Just wanted to do a quick check in. I managed to lose the 3 lbs of water weight from last week plus another pound. So as of Friday, I'm down 10 lbs since 1/1!! I'm pretty excited about it.

I ordered an eliptical the other day and it came over the weekend. Bryan already set it up for me and I was on it for 30minutes today. I feel great and I'm more than motivated to keep this going!

Tonight for dinner I made Amy Smith's chinese egg rolls - so delicious. I highly suggest you try them...Emily, since I think you are the only one reading this blog anyway!! LOL!

HAVE A GREAT WEEK!

Can I just say that being a woman really SUCKS sometimes.

I'm in a mood, PMSing and I've been hungry all day. I was doing well until I got home and it went down hill from there. The bad thing is that I overate knowing that I have the weigh in at work tomorrow. Why did I let my PMSing get in the way of weight loss?? It's like this inner monster comes out and tells you you need that cookie! LOL!

So I weigh in tomorrow, we will see. I just want to get this weight off and sometimes it feels like it's just going to take forever.

I'm off to go exercise and hopefully work off some of the damage.

Well, I survived yesterday's Super Bowl party at my house. But I made the mistake of hopping on the scale this morning to check out the damage. Not pretty - not pretty at all. I'm also waiting for my monthly visitor who is adding to this not so nice weight. I know once Friday's weigh in rolls around, it will be better. I'm focused and I know that I really shouldn't be weighing myself more than once a week.

This morning, I had a nice bowl of fruit salad with some NS granola sprinkled on it. Lunch was chicken soup, now I'm onto drinking lots of water until dinner time.

I have no idea what I'm doing for dinner. I have a ton of leftover SHIT food here. I'm torn because I hate to see food go to waste, but it's also not good for my waistline. So I may just have to suck it up and come to terms with the fact that all the goodies are going in the garbage. :(

I have off on Monday's. I love it, nothing beats a 3 day weekend. It gives me some quality time with the baby which is wonderful. But it also sometimes leads to snacking when I get bored. I kicked and screamed when I had to go back to work. Begged my husband to work 15 jobs in order to support us so I could stay home. Now, I have to be honest and say that I don't think I could stay home 5 days a week. I love the socialization for one thing, but I think I probably would have been 30 lbs heavier if I were home all this time. But shhh, I don't want him to know that otherwise I'll be working forever - one of these days I would love to try the stay at home thing - when the kids are in college!! LOL!

Here I am, the one that you love....

LOL!

I'm back again....I miss this blogging thing and it seems as though I've been pretty serious about this weight loss thing the past month! So why not try to gain some extra support from my online friends??

I'm amazed at how my body has changed since having the baby. I thought that I would lose the weight pretty quickly. Here I am a year later and my hips are HUGE. I definitely have my work cut out for me and that's ok. I know I can do and be thin again. Right now, I'm chunky. :)

So I started my diet on 1/1/08 and I'm happy to report that I am down 9 lbs since then! We are doing the biggest loser contest at work and it's been great. Each week someone from the office weighs us in and it keeps us all accountable. Whoever loses the least at the end of each week has to pay. The winner at the end wins the $. I would love that for some new clothes.

This was a tough week for me, I lost 1 lb, but I also lost my 92 year old grandmother. He health had been failing for quite some time. But she passed peacefully on Sunday morning in her sleep. I'm so thankful for that....she deserved to go that way. I know she's in a happier place now!

Anyway, I feel as though I'm babbling here...I'll get the hang of this again!

I'm excited to be back and lend support to all my fellow LOSERS!!!

XO!
