Started c25k today. Didn’t do too bad.
I did the math and I’ve lost 77lbs in 40 weeks which is an average of about 1.8 lbs per week since I started. Not bad.
I think I might be done with the hungries. Have had 9 glasses of water today so far.
Make that 12 glasses. I’ll lose this water weight if it kills me.

It’s getting old.

167.8 lbs this morning. Sloooowwwly but surely.
I have a 32 inch waistline. Awesome.
I don’t really have a whole lot to talk about today. We bought a bike trailer so that we can go riding as a family. There is a bike trail right behind our house. I’ve been really enjoying the time outside. Plus I try to keep my abs engaged the entire time LOL. My bike isn’t that great. It’s a $99 bike from walmart.
But you know what? It’s still a bike! It still gets my heart pumping.
I’m cleaning the house today to keep myself distracted so I won’t snack mindlessly. That was my downfall while I was on maternity leave. That’s how I gained back all the baby weight. That is not an incorrect sentence.
We’re going to the library today. I’m not sure what book I want to read next. Probably something a little less exhausting than “Even Cowgirls Get The Blues”. I had a lot of difficulty reading that book. There is a lot of digression from the heart of the plot through pathways of philisophical debates which are still relevant to the story but there is way too much of it! He could have easily elimated 50 pages and still achieved the same goal. I’m sure there are many who disagree. But I’ll agree to disagree with them.
Thinking of “Revolutionary Road”.
I also need better reading glasses.

I’m assuming you chicks usually know what it means when I haven’t updated in a few days.
I’m still a little ashamed at how quickly I threw my self control out the window last week.
I was looking through old photos today and I came across this photo from when my dad came to visit last year for James’ baptism. I’ve posted the baptism photos before but this photo made my jaw hit the floor. I made a little comparison thing in photoshop. Now I can look at it and remind myself of the amazing changes I’ve made in my life and that one week of bad behaviour won’t completely undo it.
I don’t know who that girl is on the left, any ideas?

I’m hailing a taxi cab. So I can jump in the backseat and scream “FOLLOW THAT WAGON!”
Me and the boy on Upper McKinney Falls
Family Photo
What can I say? we feed the boy a lot of sweet potatoes.
Daddy and Jamesicle!
Wheee!
The weather was perfect, PERFECT, for this trip.
Exploring Nature
Lots more pictures where these came from. Maybe tomorrow.

If falling off the wagon were an olympic sport, I’m pretty sure I’d have scored the following numbers from the judges.
France would have given me an 8.5
Canada would have given me a 9 (They always seem to be a little too impressed)
Japan would have given me a 6.5
The United States would have given me an 8
Oh well.
Pictures relatively soon.

The coffee worked like a charm.
DH was up all night with a stomach bug that’s been plaguing the staff at the highschool. He woke me at 4:30 to let me know he was driving out to the school to drop off his lesson plans and call in sick. That’s kind of a big deal for him. He went to work after we were in the ER all night (we literally went home when he would be waking up at 5) because he doesn’t like people who abuse their sick days. He’s sleeping it off right now. His fever is gone and he’s no longer sitting on the toilet with his head in the garbage can. So that’s good.
I have mixed feelings about the prospect of catching said bug. I really have to break this plateau.
I’m hoping he’ll still take me swimsuit shopping later. I’m just not gonna have another time to do it! I also need some shorts.
~~~~~
I am immensely amused at the irony.
I wrote in here this morning that I’m desperate to break this plateau. But I ordered myself a pizza for dinner.
let me rewind and explain.
after lunch and a midafternoon snack, I still had a whopping 1100 calories to eat. It was going to be dinner time and it was clear whatever I ate I would be eating by myself. I narrowed it down to ordering a med. pizza and making some homemade mac and cheese. I ultimately chose pizza because it meant a)I didn’t have to cook and b) I didn’t have to clean up. I ate exactly 1134 calories for dinner.
But you know, it might do me some good. Yesterday I only ate 750 calories. Ooops!
I didn’t get to go shopping. I’m aggravated. I want to win the lotto. My wardrobe is so pathetic right now.
If I behave myself the next five days (weekend, mon and tues on vacation) I should see the 160s soon… Please?!
my flickr 365 picture today was a picture of my back taken with the timer. I kind of like how it turned out after editing and stuff.
