34?!?
There are 34 students on my roster. Yes, 34. We had meet the teacher night yesterday and 23 of them showed. That's the most I've ever had show up. I won't know what my exact numbers are until tomorrow, since that's the first day of school! In the meanwhile, I have to sequester 10 more desks and find space for them in my classroom. Yes, last year I only had 24 kids, so I only have 24 desks in my room. Fingers crossed something gives and my number stays under 30 this year. WHEW!
In other news, the cat woke me up at 4:30 this morning. I could have gone back to sleep, but I hauled my booty out of bed and went for a bike ride. My everything is still sore from doing circuit training on Saturday. I was tempted not to do anything today, but I figured I'd better. Go me.

Hmmm
I may be plateauing.
It's all good. I knew it would happen. I'm focusing on incorporating more exercise and less of an emphasis on watching every.single.thing that goes into my mouth. I joined a gym that's on my way home. I stopped in on Friday and did circuit training and some free weight work. I've been waking up well before the sun is even up to get in a 45 minute bike ride. I feel amazing. It's hard to not let what the scale is saying be frustrating. I've got to focus on how I feel and the changes I've made, though. Four months ago if you would have told me I'd be working out regularly and not craving cake all day, I would have laughed at you.

An update
Dear goodness this is a busy time of year! I'm loving being back at work.... seeing everyone, having the routine, the excitement! It's wonderful!
On the weight loss front I'm doing alright too. I've been waking up SUPER early to ride my bike before going in, and it feels amazing! I also joined a gym that I pass on my way home, so I'll have no excuses! I'm going in to work tomorrow to do some prep and room clean up, and I plan to stop by in the afternoon on my way home.

Yes!
I didn't think I could do it, but I did!
I rolled my butt out of bed at 5 AM today and rode my bike for 45 minutes! It equates to about five miles!
I feel really good about this, and now I have a full day of work ahead of me. We'll see how that goes.
