Back

I haven't felt very bloggy lately, but I'm still around. I haven't been eating too well. I did okay today, so hopefully I can get going full speed soon. My kids really dissappointed me today. They were supposed to have read a book by today, and about half of them failed the test. While this group seems better behaved and smarter, they just about refuse to read. I've got letters ready to go to parents so hopefully this will get their attention as reading is the most important thing we will do al… Continue

Better!

The fall break totally renewed me! We have a saying at school that teachers are given a break right before they are to the point of killing students. I had a good day at school. The beginning of the nine weeks always seems better. It's less rushed, and the kids seem excited about new material and fresh starts. I'm also a little ahead thanks to the time that I put in on Monday and Tuesday to grade and make out tests and worksheets. I've been on point for the past two days. I'm finally feeling in… Continue

Warning: Lots of Complaining Ahead

This is basically nothing but a list of complaints, so if you're looking for something positive, skip to the end, and I'll try to think of something positive to put there. Well, my eating has been terrible. I can't believe I've gone from being so totally committed to really being awful. I'm still making myself weigh as I promised myself I would when I went off track so that I would be held accountable. In the mornings when I weigh, it does motivate me, but by evening, I'm so down that I… Continue

Nine Weeks Test

I'm still alive. However, it's nine weeks test week, so you won't be hearing too much from me. Lots of grading going on! My eating has been bad. Hopefully I can get back on track on my days off.

Emotional eating but back on track

Well after so many compliments on not cracking due to stress, I finally cracked. On Thursday, I knew I was going to eat an off plan meal, and I couldn't decide between pizza and Mexican food. The husband decided on Mexican food. So of course Friday night, I then had to have the pizza. Luckily by Saturday I got back on track for the most part. After having these cheat meals get out of control in the past and lasting for weeks, I decided to make myself weigh even when I knew it wouldn't be pretty.… Continue

We miss you!! Hope everything is okay. I know it is a stressful time, so I hope you have a moment to look back to your plan for dealing with stress and your ideas from the beginning of the year. Think about what you will be saying next August about how your year went. Think of how great it will be to say "you know what, it was stressful, but I pulled through and my health didn't suffer!"

How ya doing this week, my friend? Your comment about the wrinkle cracked me up. For me, it's my 20 or so gray hairs. To me, they are so obvious, but others say they can't see them... liars. :)

Thanks for the link. I checked it out and everything. I have an appt with my dr today to see about getting in to a nutritionist and finding out what the deal is. I will go from there I guess.

Points? Do you mean calories or as in Weight Watchers points? That does sound yummy!
