I'm really too busy to write, but 3 months deserves a word or two. I can't believe I only had surgery 3 months ago, and have lost 60 pounds! 45 more pounds to get to my wedding day weight! After next week I'll be more free to write, I just have to get through this home makeover!

Channel 2 is coming to the staging house today to film the before pictures, I have nothing to wear, uggg! I just got the call last night, but then again they may not even get me, they are there to film the house. I am going to be so busy the next 2 weeks, and last night I think I was getting sick, aches and pains and a fever, I took some tylonol and went to bed, feeling ok right now, I have no time to get sick, I'm showing houses to 2 different clients today plus the staging house, plus a settlement next week. I'm worried that I'm not eating enough, I'm doing the protein drink in the morning and then water, but not getting much food.
Autism 25 mile ride and still alive
Apr 27, 2008
25 miles on very hilly roads, on a wet and cold day and now with unspeakable body parts hurting, because of a slightly broken seat (but I didn't realize it was broken until the bike repair guy told me). Anyway I survived and fully expect to be tons lighter tomorrow, because after all what sane person rides for 3 hours and doesn't lose weight - probably me! Met Ellen from the OH site (she's the one that told me about the evil ride).
Bike
Apr 24, 2008
My body is screeming....... I did way too much, I was out on the bike for 2 hours and 20 minutes (I had to rest about 5 time coming up the Manor Road hill, so really should not have taken that long). My butt is killing me!
today
Apr 23, 2008
Not a lot on the schedule today, I will go out for a long bike ride, maybe doing 12 miles, I'll see how I feel when (if) I get to the top of the hill. All this excersize finally made the scale move a pound in the right directon, I've been battling over a two pounds up and down for the last week. I'm not letting the stress of the delayed settlement get to me, it will happen, it will just cost a bit more. - it's going to be a beautiful day. Happy Birthday Millie!!!!
yuck

My mood is matching the yucky day! Gained a pound, didn't excercise, didn't eat well. Just a yucky day!
Beatiful Day
Apr 18, 2008
Well it is a beautiful day, I'm sitting here on flood duty at the office, but only until 11:30. I won't be able to go to the book club gathering today (read "19 Minutes" - what a downer), going to take Ana to a play.
This is how I'll plan my day...
1st - ride my bike.
2nd - go to the thrift store (running out of shorts)
3nd - take Ana to see the play Zombie Prom.
Yesterday Ana had friends over so we went on a hike out back for a hour, they swam and played archery, it was a very good outdoorsy day!
Weight is moving VERY slowly, but with the weather improved, I excerise more and hopefully kick it in gear!!!!

Black Tie
Apr 12, 2008
Well I had lots of fun last night, I wore the same dress as 2 weeks ago, but went with black shoes and hose. I felt better, I socialized with everyone, I intorduced myself to Dr. Vilanta and had a long talk with Delegate Bill Frank, didn't speak to Cardinal Keeler only because I wasn't certain then how to address him (your eminance) It was a good night, however I have to remember that on a night like this I must forgo the hors d'oeuvrs, I couldn't touch my dinner, and I was feeling uncomfortable for a while.
Oh yes, and today I hit the 50lbs lost mark!!!!!! WOOO WHOOO

Another formal outing
Apr 11, 2008
Well we have another event tomorrow night, the good thing is that I fit into one of my size 18 dresses, but the bad thing is that I couldn't find my black satin shoes anywhere, I actually ended up cleaning the whole upstairs in search of them, so I had to go shopping and I came home with 2 pairs of shoes. It's amazing, I've always had big feet (size 10) then I had a baby and as the years went by gained a lot of weight - with that came size 11 (and sometimes size 12) shoes. NOW however, it looks like size 10 is coming back into my life, some of 10's were still tight and uncomfortable, but most of them worked. The point is that I was only supposed to buy a pair of shoes for tomorrow, but I found the cutest pair of black patent leather shoes that will look great with a dress or pants - I'll just hide those from Michael for a while.
