Oh,
Bamie...someone obviously dropped the X on his head as a baby.
How could he let your son get hurt on the same arm?
I hope DS is okay.
Ruth, do you
feel tired? As you get older, you need less sleep. I'm with Schatzi and Ellis...use that time to relax and have some alone time away from Mr. Pouty, Code Browns, and such. Just you and the puppies and the sunrise.
Enjoy your time playing in the dirt!
A broad, funny about the fake bake. I've never tried it. Just seems way too tiresome to spend all that time smoothing. I can hardly be bothered to get sunscreen on, and that doesn't have to be spread perfectly!
Schatzi, your avatar makes me laugh!
Ellis, Is that the day Harry Potter comes out?
Not sure...hopefully it's something fun!
A little bird told me you used your treadmill. YGG!
I'm skipping Jazzercize tonight (that is, if they're even having it) to go to the grocery store. I feel like such a slacker!
Chelsea, what in heaven's name is a butter cream cake?
I doubt I want to know, but I think you are marvelous for avoiding it!
Me:
Well, the trip to PA was heavenly.
Ethan could not be more adorable if he tried. He has the
bluest eyes and the most wonderful smile.
He's just starting to learn to laugh, and I got to spend several hours worth holding him while there, which was a supreme pleasure. Seeing his wonderful mom and seeing her with him was even more fun.
Thankfully, our DHs get along (they have ever since they realized that they both liked soup at Olive Garden while us girls all had salad and thought getting soup was sacriligious...
) so it was fun to just hang out.
There wasn't a lot to eat for me, unfortunately. I did bring food with, but didn't bring veggies. Should have, in hindsight.
Such is life. I had beans for breakfast (cleaning out the fridge), yogurt for snack about 11:00, then didn't have anything until the party around 5:00. Then I had a burger on a WW roll (brought it with me) and had a bunch of veggies with dip and fresh fruit. I had another burger, no roll, later that evening. The next day, I had my regular Phase 1 breakfast (brought it with me) and then had a grilled chicken sandwich on WW bread for lunch. We stopped at a little country place on the way home and I had another burger, but no bun, and stewed tomatoes, which was the vegetable. I really missed my veggies!
Still, it definitely helped my weight loss. That, plus my TOM ending, put me at 209.5 this morning!
I was thrilled! If I can hold on to something like that until tomorrow, I might have made goal for the first time in three months!
Went to the gym this morning and did my strength training for 45 minutes. It really felt good.
I feel bad for skipping Jazzercise tonight, but it's finals week and I need to get home and work on my lesson plans for class, so I need to get to the grocery store as soon as work is over. DH is putting the patio set together and getting a propane tank (he has the day off, I don't...) and we're going to grill chicken, veggies, and sweet potatoes on the new grill tonight. Yum!!!
Hope everyone has a great memorial day!
We slipped out of work to watch the parade that goes right by our building. It was cute; they even had a float with a car made entirely out of skinny balloons! Cool!
WTG on the loss. Glad to hear that you're not having cravings. Watch out for phase 2. That's when I start getting cravings.
Great on making goal.
