TGIF!!!  Wow this has been a long week.  I'm so glad it is Friday.  The weather has been nasty everywhere I've been since September 10th, so I'm so ready to just to hibernate.  I made a huge pot of "Hodge Podge Soup".  Well...it is really a combination of everything from my garden...green beans, tomatoes, tomatoe juice, carrots, potatoes, squash, zuchinni, spinach, cabbage, celery, and corn.  For protein I added a can of black beans, two cans of chicken breast, and  then finished it up with 2 pkgs of vegetable soup mix.  Yes...it was a huge pot so I brought in six nice bowls for the girls I work with who are on weight watches.  Then I scooped up about 14 - 1/2 cup servings for me to freeze and pull out as needed.  I had that for lunch today and it was yummy.  Very filling and good for me.  I am trying so hard to lose the remaining 19 lbs to be 130lbs, but I'm just hanging around 149-150.  I'm not ready to give up yet, but I'm wondering if I have reached the weight my body needs me to be.    COMMENT TO MY BODY:   "I JUST WANT TO BE 130LBS FOR ONE DAY PLEASE.  THANK YOU!!!!!

Tomorrow is the Apple Festival in Lebanon.  My friend and I always go.  We love the crafty things.  I'm not buying this year though...I'm just looking for ideas and then I'm coming home and making up my own stuff.    I'm going to make as many gifts as I can this year.  It is fun to look and walk, walk, walk.

My son is getting married on August 28th, 2010 so you know I am excited to be wering a size 10 dress!  While we were on vacation my son made the comment "I'm so glad that you get to be skinny for my wedding."  My children understand how I felt being in a body that weighed 320lbs.  I was kind of trapped there for so long.  It is so excited to finally be released.

Have a great weekend!!!
