I just wanted to pop in and share good news: according to my weigh in this morning, there was no weight gain on my vacation! Woo-hoo!
Today, I hit it hot and heavy again with being on point and exercising. I’ve lost 3.4, I think, and my short term goal was to have 5-10 pounds gone [...]

We’re back from Gatlinburg. We had such a great time.  A lot of the time was spent just being lazy and being together. We enjoyed ourselves a lot but it was also good to get back home; especially since the bed there was hurting hubby’s back: it was hard as a rock! As a matter [...]

Yeah: we got snow here in Gatlinburg, TN on Sunday and Monday. It’s still hanging around some and I love it. It’s so beautiful. The time share where we’re staying has a creek right behind it and trees and woods all arond it and the snow glistening on it is so beautiful! My winter is [...]

I am so looking forward to a week of downtime with my hubby! I can hardly wait for tomorrow to get here. We are going to Gatlinburg for a week; just the two of us. We need the time; the holidays were so busy with getting daughter ready to leave and friends and family stopping [...]

I have a few things I want to write about but I’m on my way out the door for work. For now, I’ll just answer a question that some people had for me: my blood pressure was 130/70 and my doctor called it “perfect”. Yeah.
Gotta run; have a great day; more later.

Woo-hoo! I weighed in today and I’m down 3.4 pounds from last week! Yes! I’m so pleased. I feel like I’m on the right track this time; the track that leads to permanent weight loss. This was just the perfect ending to a great weekend.
I got an address for my daughter yesterday. I am as [...]

I dragged my butt and the rest of me out of bed to exercise this morning! Yeah. I did 30 minutes on the elliptical. My goal for the next 4-6 weeks is to exercise thre times a week for at least 30 minutes. My first short term goal is to lose 5-10 lbs before going [...]

and mom is doing okay! Still no EES (emotional eating syndrome) and I have great peace about the choice that Karen made. I’m definitely going to miss her! But this is what’s supposed to happen; they’re supposed to grow up and live their own lives. Keep her in your prayers and thoughts, please. I’ll try [...]

Six hours before I turn my daughter over to the Navy and no EES here! (EES-emotional eating syndrome  ).
Good thing I know she won’t really be in the Navy’s hands at all; she’ll be in the same hands she’s been in all her life: Gods!

The Christmas season is over and the New Year has begun. We had a great Christmas with all my sibs and my dad at my brother’s house 12/26 &12/27. We’ve been extremely busy though, not only because of the holiday season but because my oldest daugther is leaving soon for the Navy. When I say [...]
