Quinn's B-day was yesterday.  My baby is now 3 years old!

Had my interview yesterday, and it went FANTASTIC.  The guy practically asked me to marry him.  He even asked me about salary, I didn't fall for that though.  I'm hoping for at least 70K.  LAWD knows they are gonna make me work for it :)

Keep those prayers comming - they are working ya'll!

Got on my 14s today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And my XL shirt from Limited.  I think I'm REAL cute ;)
Ain't nobody at work said nothing yet--that's how I KNOW I'm looking good.

I'm A FINALIST!  I found out lst Friday, so I'm a week late posting.  But all that stress paid off.  I am a FINALIST for the Rockefeller Foundation Real Estate Development fellowship.  I'll be getting a new development job adnd taking intensive courses at UNO for about 9 months.  The job will last for 2 years though.    NOW I have to compete for 19 jobs out of 25 finalists.  Got my first interview this Monday.  Pray for me ya'll!!!!!!

It's Saturday night, but i just HAD to write.  I weighted in at 200 all day long today.  I started friuts and veggies on MONDAY and have lost 10 lbs by Saturday.  It's way more than I imagined.  I have been eating protein the last couple of days, but no red meat and no bread.  I needed that jump start.  I am ONE POUND from Wonderland!  I can hardly believe this.  I couldn't tell you the last time I was under 200. MAYBE the early 90s.   I don't notice a difference in my clothes this week though.  That's weird.  I just want to look as good as possible for my interview Tuesday.  Anyone reading this please say a prayer for me and my fellowship.

205 ya'll!

Good news.  I have been sticking to my fruit and veggie only diet pretty well.  I was poopin my head off yesterdaty.  I cheated today and had some blackened chicken on a Caesar salad at lunch.  Sista HAD to get some prioein in.  Not too bad. I've been eating watermelon adn cut friut all the rest of the time. Oh yea, and yogurt.  I'm down 4 lbs since Monday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I weighed in the morning and this afternoon - 206.  My goal is 9 lbs in 9 days.  We'll see.  I'm just glad to see the scale moving agian. 

My 9 month mark came and went with no weight loss. I am tired of these 16s and have decided to do something about it.  I am doing the fruit and veggie detox diet that I read about on BAF. I have had a protein smoothie and some vegitarian chili for lunch today.  I'm going to do this as long as I can.  I have to see that scale move again.

First about the job.  I WAS selected as a semifinalist and WILL be interviewed on the 24th.  Whew.  They were just late with getting the invitations out.  That was nerve wrecking, but I did not eat anymore cake even thought it's still in the kitchen.  I just did not want to be sick anymore. Also, I discovered why I had been craving all the wrong stuff when my period started on Friday night.  Early.  No more lbs lost, but I am back  on track and have been eating like a little angel all weekend.  Gotta start exercising.


2 weeks ago I got my hair cut.  I guess it was the week after we got back from Miami.  I love it.  I'll try to post some pics.  Please tell me what you think! :)

How to post pics in this post?

I've been eating B-day cake.  It was my moms.  It made me sick.  WHY do I do this to myself?  I KNOW that this tool is going to get a lot more lenient on me in just a minute and I have to have some self control.  I'll be 9 mos on the 12th.

On a lighter note, I bought my first pair of 14s this weekend.  They are tight, of course, but that is how jeans are supposed to fit.  I'm still loosing inches and am holding steady at 210.  Hopefully I can pull off another 5-10 lbs. at the start of my period this month.

I applied for a job and don't think I got it.  I had to do essays and send transcripts.  I believe that the transcripts did me in.  I am totally bummed.  I'm going to try my hardest to keep up with healthy food in the midst of this depressing event.  God help me.

It worked!  I got onthe scale over the weekend and was down to 210.  I guess eating like a pig is what I am supposed to be doing.  I had been loosing only onthe first day of my period, so I was suprised to loose those 5 lbs in the middle.  Thank goodness though.  Still a size 16 and wishing for a 12.  Pray for me. : )

8 months out

Aight ya'll!  Just got back from Miami yesterday. I ate like a pig all weekend.  I suprised myself.  I am back on my diet today.  Though, I am wondering if THAT is not how I am supposed to be eating.  Ya'll know I usually only get in between 500-700 cal per day.  Well not thtis weekend.  All the food was SO good.  Anyway, I STARTED today and the scale read..... 215!!!  Hot daym!  That's down 102lbs total!  Last month at my period I was at 222lbs. Then went up to 225lbs during the course of the month.  So I guess that's 7 lbs for the month.  I am today 8 months out.  NOT complaining.  I just gotta do better.  I still have not heard from the nut I requested a food suggestion list from.  But whatever, all is well.  Still in a 16 but more comfortably.  MIAMI was a blast!
