Bout time!

Feb 25, 2008

Well, shame on me.  Here it is February 25, 2008 and I have not updated this profile for a long time.  No excuses!  I am doing great.  I found myself putting on some unwanted pounds, 23 to be exact.  But as of the weekend I started myself on what I will call my "recovery program".  Getting back on Target with eating right and exercising, I have a goal of June 5, 2008 (My wedding anniversary) to have these unwanted pounds gone FOREVER!! But nonetheless I am still feeling wonderful.  I get a little sad sometimes when I think about my baby girl living so far away, but I do get to visit her in June.  So I have two great things to look forward to in June.  Alot happened last year..some good...some bad.  We bought a house,  a new Truck, Jacob started Kindergarten.  Can't wait to start having some cookouts and going to the lake!!  Until later...I will update when I hit my goal!!

Goodness...two years!!

Well, I had my two year anniversary on May 5 but I am just now able to update.  I am doing way too good.  I have decided my body needs and wants to be a size 12 and that is fantastic with me.  I was wearing a size 10 for a while but that was just way to thin for my height!  I am now working at Walmart and loving it.  My husband and I bought our first home and it is beautiful!  We are having fun decorating it and just knowing its our own is way cool!  We went on Patoka Lake yesterday on the Pontoon and had such a fun time.  I was wearing one of my new $100.00 suits and looking pretty cool in it!!  We have been having friends and family over to our new house for cookouts and just enjoying life.  I have never regretted the surgery and know it was the best thing I ever did for myself.  More to come...

Update finally

Okay, I have decided that I do not want to be one of those people that I use to criticize.  Finally at my goal weight and stop posting because I am thinking solely of myself and forgetting how other people still need the encouragement just like I did.  So here goes.  I am doing fine.  I say fine, because I am a little depressed.  Not because of my weight, but because my little girl has gone off to join the Air Force.  Although I know in my heart this is the best thing for her, it just doesn't take away the pain and emptiness I feel right now.  But the good news is, I still have my wonderful husband whom I adore and my two beautiful sons.  I have decided today that I will no longer allow other people to dictate how I am going to feel.  If people do not want to be with me for whatever reasons than thats fine.  I am once again taking control of my life before it tries to take control of me again.  My weight is at a very acceptable place and I am going to start exercising faithfully again so by the time warm weather gets here me and Jacob will be fit and ready to kick the ass outa the world!!  I am attending my support group meeting tonight as I promised myself I would and I plan on being faithful and going everytime.  If not just for myself, to give others the support that I so longed for in the past.  Everyone have a great day, I know I will.

Okay, I am getting a little worried.  I just got off my period...so thought I would weigh.  But let me first say that I have had a couple of days of ....let's see...how do I put this, let's say I have been on the toilet alot.  Anyway, I weighed this morning and I weighed 168!!!  This cannot be happening.  I know I should be happy about the loss and not the gain, but I didn't want to lose anymore.  I don't NEED to lose anymore.  I am probably going to be considered underweight when I check the BMI board.  I need to call my doctor today and set something up.  I know that with my new job I am walking ALOT and not being able to eat, but good grief...I don't wanta be a skeleton!!  Any advice from anyone out there will be appreciated!!!

Who's idea was this anyway???

Okay, I had absolutely no problem with our old format profile.  Did we even get a vote as to whether or not we wanted our profiles to look this way or not>>>>>I think not!!  Oh well, so here goes.  I feel like I am starting all over now.  Everything is going fine these days.  I am pretty sure I am holding at about 173, size 10 so things are great in that department.  I have started my new job as Server at the new Longhorn on Veterans Parkway and finding out that serving can be a pain in the butt sometimes!  I do want to say that I had breakfast with my best girlfriend Lisa this morning and she is looking FANTASTIC.  I am so proud of her she has come so far and in such a short time!!  Well, hubby is home and we are off to lunch, everyone have a fantastic week.
