The Weight of My Weight

I have not talked to my mom about me sharing her medical issues on my blog, but I suppose if I am going to blog about spending two days in the waiting room, I should ask her if it is okay so I can tell you all about it. I’ll get on that…….tomorrow. 🙂 I did a TERRIBLE job of drinking water, and a TERRIFIC job of drinking coffee, and then I had some MORE coffee, and I never did exercise yesterday morning!! Breakfast Lunch Dinner Snack (and an un-pictured apple and one more Latte) Refresh…I can eat 26 points a day.I can earn Activity Points by doing exercise, and eat them if I choose.I have an allowance of 49 points that I can dip into if I chose. I should drink a minimum of 6 (8 oz) glasses of water each day. The food I ate and it’s PPV […]

It’s been a crazy couple of days and I’m still experiencing my little anxiety spells, but so far I haven’t ordered a Family Size Pizza for myself, so I think I’m gonna get through it! I had only known about the Blogging Conference for a few days, but I was filled with excitement anticipating all of the things I was going to learn over the weekend and all of the fellow bloggers I was going to get to meet! Thursday night I went to the first event of the “Go Blog Social” Conference that I just learned about last week! I met all sorts of wonderful women and I was so looking forward to taking notes at all of the sessions on Friday and Saturday. I almost completely forgot to take pictures, but snapped a quick one on my way out! I was walking out with Amanda and Courtney, who […]

It’s a deep blog post…..even more personal than I usually write and a bit out of character for most of my blog post. But, it is me, and these are my thoughts. It’s been a crazy last few days inside my head with so many great things happening in my Blogging World and with Weight Watchers. It’s always crazy in my head, but unusually so these last few days. My thoughts are just ALL over the place. Sometimes my thoughts exhaust me, and I think that’s why I blog, or journal, or write it all down. If I didn’t write it down, it would never escape my head, and trust me, sometimes I need to let a lot of my thinking escape from my head. When I hit “submit”, it’s then, that I can breathe again. This blog post will be a bit all over the place today, but a […]

Okay, actually they sent me an email, so I replied, then they replied……and guess what???? I have a Phone Interview on Monday!!! Whoop Whoop!! I am super excited! Now I just need to remember to only have ONE cup of coffee before my interview so I don’t ramble on like I know I can do when I’m excited! I try not to post anything on my blog that I would regret later, but in case anyone at Weight Watchers Corporate wants to check out my blog, the pictures I recently posted in the blonde wig……we’re admittedly a bit creeeeepy!! A sense of humor is a good quality in an employee. Right? Did I mention I’m super excited?!?!?!?

I love a rainy day spent at home. I accomplished so many things on Monday, but unfortunately, I was so wrapped up in completing my list of task, and so cozy, neither grocery shopping OR exercising ever did happen, but a few things that shouldn’t have happened……did.

Slept in……took a walk, then took Tucker for a walk. Enjoyed a Late Breakfast with Mike. Piddled around the house….. Had a snack…… Then another…….. Then a friend wanted to walk, so sure, why not? Chatted on a friends deck with some other girlfriends and enjoyed the cool weather. Late Lunch with Mike. The relaxing day got away from me. By now it was almost 4:00 in the afternoon! Late Snack Even Later Dinner Fresh and Light!

The weather this weekend is the kind of weather I truly wish we had six months out of the year. I love the seasons and the variety of weather we have here in the Kansas City area, but there is nothing better than a weekend with the temperature in the 70’s and being able to enjoy morning coffee on the deck, morning or even afternoon or evening walks, and eating dinner outside with friends (and maybe a glass or two of wine). Something about this weather also puts me in a completely relaxed state of mind…..and the only real plans we had for the weekend were just that……relaxing plans. Nothing stressful to prepare for, no trip to pack for, no big obligations. I woke up Friday knowing it was going to be a great weekend, and I knew I was going to do whatever I felt like doing. Friday I […]

As I was driving to my Weight Watchers meeting on Friday morning, I decided that when I got there, I would take the “No Weigh In” pass. The last six weeks have been a pattern of lose, gain, lose, gain, lose……and I knew with last weeks BIG loss, that this week would likely be a gain, and I was still gloating about my weigh in of 156! For the first time in my four year weight loss process, I am really starting to feel “normal”. I just wanted to walk around knowing I weighed 156. When I walked into my meeting, a huge part of me felt like I was cheating if I skipped my weigh in, so I stripped off all of my jewelry, pee’d, exhaled (my usual weigh in procedure) and stepped on the scale. As expected, I was up a pound. Because of the pattern of the […]

…….spent hanging out on the deck with my coffee, some tunes (Mike finished staining the deck AND put new speakers outside!) and the dogs while they catch a few rays of sun before it gets too hot! Look at King Tucker taking over the cushion! He looks at me with Pride while Mishka pouts and looks in the other direction with disgust. They are ridiculous. Then out for a short 6 mile walk with some friends in the neighborhood!!We kept a great pace of 4.0 MPH and got in almost 10,000 steps! I came home from our walk and did my strength training while tripping over the dogs, who were BEGGING for a walk of their own. So I earned a few more activity points and walked my furry friends. 🙂 Breakfast Snack Lunch I had a little Rotisserie Chicken left, so I sautéed some Onions and Zucchini in 2 […]
