Sunday's weigh in...

This is basically what it said...
Hahahaha, just kidding...it did say that I gained 2 pounds though, damn.
I hate being a woman sometimes and how if affects the scale.
I will just have a better week this week, go me!!!

Inspiration...

I stole this picture off my Aunt Claudia's page.
This is my cousin Danelle, she has lost 70 pounds this year and was able to fit in her wedding dress again!!!
Way to go...I am so proud of her.

No words...

...just a chuckle when I saw this picture!!!
Pete and I weighed in on Sunday. Pete lost 2 pounds and I lost one. Hey, not complaining especially since I ate horrilbly last week. Biggest Loser killed me last week...with the table full of peanut butter cups...of course I had to have some. I couldn't be strong like I always said I would be. Oh well, life goes on and we are on to a new week. I just hope last week does not catch up with me on the next weigh in. So for now, I have lost the feeling that I have to eat anything and everything. Yay!!!!

I am really going to try and get my 30 minutes a day of exercise in...at least 3 days a week. Okay, I will at least get 20 minutes a day of exercise in at least 3 days this week. There, that is more of a goal that I can reach for right now to get back to where I was.

That time of the month...

I hate that one week before I start my period and I want to eat anything and everything in front of me, behind me and to the sides of me...Why??? Don't we have enough to deal with just being a woman?
I had a bad day Tuesday and craved, hell I don't know what I craved I just wanted to eat, anything, but when I did of course I wasn't satisfied...so what did I do? I kept eating and was still not satisfied. So I am going on Thelma's diet today!!! BUT...I am going to get some exercise in too!!!
I have my duct tape ready

as soon as I put my candy corn away, which by the way I can have 22 pieces for 3 points on weight watchers. Okay candy corn put away.
Heres to a new day!!!!!

Don't miss it

on tonight...Jen called and said while watching the Biggest Loser I will probably want to eat a bunch of junk so I am gearing up to be strong. Can't wait to watch it!!!

Weigh in

I weighed in on Sunday...I weighed in in my underwear because I was going to wear jeans that day and did not want to weigh in with jeans on. Wendi cracked up laughing and Pete came and held my towel so if Matt walked out of his room he would not be scarred for life if he saw his mom in her underwear. The weigh in went okay, I lost one pound and I am back down to the 150's. I weighed in at 159 but I will take it. Pete did not have such a good week but it wasn't that bad. Here's to having a great week and staying on track!!!

Beached whale...

I have decided that if I could change my fat front to the junk in my trunk I would be pretty much okay. I have been having a hard time setting for very long because my butt is too boney. I can feel my butt bones on the chair and it hurts after awhile especially on a hard chair. Then it is hard to get up and walk because I am sore. Geeez what is that all about? I know I still have about 30 pounds to go...what's a girl to do?

Oh, and I have been a bad girl. I went out with my daughter, my 2 nieces, my nephew in law and some of their friends for dinner. Of course we all had dessert...red velvet cake. Then...my daughter takes me to dinner tonight and what...I had a pozookie. Okay, not so much looking forward to weigh in this week-end. ; )

Still on track...

...and loving black. I love how black clothes make you look so much better.
But on the down side it's black, no fun colors and personality.
I am feeling better and have more energy.
Looking forward to weigh-in on Sunday.
I am woman, I am strong!!!
Pete and I are back on track and working hard to fit some exercise in.
Biggest Loser has been very inspiring.
I just bought Bob Harper's new book "Are you ready"
So I am hoping it will keep the inspiration going.
I still have 30 to 35 pounds to go.

Weigh in...


Pete and I started a new page for our weigh ins. From the first page Pete lost 25 pounds and I have lost 15. Pete is 270 and I am 160. So we start a new page and get motivated all over again. We talked about how changing our diet has helped us but now we have reached a plateau and we need to exercise too. We are trying to see how much we can lose by February 4th which will be the one year anniversary of Pete's heart attack.

We went for a fast walk last night and walked for about 30 minutes. That is a good start. I am also working in the garage and making it into a workout room. I am still debating on getting the malibu pilates chair or the treadmill. Pete has the elipticle which I don't like as much because the balls of my feet go numb when I use it. But the weather is still nice so we can still work out side until I decide.

To be young again...

While in Nebraska visiting Jen and Layla while Jeremy was deployed was so much fun...How could you not just love this little munchkin. Let me tell you, this little munchkin in her car seat/carrier was a real workout.
We went shopping and had a great time but this old body was not used to toting the carrier around, putting her in the car and out of the car. It was so much fun to be with them, even with the workout of getting in and out of the car.
Thanks for putting up with old grama. I had a great time and got a great workout all in one. Just to let you know I would carry her all over again.
