Hey everyone, I have been trying for a while to update my homepage and nothing works.  I have changed it a bunch of times in the past, but now nothing works.  Does anyone know if something has changed?  Has anyone been able to change your homepage around?  Just Stumped!!  Please Help

I am just looking back at my tracker for the last month and realized that I have been messing around with the same 5 lbs for a month now.  My two times being away from home definately did not help.  Ever since coming home from New Hampshire the beginning of this month I have had a hard time staying on track!  Before vacation I would feel satisfied after a meal and not feel like I needed anything for quite a while.  Now I never can quite feel satisfied.  I know that the 1st week back on plan will be the most difficult, but has to happen now and I will feel better.  I know I must stay away from all bad foods because even a taste can throw off my bloodsugar and send me on a craving frenzy!  (Last week a 1/4th of a cookie turned into 12 @ 11pm!!)  It’s a miracle I dropped a pound last week!  I was right on track 99% of the day, but that 1% was a killer!!

This will be a good week!  I will not allow this to go on any longer.  No food tastes as good as it feels when I am losing weight and not eating that crap!  I have bloodsugar level issues where it gets too low and sends me on a sugar craving frenzy.  Staying away from refined sugar is the only way to control it

Well gotta get going!  Have a great day everyone and sorry to all my Wildcat buddies.  I will not let you down this week, I promise!

Well I’m back from my mini vacation w/ the guys so it is time to get back to business!  It’s amazing how a 4 day weekend can turn into a 2 week slide before you know it!!.  My laptop was acting up before I left so I had sent it away to be fixed while I was gone.  I found it hard to stay on plan without logging my food intake and exercise.  I just got it back from Bestbuy over the weekend so I’m ready to get back to it!

What a Monday!!  With all the changes I don’t know if this will work, but here goes.  Let me know if any of you see this

Well vacation is over and I have some catching up to do!!  What I gained back over the last week should be gone soon!!  I think eating a little more over the last week will kickstart my system and actually help with future loss.  We will have to see there

rn

Well no more for me for a while!!  Rock on everyone!!!

Well, I hit 25 lbs gone yesterday!!  I hit my 1st mini goal.  Pretty exciting stuff. 

rn

This is actually my 4th time trying to post this blog.  I got it done twice and my computer messed up and I lost it!!

rn

I hate typing the same thing over and over, but here goes.

rn

I set my new mini goal to be 15 lbs more which I would like to be at by the end of June.  We go on vacation for a week starting the 1st so that may not be realistic, but I will get there by mid July for sure!!

rn

I am really enjoying doing the weight loss challenge!!  It really helps knowing you have others relying on you when the frig starts calling your name!!  Go Jags!!  Let’s have a great weigh in on Sunday!!

rn

Everyone have a great holiday weekend!!

Well yesterday I was all mad because I jumped 2 lbs both Sat and Sun.  Back on track yesterday and I was back down to where I was before the gain plus an additional 1 lb.  Anyone got any ideas of why this would happen?  I didn’t starve myself, but ended up w/ a 5 lb loss for the day  I added 15 min cardio but that is it.

rn

Anyway, I feel better.  I hated to lose a whole weeks progress over a day and a half!!

rn

A special thanks to all the Jags for making me feel welcome!!  Also, Thanks for the inspiration Dawnie and tasha I hope you feel Better!!

rn

Have a great day everyone!

Well today I face my 1st challenge in my weight loss.  I gained over the weekend and I know it was my fault.  I can now tell when I am full and should stop eating.  Both yesterday and Saturday @ dinner I knew I was full and that littke voice in the back of my head said “OK, you are full.  PUT THE FORK DOWN!!”  I did not listen to it.

rn

This is the point in a diet where in the past after a small setback I would get mad, say this is not worth it and head for McDonalds.  Not this time !!!  I will not fail again!!  I know I must be more careful on the weekends.  I want to relax a little w/ it, but it does not make any sence to ruin a weeks worth of progress in 2 days!

rn

Anyways, I hope everyone had a great weekend!!

Hello y’all

Today has been a pretty good day.  My 2 litle ones @ home took a nap at the same time today! (2hrs)  That may not seem like a big deal, but I got to do my elliplical UNINTERUPTED and went for a swim afterwards.  The pool was cold (75), but felt great just the same.  (I know 75 doesn’t sound cold to some, but for TX it is)

rn

Well, gotta get the kids ready for a Baseball game tonight.  Have a great weekend everyone

Today I hit 15 lbs lost.  I still have a long way to go, but progress has definately been made.  I can’t believe how much better I feel already and wonder what it’s going to be like when I finally get to my goal.

My replacement cell phone just arrived, which is a great thing.  (Both our phones were stolen over the weekend)  We replaced the other one last night.  You don’t realize how dependant you are one these things until they are gone.  Hopefully our replacement credit cards will be here in a few days and things can get back to normal.

I was just going to go up and workout because my 2 yr old just went up for a nap, but as soon as I got back downstairs the baby woke up and wants to eat.  I think they plan this every day.    Guss it will have to wait.  Gotta go get a bottle ready…..
