Dropping the ball?

Shit. Hi everyone. Don't worry I didn't die, though at times I wanted to. This past little rut I have been in has sucked. I was competing in a competition with my family for weight loss. It was called the Game On! Diet. The competition is based on a book that my cousin was reading. More info can be found here http://www.thegameondiet.com/ It was a 4 week competition, and it was a blast because I was doing the whole thing with my family. After it ended, I fell off the deep end and into busy mode. I recently got a new job at a new location and it has been a challenge dealing with the change. I wasn't aware of how comfortable I was in my old job, and entering into a new environment with new people and personalities kind of got me down. I'M SORRY I have been absent. After I got a little settled in, I decided since I have kick ass benefits I would use them. I got an infected tooth surgically removed and had an implant placed in my jaw. I have included a photo to show you how it's done.. the only difference is that one of my molars was replaced with an implant. Basically they have to drill a hole into my jaw bone and put a screw in it.

This is the after photo. Notice the right side of my face and how gross it is

Talk about double chin. I didn't have any control over that. Anyway.. That was done on Tuesday, the photo taken on Wednesday. It is now Sunday and I am feeling better and no longer look like chunk from the movie Goonies.
I am now ready to get serious again and get this weight off forever!!! I have followed the directions of my co-pilot and visited http://bloggiesloseweight.blogspot.com/ Any of you reading should also visit that link and sign up!!!! It will be fun for all! and we will blog about our experience.

In the next two weeks I will be working out, and also packing up my apartment. The wife and I are moving into a HOUSE. No, I didn't buy a house. I don't really want to make that type of investment considering I do not want to live in Utah that long ever. For the next couple of years though.. we will be living in a house like grown ups, our dogs will have a yard to play in, and we will be much happier. I'll post pictures.

I AM SO SO SO SORRY I have been missing. It wont happen again, I promise. How is everyone else doing? Comment! Let me know!
