Saturday
 

Good morning. We finally have a little cooler weather. Actually it is really nice. I saw where some of you are cold and snowy. Stay warm.
I am doing better. I bought a new exercise video on ebay. Actually I have bought 3 but the first one came yesterday. It is one by Jody Watley. I just did it and I like it. Will add it to my Richard. Of course I do it all sitting down. Those of you that have trouble keeping up with your exercise tapes try doing them sitting. It will work on almost any of them. I never realized how much could be done sitting. Try it. You might be surprised. Doing them sitting beats not doing them.
Altho I haven't been losing I had 2 people tell me yesterday that it looked like I had lost weight. I wish.
But I am doing better and better on eating slower.:cp:
Hope everyone is having a good weekend.
i have to go as I have a lot to get done today and I still have Richard and weights to do:D

good saturdday
 

eleni-weigh to go. You may be losing inches. Sometime the scale and the inches don't show up at the same time. You know that. And you are so right, some is better than none. You will get there. Thanks for showing me how to get those smiles on there. You can see that i've already applied them. I'm glad you are happy with the weather there, it has been very cool here. I'm ready to start lighting the fires. After trick or treating, I couldn't get warm. I went to bed with pants, shirt, socks, housecoat, 3 blankets and a sleeping bag on me. When i woke up I was sweating just a bit, and i couldn't move my neck. Hubby said no wonder with 6 pillows on the bed and none of them straight. That neat thing not down yet.
Summer- you can get to where you need to be. just one day at a time. Hopefully they will get you some help for your dd. How's the one in college?
Christian- i read your jurnal the other day, and you are pumped. Hopefully you can keep that up even after the holidays. It's amazing when God works in our lives, and we realize what it is going on. How is the girl that was with you?
Sherri- you are right, you will find what you are surpose to be doing. Just take it slow. You have wonderful ideas, you are a wonderful person, and what ever God has planned for you, you will do it well. I'm glad Megan enjoy her day. Brandon did too. I was having a slight problem (i'm sure it was me) with one of his teachers. But I got right in there, and helped on Halloween, and yesterday she actually waved at me and said hi, before me. I have done those things, and she has what i felt ignored me. So maybe this was a good thing, me helping out. I had brandon stay at school, but maybe i should of taken him home, but I got some things done, and the time was already paid for, so I think him staying was ok. I just could of used that for us time.
Nancy-great job. I think it's wonderful that you went Christmas shopping instead. Look at it this way, you are closer to being done, and you didn't gain any weight getting there. If anything you lost weight walking around. It may have been cheaper to stay home and eat, but you wouldn't of liked yourself at that moment. I'm sure that had a big impact on you. Did they take the little girl to the hospital afterwards for observation? I'm very proud of you. You did a good thing.
Me- I woke up yesterday with a stiff neck, and last night i slept in the chair on the side that was bothering me. It's not any better. I've put ice on it a bit. We are surpose to go to a football party, but not sure if i'm going. Hubby and brandon may be the only ones going, I said I would let them know after i get out of the shower. I can barley move my head. I still plan on the big goal for me tomorrow, and I will let you know if i did it. I think that the :devil: is trying to keep me from doing this. Maybe he thinks if I can't move my neck than I won't get my goal done. These last few days haven't been my best for following what I know i should be doing. But i'm back on track. What still amazes me about this, that it is still easy to get off track. These changes i'm making have to be consistant, so I can get a pattern down. SO the new way can be 1st nature and the old way can be 2nd nature. We have this one lady at work, she's in her mid 40's but she is a wow. I don't want to be just like her, I just want to find the skinny, happy me. The one that God has intended that I be. I did manage the curves yesterday with my neck the way it is. Brandon starts indoors soccer next week. I am learning one thing that I do to brandon, that i need to slow down on, I give him to many things to do at one time. My planned menues are going well. However I don't have the lunch one done yet. Well I've really rattled on today. So I hope everyone is doing well. :love: :grouphug:

Eleni,

You are doing great with the exercise. I am sure you are losing but it is probably inches not weight. That is great that others noticed you.
Keep up the great attitude. Sure wish I were down there with you about now. It is snowing here right now. Just flurries but I don't like that even. It is way too cold. Burr

Nancy,

I am also very proud of you girl. That was an amazing thing you did. You saved that girls life. Good for you for going shopping instead of eating. Like wendy said at least you are that much closer to being done. Way to go.

Wendy,

You are doing great. Glad to hear that you and the teacher are getting along better. I know you will make your goal tomorrow. You have it in you. Just remember you don't have to be able to turn your head to go.LOL

Chrisitie,

I also read your journal yesterday and you are very pumped girl. You are doing awesome. That is great that jason is going to start turning away from the food when you two spend your time together. There are a lot of things you can do that don't require eating.LOL Glad to see that you are spending that quality time together.

I had a great day today. I made a schedule for myself last night and I started it today. I got in all my exercise today. I went to curves this morning bright and early at 8am. Today is the first day they are open on saturdays. So I will be going on mon, wed and sat from now on. I accomplished everything on my to do list today so I am glad about that.

Have a great night everyone and talk to you tomorrow.

Sherri
