STUCK

143. That is what I weighed this morning...UGH. I know I should be proud of that number because I went a week with eating whatever I wanted but I want to get to 141 soooo bad I can't stand it. I have been really good this week so hopefully it will pay off next week. If not I will have to reevaluate a few things and try something else. Oh well...Kind of bummed.

So I have been MIA from writing but it has been for a good reason. I was on a mission trip to NYC. I had an awesome time and miss the kids like crazy.

I haven't been able to weigh myself still because I don't have a battery for our scale (I got one today and will weigh in the AM). I am a little nervous about weighing because I didn't follow WW's at all on my trip. It was really nice to eat what ever I wanted and not count points but I we did a lot of walking every day.

On to other things...I went to target today on my lunch break and found a really cute dress for 7.50....thats right, 7.50. I wish I had a wedding to go to so I could wear it but I am going to wear it to work tomorrow. I also got a pair of sandals for 4.00. I am a little embarrassed to say this but they are Kids shoes and that is why they were so cheap.

Well until I step on the scale again...B!

Trying to Make some $$$$, while spending a little ;)

So I am going on a trip to NYC this Friday... I am super excited that I get to go play with childern for a week, celebrate culture and worship God. I am a little low on the spending money fund so I thought I would get some of my old clothes (that are TOO BIG for me now) and take them to our local Fashion Shack to cash them in. I have never done this before but I am hoping to get some money out of it. Can't hurt right?!?!?! Well while I was there, I was looking through the clothes and found a really cute dress for $10.00 then I saw a sign that if you sent a text message to a certain number you would receive $5.00 off (only for first time users) so I sent the text and got the dress for whooping $5.60. I love getting good deals on clothes.

On to other things...I havent been able to weigh my self this week because the battery in our scale died...or I dropped it..Who knows. I will write about that once it gets fixed.

Love, B.

Skinny Jeans

I just wanted to write that today I am wearing a size 8 jeans. They are cropped skinny leg jeans from Old Navy and I am super excited to be able to wear them...plus I got them for a whopping 8.99! Gotta love deals. Hope you are having a wonderful day.

Love, B.

Back On Track

I am getting back on track with my weight loss goal. Just hit a bump in the road, got over and now I am back on track. I am back down to 143. I am hoping that when I step on the scale next week that it will say 141 (or at least 142). I have been stuck around this weight for a while now...well it at least seems that way.

Any who on to other goals...I have a friend that would like me to start writing more on my blog (I won't name any names) but I am going to try and write more often. It might not always be about my weight lost but I will try to make it interesting.

The hubby and I are going to look at floor plans on Saturday. I am so excited about this and I am excited to get this adventure rolling. Please pray that we do not kill each other in the process.

Until tomorrow ;) Love, B

Being Honest with my self...and the world

I havent had a good week with the weight loss. I gained two pounds and tried to blame it on my "women issue that comes once a month" but who am I kidding. It probably doesnt help that I ate Waffle House at 11:30 at night (a double order of hash browns will do that do you, but it was oh so good), plus the wonderful food that I had at a cookout, PLUS the wonderful food I had at my in-laws on fathers day. So here goes a new goal for me...I usually don't stick to my points on the weekends as strict as I do during the week. SO this weekend I am going to stick to my usual 20 points and see how that goes. I know I can do it and I WILL DO IT. I am so close to my next goal that I need to do it. I want to start walking, but it is really hot here and it doesnt make it fun when you can't breathe after walking only a few steps. I am hoping to reach my next goal before I go to NYC on a mission trip the first week of July. I think...NO I KNOW I CAN DO THIS. SO when I post again, I will have some good news to share about my wonderful weight LOSS.

Love, B.

I have started again with writing down what I am eating...boy it is hard to track EVERYTHING. But I know I have to if I want to get to my goal fast. This is what I ate today~
Breakfast: Coffee with Sugar Free Vanilla Creamer and a fiber one bar.
Lunch: Tuna Salad (1 can of chunk white tuna in water, relish, mayo, and mustard), Special K crackers, zucinni and squash.
Dinner: Salad with Italian dressing and a little bit of shredded Parmesan cheese, 1 cup pasta noodles, and 1 cup meat sauce. Oh and I can't forget the few bites of yummy watermelon. I could have eaten the whole thing. All of this came to about 18.5 points. I wish I could afford to do WW's online but I have done pretty good on my own so far.

I weighed myself on Saturday and I have lost another pound. 2 more until I go blond and 16 until my tattoo. My hubby and I were talking and I need another goal in between those. I do a lot better with little goals. I just don't know what I would do/get to reward myself...once I figure that out I will post it.

Love, B
