I am overweight! It is a strange thing to be happy about, but anyone who has been obese knows how this feels. I do not put s whole lot of faith into the BMI scale, but it is still nice to not have that label hanging over me.
I actually hit this milestone on September 4, but I have been seriously busy lately. We are in the middle of our adoption homestudy. So much stress! My individual interview is tonight. After that we are supposed to have one more meeting with the social worker and then we can start working on matching with children. We are hoping to have kids in the house by Halloween or Thanksgiving.
I have also been somewhat of a slacker with my P90X because of things to get done with the homestudy, but I've not given up entirely. I've also started getting ready for a 5K mudrun that I plan to be in on October 29.
Today's weight is 162!

Life
Weight Loss - My weight loss has slowed down to pretty much a halt. There is a bit of me not trying hard enough, but I also have a doctor's appointment because I have spent more time in the last few months trying than not trying, but I'm still not losing. I have decided to take my body bugg off for at least a few days and just not think about it. I don't mean to go completely crazy and go back to my old eating ways, but I need a break from such extreme focus.
The rest of life - I have found a new church. I like it. The pastor wears jeans, and that is awesome. It's a very friendly place and has a great children's program which is important because of the next new thing. Hubby and I have started the process of adopting. We are going through the county to adopt a foster child/children. I am honestly hoping for a sibling set of 2-3 kids. We are undecided so far about exactly what we are going to tell them about ages. We have considered telling them 0-5 and we have also considered telling them up to 10 or that up to 10 would be good in a sibling set with younger kids. We are currently in the process of prepping the house. That means lots of sorting and clearing things out. It also means we need to rehome some cats. I think that 5 cats is too many anyhow, but if you add kids to it then that's definitely well above too many.
