But I will keep you posted on that front!  I would like to be in (one)derland before I see the PS!  Ok...good luck...may the spark be with me!! ;D
