Morning Ladies. I'm not really supposed to be here, I'm supposed to be at work. But Aaron had other plans. THis morning, on our way out the door, he threw up all over the both of us. So I had to get a last-minute sub and here I am, with a day at home. Kind of nice the way it turned out.
THis last week at WI I managed to lose the 3 lbs I had gained the week before. It boggles my mind how you can put on then lose exactly the same amount of weight in two weeks. My new Walk Off the Pounds DVDs came in so hopefully that losing trend will continue. I also got a new yoga DVD and a bellydance DVD. Belle, I think of you every time I do that one. That's a really good strength building workout. It surprised me just how much it took to do the beginner's routine.
TOnya, I am proud of you for being back in control and going and getting your yearly done. I hate that appointment, and try to put it off as much as I can.
Hey Dr. Lori, long time no see! How are you feeling these days? Is your queasiness going away?
Laura -- what are you going to do with all of that time on your hands? My vote is call CB, rent some DVD's, lock the doors, and don't open them until you have to (except to admit healthy take-out as you're bound to get hungry sooner or later!) You enjoy your time!
Congrats on a fabulous weigh-in Robin! You should be very proud of yourself. You and I have just aobut the same distance to go. I want to finish at 125 - 130, so at this point I've got 53 - 58 lbs to go. Seems overwhelming, but if I can just lose a pound a week, I'll be there in less than a year. I need ot keep thinking of that. I also need to stop thinking that if I would have just stuck with it the first (or second, or third, or fourth) time I started WW, I would be there now...Can't erase the past though, only change the future.
Well, I'll be in and out today. Just trying to get some packing done. We're leaving for vacation tomorrow -- going to Mardi Gras! I am so excited. Drew is a native New Orleanean, so his mom will be watching Aaron for us so that we can go act stupid in the French Quarter. Just how stupid is still to be determined!
So when you're seeing the news reports of all of the debauchery on Bourbon Street, look for me debauching
in the background!!!
Later, gators!

17 pounds gone forever, 53 to go. Kind of sucks when I look at it that way. I think I'll go with just "17 pounds gone forever" at the moment. I'm late for work because my ear aches so bad I got about three hours sleep so I slept in. We only have 2 patients in ICU at the moment so I think they'll survive. I'd like to crawl back into bed. I'll check the posts tonight to say hellos that I missed yesterday. Have a great day.
