Slack

Ok, so I've been a little slack in working with my blog. Actually STILL waiting on a certain person to help me with it, however, I'm never available so I can't blame her.

Update on weight loss. I've only lost 9 pounds in 11 weeks. Not what I expected but losing it slowly is better then losing alot at one time. I dont't run as big a risk of gaining it back. I have fallen into a bad eating process again so I will work on it AFTER Thanksgiving.

I hope everyone that reads my blog has a safe and happy Thanksgiving.

Week 6

I only lost .6 pounds this week but I am still happy. A loss is a loss, no matter how much. I plan to exercise a bit more, was kind of lazy this week.

weight loss

Its been awhile since I posted. I have been so busy with swaps that I cant catch my breathe. Anyway, I started my weigh loss regiment. Right now all I am doing is portion control, lots of water and a little bit of exercise.

I have lost 7 pounds in 5 weeks. I just imagine what I would have lost if I had exercised harder. I have 42 more ponds to go to reach " a normal weight", but I dont think its going to happen. I will make 10 pound goals. Right now, I have 3 more pounds to reach my first goal, then its on to the next 10 pounds.

Changing directions

I have been gaining weight like crazy over the past few years. I always shrug it of and say, "it's because I sit all day at work" "it's not what I eat". Well, I've realized it is not only what I eat but what I DON"T do.

I signed back up to a probram called TOPS - Talk Off Pounds Sensibly. Very nationally know. Been around longer then WW. Anyway, I have started keeping a Food Journal to see how well I do with the eating. I will be using my blog as an outlet for my hunger frustrations.

I wanna be like The Pink Stamper. Man has she lost weight.

Excitement

Good morning everyone! I wanted to say to you this morning that I have now joined another crafting group. Seems I have so many crafts to do, I feel like I'm not appreciating them like I should. I have met some wonderful artisans and believe me, I'm not one of them, but want to be just like them when I grow up.

Enjoy your visit to my blog, come back soon; you never know what you might learn about me or can HELP me with.

What do you get?

Well I'm back from a short stay in Florida. My daughter and I took my grand daughter (2) to the beach at Perdido Key. Had a great time, she loved it. We did everything possible to protect her from the sun and to enjoy her time there; baby sunscreen, umbrella, more sunscreen, bucket and shovel, water, hunting shells, the whole nine yards.

So, the answer to my question "What do you get" - when you add 90+ degrees, warm water, bright sunshine, white sandy beach, and NO SUNSCREEN? You got it! Burn baby burn. No, not the grand baby, ME and my daughter. We were so focused on making sure Addison was taken care of that we omitted to take care of ourselves.

Pictures will be posted soon. Also pictures of some ABC swaps I'm hosting.

Until next time.
