My Life

If this was a novel it would be put in the back on the discount rack like another can of beer.

I overslept this morning and missed the meeting. I made an effort to go but by the time I got dressed it was 10:00 a.m. so I just stayed home. Lloyd and Sabine came for dinner. M. cooked the ribs. She bought them for the guys that helped with the dome but only Jordon came and he had plans for dinner. So she and D. invited L & S. They brought one of Ronnie’s boys with them. I can’t remember his name. He was very polite.

Well I have to go shower and get ready for bed. Along with doing some cross stitch. I think I will get another pair of those reading glasses. They really help with the cross stitch.

I was below 130 today. Hope it stays there, keeps going lower.

Dome Demolishing Day

Hi all. I have not been able to post from work, I got busted by the internet police and was told I was spending too much time on ‘inappropriate websites’. I know this is now Sunday but I haven’t gone to bed yet so it feels like Saturday.

I have been cleaning my bedroom. It is a major project. I am not a neat person and I have piles and piles of stuff I am having to go through.

My BF and her husband had to demolish a shed, it’s a dome actually, in their yard. I helped by getting kids out of the way. I took them to Chili’s. I got grilled chicken with a side of broccoli instead of rice and black beans. Then I had a sweet shot for dessert. They are little desserts that fit in a shot glass. A nice little sweet taste to end the meal.

Then when I came home I started cleaning again. It had been raining so I used my umbrella then I had it open to dry and the cat tried to climb on it! The only thing the dumb thing did was put holes in it.

Well I have to go now. BBL.

Today

I keep hovering around 130, I go down 2 pounds then back up. I started back at Allsport, hopefully that will help keep me down. Tonight when I got to Allsport, someone was on the AMT, so I went on the elliptical. Then she got the AMT, so I went on it, and forgot to subtract the time I was on the elliptical. I wondered why I was running late to get Stitch and Gwen and why were my legs so sore? Dummy! Well, I got a really good workout in and rewarded myself with a cafe mocha after. And when Stitch and Gwen wanted to stop at Wendy’s, I didn’t get anything!

Here is a website with pictures from WW thread.

Busted

The appropriate use police have caught up with me. So for a while I will not be blogging from work, not that I did very much anyway and not going on WW (WAAW) or checking my e-mail.

When I was cleaning my room I found some old cross stitch projects, along with the reading glasses I bought to do them. So that helped me get over being mad.

Someone mentioned that a friend of her daughters was just diagnosed with leukemia. She is 13. I thought about Nathan and wondered if I should say anything. Of course I didn’t, why make somebody feel sad when they want to feel hope? Anyway, Nathan was 20 years ago, there has been tremendous progress made in treatments since then.

Sunday was Kate and Josh’s going away party. I ate too much.

I have made it back to Allsport. Yay for me!

Well I am going to check my WW threads and then stitch some, then go to bed.

BYE BYE

Gripes

Hi all. I had WI today. 127.2 pounds, down 0.4 pounds, total loss 12.8 pounds. To answer Barb’s question about where I was, Feb 5-7, (M-T-W) I was at the Marriott in Time Square, (no computer) Thursday and Friday I was home (Dial-up Internet connection). Tuesday I came home early and found Stitch in a panic cause the kitchen pipes for the hot water were frozen. Then on Thursday the furnace died. Friday morning I was too cold to get out of bed. So I didn’t get a workout in from Monday to Wednesday. Thursday I got a light workout in, Friday a little more of a workout, then Saturday I was cleaning the basement because they are supposed to be bringing a new furnace this week. I was going to go workout after but Fred starting bugging me about going with me to play racquetball and I didn’t want the extra pressure so I just said forget it and didn’t go. Sunday morning I made up for it with an hour long step aerobics class . My legs are sore. So that was my week. Oh, except I got a letter from my mother that upset me. Don’t ask, don’t ask, OK, you can ask, but I won’t answer. Thanks for listening, aren’t you sorry you asked now?

I am so glad to be back to my normal routine, almost, can’t do my laundry like I normally do. But I had my oatmeal and pineapple this a.m. instead of ½ an everything bagel with cream cheese and I will have my salad (I never in my life thought I would WANT to have a salad, actually look forward to it) for lunch. Hopefully things will start moving (to put it delicately, any other way would be TMI) and I will lose. I mean, I did lose, but only 0.4 pounds. Which means I have another 0.4 pounds to lose to make up for my gain 2 weeks ago. Took me a day to gain it, and at least 3 weeks to lose it. I am back on track, I went to a step aerobics class yesterday morning. The teacher is also my friend’s WW leader so she knows me so I have to do good. My legs are so sore, I am such a wimp. ♥♪

WW Progress notes

Last weigh in I was 128.2 pounds. That a gain of 0.4 pounds. I know why, M and I went to Chevy’s on Saturday and I had the whole lunch. This week I read a post that when you eat out, you need to increase your water because of how much sodium is in restaurant food. I went on their website and checked the sodium level. She was right! That’s why I gained 1.4 pounds in a day. Saturday I was 126.8 pounds. Last night when I went home I ate: a grilled cheese sandwich, a brownie, some Doritos, some slices of pepperoni, drank a glass of milk. And as I was wondering if I should have more Doritos or another brownie, M. called to tell me she was coming home and I could go work out if I want to (I was watching her two youngest for her). It was a good thing, since now I definitely needed to! I’m just wondering how she knew I was eating all her food. Today I feel sick. But I think I just eliminated the problem.

Lemons save me

I discovered that lemon juice and pepper make the olive oil tolerable. So last night I had leaf lettuce with celery with a teaspoon of olive oil, lemon juice and pepper.

New weight

I weighed myself this morning and I am 130.0 pounds. After that post I read, I took my goal and my weight out of my profile. I will still post my weight here. I bought a scale to keep downstairs, but it is cheap and not accurate. So once again I have wasted money.

Tom wanted to take me out to dinner Friday. So I went. While we were waiting for a table, we went to the bar and I had this specialty drink. It did not sit well with me. It must have had something in it I was allergic to. I ended up in the ladies room, Tom sent the waitress to find out if I was all right. How humiliating! I had saved all my Flex points and didn’t even eat all my daily points! I am still feeling icky from it.
