Happy Friday Everyone!

Good morning!  How is everyone doing this morning?  I know it’s probably not morning for some of you anymore.  :)  I’m doing okay.  Better than the last few days.  I’m keeping up with my diet for the most part.  I cheated a little last night and had a couple of reeses cups.  YIKES!  I know that’s not good.  I didn’t have lunch yesterday, and I was really busy around the house.  I also played the WII with the little boy I babysit twice a week.  I was exausted!  So I don’t feel to guilty.  I actually showed some progress on the scale this morning, but I’ll wait until tomorrow to weigh-in.  I weigh myself every morning.  How does everyone else do it?  I hear some say that’s not good to do, but them I’ve heard other things too.  For me it works really good, because if I see that I am making progress I get more excited about.  Or if I’m not, then I know I have to work a little harder.  As for my exercising, I haven’t gotten back on the treadmill yet.  I know that I really need to.  It’s an important part of the process.  Also, I am bottom heavy, so walking has really helped my rear end and my legs.  I’m sure that some of you know how it is.  I’ve always had thick legs, starting from my ankles.  I have come to realize that they will never go away, but I can make them look better. ;) 

By the way, do any of you have the WII game?  I don’t have it because it’s a little pricey, but I hope to get it someday.  If you don’t like exercising like myself, then it would be great to have.  The boxing really gave me a workout.  I hope all of you had a great day yesterday and I hope you have a wonderful weekend.  I’ll try to post something tomorrow or at least my weight.  Good luck and well wishes!

Good morning!

How is everyone doing this morning?  I’m doing okay on my dieting.  I can’t say much for anything else.  I had a very bad day yesterday.  I was really stressed out.  I just wanted to sit down and eat, cry and everything else that comes with it.  Nothing to serious, just some finanacial problems.  I made a mistake on our checkbook ledger and $400 in OD fees later…. my husband was furious.  I’ve never done that before, so I was pretty upset at myself.  I just haven’t been myself lately.  I’m not sure why.  I sure could use a vacation!  I know this will pass just like everything else.  One day at a time.  I didn’t start on the treadmill like I said I was going to.  My husband has three days off this week.  It kind of throws me for a loop when he’s home.  I did the mistake of moving the treadmill into our bedroom.  I didn’t want to get on it and wake him up.  That’s no excuse though.  I could get up and go walking in the morning.  It would do my mind some good to get some fresh air.  I’m down 4 pounds from two days ago.  I’m not sure how that happens.  Seems like to much  weight to lose in two days.  I sure am glad to be back under the 180 mark.  I worked so hard to get to that point.  Well, I better get my day started.  Just thought I would post a little something.  I hope everyone is doing good.  Hang in there!  We can do it!  Have a happy humpday!

Here I go again!

I’m so mad at myself.  A little over a week ago I was weighing 176.  The lowest I’ve been since I started.  I only had 26 more pounds to go to reach my goal.  :(   It was just to hard to keep the diet going over the Thanksgiving Holiday.  I had all of my family here for the first time ever.  I was so excited and stressed at the same time.  I also made the mistake of baking zucchini bread.  It came out so good.  It’s all gone now.  Thanks goodness!  Thanksgiving has always been my most favorite holiday, so Christmas should be a breeze.  I don’t do much cooking or baking.  It’s always a drive home one night stay trip.  So it will go by really quick.  I hope everyone did well over the holiday and good luck on the new week.  I had gotten back on my treadmill last week and was doing good, so it’s shouldn’t be to hard for me to start again.  I will start tomorrow on that.  I’m taking it one day at a time.  Have a great week!

I’m back on track now.

Hello.  I haven’t been on in awhile.  I was off my diet and just couldn’t get motivated to exercise.  I managed to gain 4 pounds in the process.  I started my diet up again almost 2 weeks ago and 3 days ago I got back on my treadmill.  I’m feeling pretty good about it.  I hope I can keep it up for the next few days.  At least until after Thanksgiving.  One things for sure, I have a houseful of company coming, so I won’t be sitting on my behind for two or three days. :)  Wish me luck!
