Chasing away Chubby

The day dawned beautiful, though cloudy this morning.  It was the sort of clean, peaceful morning that makes you happy to be alive.  Too bad the rain is coming to ruin it. YUCK!

I took DD to dance and then actually got a few plants potted.  I still have 1 flower bed to plant and another one to plant sunflower seeds in and then I want to start one more around my storage building just so it will look a little better.  Then I treated the lawn with bug killer/ repellant to try to get rid of some of the ticks and fleas that are attacking my dogs and cats. Ticks are crazy bad this year.  Afterwards I took a shower to remove the poison form my body, and went to bed.  I woke up with a positive outlook.  Weight was 216.  However I didn’t hate myself this morning. I actually looked in the mirro and liked my highlights in my hair, nted my skin looked good (thanks to the Biore microderm abrasion I did in the shower last night), and that in tese clothes I don’t look so fat.  So I went to work happy to be me this morning. WOW!  That like- never happens!  Linda is right, to do this you have to be positive.  I know this.  When I was being successful at the weight loss thing I was extrememly positive.  I celebrated every victory, liked myself, paid attention to the positive changes in my body.  I have to get back to treating myself better if I want this weight to disappear.  Note to self: self esteem- find some!

Stopped to buy a sub sandwich and a salad at Wal-Mart and also picked up “What to expect when your expecting”, the journal that goes with it, and the 100,000 baby names book for my neice19. She went to the doc yesterday and he thinks she is between 6-7 weeks along.  Neice19 is DS4’s buddy.  Last night lying in bed he asked me…”When E has her baby will she still play with me.” “Yes” I told him. THen he said “She will still love me?” I said “Yes, She will always love you and play with you.  Now you will have a baby to play with too when it gets bigger. “ That seemed to satify him. He’s so sweet.  Kids gotta love ‘em.
