I'm sluggish this morning, but waking up. Currently nibbling on two very tart plums.
I have a ton of food prep today, it is my prep day, so I'm going to make a fruit salad, a cucumber/orange/dill salad, and cut up a bunch of stuff. Very foodie day...
I did go yesterday to the store, well stores, and ended up at the Avenue during their jean sale. Good lord jeans are expensive! I hate spending money lol. Anyhow, I ended up getting a size 24 and 22 jeans, of course they are stretchy, but I am now officially a size 24...my size 26 ones are sagging badly on me. I can't even wear my Old Navy jeans, they are way to big now 26/28 (they are more like a 28). They are at the point where they start to slide down. Ya'll know how it is. :/ So, I have now a nice buffering jean collection. I remember when I used to wear 5XL pants and I remember how excited I was last summer when I could fit into my size 32/34 jeans. lol... It is nice to be able to shop in stores, even if it is plus size, I still love it. To be honest, I just love the Avenue, I would shop there even if I weren't this size lol. Their lingerie is so pretty! I was tempted to get a lovely purple bra, but noooooo...jeans are so expensive!
I hope everyone is well. *HUGS*

Hello ladies :}
Yesterday and today are my free days. By free days, I mean I don't worry so much about how many WW points I've used. Of course, I'll still have a normal breakfast, lunch and dinner, but if I want an ice-cream or chocolate, then I'll have it. I won't be having those free days often, maybe every other weekend. Then I go back to normal on Sunday. I think this will help because if I eat healthily for a week and half and have an odd nibble on that weekend, I wouldn't be so tempted to fall off the wagon like I always used to do! I will use the Sunday as an opportunity to exercise and burn off the extra calories I've used.
I had a big bar of Galaxy last night for the first time in a couple of weeks but I then realised that it wasn't worth it. Next time, I will have something less dense, maybe white chocolate in smaller size, or buttons, or jaffa cakes :]
I am going to have a spaghetti bolegnese tonight with cheesy garlic bread, mmm! Looking forward to it
Hello everyone! My weekends tend to be pretty social so I've been away from the computer. My weekend has proven to be my biggest temptation yet! Went to an out of town bar my friends played music at last night, and was faced with pizzas and chips and dip and candybars and, of course, beer and liquor. The food smelled amazing and my turkey burger and salad was a faint memory. So, I decided to eat the banana I had, and splurged by having one light beer and 2 glasses of merlot. I chose drinks over food. heh heh. I did spend 3 hours disc golfing yesterday, which involves a lot of hiking through the woods, up and down hills and ravines and whatnot. So overall I think I'm still good! Gotta get a workout in here soon and debating on what I'm gonna do....
First weigh in for the challenge I'm part of is Monday! I'm anxious and nervous and all of that. Will prob put myself through a bootcamp tomorrow. lol. Hope everyone is having a great weekend!
Yesterday I got laundry done . Then went to my sisters for my nephews birthday party. My uncle was there and I have not seen him in a few months so that was nice. Then we took the kids to the bowling alley. It was a nice birthday.
Today I am going to try and get the kitchen done and my room organized. Also watch football yeah!
Hey ladies! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I'm just going to relax the rest of mine. I had a 2 day photoshoot this weekend. 6+ hours yesterday, and 3+ hours today. Got a lot of great stuff, and worked with 2 great models. Anyhow, I am absolutely EXHAUSTED from all the hiking, squatting, crouching, walking, kneeling I did all day yesterday and today. Definitely makes for a good workout!
And keeping busy keeps me from eating mindlessly.
I'm going to relax, and watch some True Blood. I'm about halfway through the first season (just got around to downloading it), and I'm really liking it.
Have a great evening, all!

I'm slowly learning how to drive again. Not so much the mechanics of driving, but how to get to places. If it isn't on the bus route, then I can't find it.
The attendance at the football game last night was over 62,000 and set a new CFL attendance record. I worked 9 1/2 hours. We made $25,000 and pretty much cooked everything in the building. We were stealing buns from other concession stands, raiding the freezers, and defrosting dogs in the sink so they would cook quicker. My feet are going to sue for separate maintenance.
