Our morning started off with a quiet cup of coffee, then my dad and stepmom came over for breakfast.

This is a test post. My blog App seems to be locked up 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 Breakfast = ? Snack = ? Lunch = ? Snack = ? Dinner = ? Total = ? Today’s Exercise = How many glasses of water I drank today = ? Activity Points Earned Today = ? Activity Points Earned This Week = ? Remaining points from my 49 Points Allowance = ? ALCOHOL consumption = NONE “love the life you live, live the life you love”

Today was my first big “No Drinking Day”. I wasn’t feeling as anxious about it as I thought I was going to, but more anxious about over eating while we all hung out and tailgated in the parking lot for a few hours. So I decided to try to eat smart, and as few points as possible before we left at 2:00 pm to PARTY! Eight of us climbed into a couple of cars and headed out to Arrowhead! As soon as we all climbed out of the car, we started setting up the grill, the snacks, and the coolers came out! Beers for everyone! I packed lots of bottles of water for me, and plenty to share. Any takers?? Nope. I swell up like crazy in the heat anyhow, so it felt good to know that wasn’t going to be an issue. We grilled, people watched, chatted….. (Worst Selfie […]

I really thought after the food choices, and the exercise, my loss would be more than 1.4, but I’ll take it. Current Weight…..162.6 Breakfast (Forgot to take my picture before I ate, but it was a Starbuck’s Skinny Latte and Watermelon and Grapefruit in the parking lot after my WW Meeting. I NEVER eat before a weigh in!!) Lunch I waited WAY too long to eat lunch. It was after 2:00 by the time I was done with my Friday errands, and all I could think about was my leftover Veggie Mac and Cheese, but the Mac and Cheese part was all I was really thinking about!! This serving is 9 PPV! I put it in the microwave while I put away groceries and chopped up the salad I had made at the salad bar. Then I decided to just pick out the veggies and enjoy some of that cheesiness […]

Weight Watchers Power Foods are basically fruits and veggies, whole grains, fat free dairy and lean meats. Eggs too! If your daily meal plan includes a good variety of these foods, you are almost guaranteed weight loss, and rarely will you feel hungry. Most likely if you ARE hungry? It’s time for you to eat a Power Food or drink some water! I have made a real effort to get lots of Power Foods in this week and drink lots of water and get my exercise in. I know tomorrow’s weigh in will be a success!! I had my final Post-op with the Doc today, and all is well. I’m not 100%, but that can take 6 to 12 months, and I am at 4 months post-op. He did say to proceed with all normal activities that are pain free. Boot Camp is a no go yet, so I plan […]

Yip. It’s a date I can’t forget. June 12, 1999. Mike and I and our four kids moved into our house. Mike and I were married in May of 1999, and our kids were still in school. Mike and his kids lived in Raymore, Missouri. Tess and I lived in Olathe, Kansas. Our house wasn’t finished being built yet, so with school still in session and no house to move into, we were each still living in the duplexes we had rented after we each had sold our homes. So the first month that we were married, we didn’t even get to live together!! It was super weird. I remember calling Mike and saying something stupid like…. “Hello Husband. How are things at YOUR house today?” But then the house was done, school was out, and it was finally time for all of us to blend together under one roof. […]
