My week was blur of activity. I only slept 5 hours every night to fit it all in. It was hubby's parents 50th anniversary so we were there all weekend but I drove back for hockey practise. We camped there with about 60 others and then there was a big party yesterday.
The kids were "off" on the weekend. They are the only little kids. Lots of strange people, not enough sleep. That was exhausting.
My house is a disaster!!!!!! Such a crazy ,loooong week last week.
Hockey at 6pm today. DS made the A team. They have a great goalie coach working with him one on one. In a shoot out he saved 25 out of 30 shots. He makes it look effortless too. My 15 year old nephew came to watch. he's played net for 11 years, AAA. He thought DS rocked.
Today is all about finding my home under all the piles of stuff. School, canning, hockey, Avon, School Council, church and SS, newsletter writing............................... all have their very own huge mess to clean up. Oh and laundry and beds changed, poop to scoop.......
I went to bed at 8:30 last night, read for a bit and slept til 6:30. It was great!!!!!
I got pickles, jam and spiced peaches all made. YUM!!
Sounds like everyone made it through the weekend with minimal damage. Hoorah!
I spent Saturday taking a "me" day. Did very little housework and watched the entire first season of Nip/Tuck on DVD. I had not seen it at all. A friend let me borrow her DVDs. Whew it is quite racey. I am going to trade her the 1st season for the 2nd season tomorrow. haha. Worked OT on Sunday, dang if I don't get my daughters college bills caught up soon it will be the death of me.
Supposed to go to WW tonight. Trying to talk myself into it as I know it will be bad. Last week was a free week so to speak as my Monday night class was cancelled due to the holiday.
Hope everyone is healthy and happy, OP and focused.
Sarah: You are such a inspiration.
Don't leave us just because you get to onderland. We need all the encouragement we can get. I am so proud of you my friend.
Annie, Holly: It is so good to hear from ya'll.
I'm below my pts range for today. I have 5 left. Well that doesn't make up for a -16 on my weekly pts
Good morning,
I'm confused I post here yesterday and a gremlin ate it.
I was down 4 lbs at WW last night. Thats the 3 water lbs I gained last week plus 1 more.
I MADE IT TO CURVES THIS MORNING!!!
It felt good. I hope this is a sign of me getting back on track.

my story
ive been a lil on the chunky side ever since i was in middle school getting picked on just a lil by the "popular boys" anyways the summer before my 9th grade year i started a program that my school provided for the upcomming 9th graders.. you not only had to study and do book work for the summer but you had to set physical goals for yourself as well... so like everyone went outside and ran a mile (the ppl timed u) i ran that mile as hard as i could... i had to walk several times it took me 11min and 45 secs... GEEZE!! and i was a KID! then when the program was about over they retested everyone .. i ran that mile NO STOPPING in under 8 and 1/2 mins!!! i was sooo happy during the summer since i was only 14 i would walk to this guys house who i liked he lived 3 miles away... i would be walking 6 miles a day! i looked soooo good granted this was before kids and stress and life but i still was weighing a 160lbs but wearing a size 10/11 cuz it was mostly muscel after that.. i was hot cRAP!! i met my 1st husband when i was 15 ... we dated ... i got pregnant (16) weight = 155-160 and married when i was 18yrs =235... that lasted like 5 mins... lol and when we divorced i weighed 253lbs... AHHHHHHHHHHHHH... i lost a bunch of weight mostly i think cuz i was so devestated from my marriage ending... but we separated aug of 03 i had lost 57 lbs by the 1st of dec. 03 thats when i met JEREMY my husband now... we dated.. by our 3rd month of dating he asked me to marry him.. i was sooo happy (still am) 2 mts after we were married i was weighin = 215-220 in oct.04 we got pregnant i gained about 35-40lbs w/ my son... i got up to 262 lbs.. after my son was born i lost most of the weight except for like 10 15 lbs then i started eating bad again...i went from post delivery of 242lbs back up to 255lbs thats where i started in JULY of 06 im currently @ 236 im really happy that im doing good... i had been having trouble w/ my b/p it had been being really high dr. told me this past monday (9/11/06) if i didnt change the way i was eating i was going to become a diabetic and be put on meds for my b/p.. i was really really really upset.. my husband is a type 1 diabetic and lord knows i didnt need to become a type 2 .. so dr. put me on a 1600cal day diet... which im doing great at! and told me to walk 4 or 5 times a wk for 30mins each time... but ive been walking 1 mile and then doing the carmen electra strip tease... lol my hubby will love that! lots of water... watching my salt... i drink crytal light opposed to diet drinks also... i mean ill have one every once in a while but i like the crystal light and its only 5 calories sooooooooo ill take the calories opposed to putting more chemicals and extra sodium in my diet when drinking a diet drink or reg drink for that matter....

Same as holly~but still here. I am motivated to get my exercise in, but little sick ones keep getting in my way. oh well, that what being a mommy is for.
Welcome C. B.
Off to try to get in some Yoga before DH gets home.
Its been a while since I have posted. My husband is home now, his reaction was awesome!! This is what he said, " The pictures you sent me were impressive, but seeing you in person, I am blown away!" That was 10 days ago, now he is a crabby #$&%head. We have been fighting for 4 days non stop, I don't know what to do. I thought my stress would lessen once he returned home, now I am more stressed out than before. Major depression is kicking my butt right now and he is making it worse.
Good news though, the scale was stuck at 212 for the past MONTH. I weighed this morning and I am down to 210, WOOHOOO!!! I better go now, hope all of you are well.
Hey everyone,
I had a busy w-end dh was off work so we stayed on the run. I stayed op except for the pizza
I plan to go to curves this afternoon. Now that it cooling off I should be able to go 3x a week.
I made the best soup saturday. I found it on the WW website. Even the guys loved it.
3 cans of ff chicken broth
2 1lb bags of frozen california veggies
1 can of rotel tomatoes
7 oz light velveta
2 tbs corn starch
Cook the veggies, tomatoes and broth for about 30 mins, then mix in cheese til melted. mix cornstarch in water and add into soup.
YUMMY....
Tiffany: Hang in there.
Holly: Great to hear from you. Are you getting any rest since school started?
Hey everyone,
I've not done too bad the last couple of days. I've even gone to curves 2x this week
I'm going to ww tonight instead of weds because of dh rotating days off.
We don't have much time together so it works out great being able to go 2 nights. It's the same leader.
Annie: glad to hear from you I hope you feel better soon
Sometime I think I need to just do a post that I can save then copy,cut and paste. All my posts seem so much the same.
oh well, that what being a mommy is for.
We are glad to have you
