This week has been extremely emotional and just plain hellish.  February 1st started it all with an emergency trip to the vet with DDs barely 3 month old guinea pig…we had only had him a month.  It turned out to be bacterial pneumonia which we could do nothing for…he had progressed so quickly to the [...]

So we went to see Nickelback last weekend!  I am thrilled and disappointed all at the same time.  Now I am thrilled because we got out of town, went to a concert, stayed in a hotel, did some shopping, and saw a movie.  Disappointed because Chad’s voice simply didn’t sound as good as he did [...]

Well, aside from probably a few too many chocolate nibbles but I will handle that.  Time got away from us last night and dinner was more like a grab what you can find type of thing.  A couple of fresh spring rolls, some chocolate nibbles (I know…) and some trailmix…a couple of Kashi crackers for [...]

I am still working on this!  I have been extremely busy with my dogwalking and my first COLLEGE CLASS! :)  Yeah, that is fun to say!  I have had lots of work, lots of medical appts, lots of chauffeur duty…just lots of everything.  I have been dealing with “women issues”  I think that has a [...]

I haven’t been accomplishing much other than losing control since I have been away…but I am not worrying about that…  I am also not worrying about the scale upstairs that is just waiting for me to step on it and suck all the hope out of my day.  In fact…I’m not going to get on [...]

I slipped back into my sugar zone…it was really sneaky…it starts with the “justas”  justa bite of this white flour thing, just a small cookie here, just an ice cream there and pretty soon..it is 3 cookies, 4 cookies, more diet soda (which always makes me want more sweet stuff)  We were away at a [...]

To the weigh in…165.5.  Yup.  Up a pound, could have been worse considering the week I had, I am not kidding, I had two days where I pretty much ate everything that wasn’t nailed down and a third day where it was a little better but not stellar.  TOM is due any second, I have [...]

Crap!  My plantar fasciitis is really kicking it lately (no pun intended!)  My food has been good today after a slight misstep with some pizza and breadsticks last night…why do I forget that that stuff makes me feel like the world is crashing in?  About 3 hours after I ate it I was in the [...]

And not in the good way!  Actually, I am pretty calm about things but I wanted to put it out there that I really haven’t gotten anywhere with my weight loss efforts.  In fact, looking back on it, I am up a pound and a half to 165.5.  Well, here is the thing, my dogwalking [...]

So, it has been awhile since I have sat down here to visit…with you…with myself…  I have been dealing with some bumps in the road…  I have become a little reserved with the other forum that I post on…RR… and it has lead to some bumps and wobbles of my faith in the program…  I [...]
