Well I hit my 20 lb mark this week! I am sooo excited!! Im finally on track it seems. Only made it to the gym 3 days this week instead of my usual 4 but that was because I was on call last weekend. Couldn’t risk being called in when I was hot and stinky! LOL

Hope everyone here is having a good start to their weekend. Its going to be beautiful here today. Clear skies, warm temperatures! I drive right past the ocean on my way to Jenny. What could be better????

Have a great week everybody!!

Ive been kind of lax in writing here. Just find myself busy doing other things. I have been doing good. Going to the gym 4 days a week and sticking to JC faithfully. I did splurge last night when we went out to dinner but I will go to the gym today and refuse to beat myself up over it. Im down 15 lbs which is a good start.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend and have a great week!!

Was great!! I am down 11 lbs my first week! Guess that time at the gym is paying off.
Hope all my friends here are having a good Monday.
I go back to work tomorrow after recuping after my wrist surgery. I actually can’t wait.

So much has happened since my last entry here. I rejoined Jenny Craig yesterday so hopefully I will be back on track.
My son got booted out of Americorps and I have been working on getting him some emotional support through counseling. He has major anger management and self esteem issues and just couldn’t handle it there.
I also joined the gym cause my foot was just giving me fits when trying to walk. Ive been a couple of times and really like it.

So heres to a slimmer healthier me!!

Im finally back (I think). Got Pat off to Americorps and over my separation anxiety (again, I think) and finished up my job. I start my new job on Wednesday so I have a few days to myself. I thought I really need to get on track and lose this weight. I don’t know what my problem is. Anyway, I hope I can get it together. Im going to take one of the dogs out for a walk this morning after hubby and son #2 leave.

Need to drink my water and stay on track with the intake today!

My girlfriend is taking me on a tourbus next Saturday down to LA to see the play Wicked for my birthday. Im so looking forward to that!!

Have a great week everyone!

I don’t really know what happened but I ate badly yesterday. I dont know why I just did. Guess I have the will power of a gnat…..

Oh well todays another day, hopefully I will stay on track and start dropping some weight.
I did walk yesterday so I guess it wasn’t a total disaster.

I don’t remember quitting smoking last year to be this difficult

Jeffrey’s actual birthday was yesterday so be took him out to dinner, anywhere he wanted to go…… IHOP! LMAO Dontcha just love kids???

Well, I was good and ordered off the lo cal menu and stayed on track yesterday without fail. So Im pretty proud of myself for that!

Now I just have to finish getting my oldest son ready to leave for Maryland. He’s joined Americorps and leaves at the end of the month. He will be stationed in Maryland for 10 months.
I know it is going to be such a learning experience for him. I am going to miss him sooo much. Even as much as he has been getting on my nerves lately LOL. I will probably miss that too.

My next immediate challenge is my hubbys after xmas party this weekend. Catered affair but Im sure I should be able to eat healthy. Any great tips from anyone????

Have a great Tuesday!

So back to the grind tomorrow. I did ok for the most part this weekend. I did eat a few things I shouldn’t have but got right back on track. I refuse to beat myself up anymore. I did walk both days so that is really good!

Today when I took Whisper out for our walk, this crazy devil Pomeranian comes running out and proceeds to try and bite her on her legs and feet. She just looked at it like “What the hell???” Luckily the owner ran out and scooped the devil spawn dog up before she changed her mind and decided to eat it for a snack!

Hope everyone had a good weekend and has a good week!

Om my…so much to do today. My son, Jeffrey is having his 9th birthday party so I have to run around this morning to get ready for that.

We had a huge storm last night that blocked out our power for a few hours. Jeffrey was freaking out that there wouldn’t be any power for his party. LOL (Priorities right??? LOL) We had to eat at McDonalds but I got a grilled chicken salad so I thought it started out to be ok. Then we went over to my friends house who had power and I ate some of her homemade stew and bread (Im bad I know). I refuse to beat myself up over it though. Im up a pound but as long as I stay on track I’ll be ok. That means NO PIZZA at the party today!!! Oh God help me get through that one and NO CAKE!!!

Im screwed……..LMAO

Have a great Saturday everybody

Well, I am down 1 more pound! WOO HOO.
Now its back to the grind. I have been off work since Friday. And today I am giving my notice. They are not going to be happy but oh well. I have to do whats best for me and my family and Im not getting enough hours there to survive. Things are so tight right now and my baby is turning 9 this weekend. Trying to scrape enough together for his party. It is only short term. My new job offers a huge raise and sign on bonus!

HAve a great day everyone!
