About Me:
I have been married for 3 years to a wonderful husband. For the past what seems like forever we have been trying to conceive. I am hoping that weight loss will help us in that department! What else, I have a degree in early childhood education but I work as a payroll manager for a great company. I love to cook, and religiously make lists. To do lists, grocery lists, menu lists. You name it and I have a list for it. I am hoping that this blog will help me stay focused to make it past my notorious 2 week failure point on a diet. So here we go....

Still Here...

Ok so I haven't posted in a while. I am still here however. Dragging myself to the gym early in the morning and still barely losing any weight. For August I only had a total of 12 days that I worked out. Already last week I totaled 4 for September so far. Hopefully it will make a difference. I think I need to tighten down on the eating. I am just (VERY) losely doing points. I am thinking that maybe I should go and actually join weight watchers and go to the meetings. I don't know what it is abou… Continue

Doctor Appointment

This is a copy of the post I put on the Losing Weight Before Baby Group Discussion. Ok so here it goes. Yesterday I went to the fertility doctor. Now, I was under the impression (given to me by my OB/GYN) that this doctor could help treat my PCOS symptoms: excess facial hair, thinning scalp hair, weight gain, absent AF, etc. and then we would have better chances of conceiving once we got that under control. Man was I wrong. First they weighed me, and took blood pressure. I gave them copies of m… Continue

No particular reason other than I have a lot to do and tend at times like this put stress on myself. Trying to do my usual stuff, set up new employees and train some administrators on our new… Continue

Lunch...What is it about lunch?

Let's just talk about lunch for a minute. What is it about lunch that makes me neeeed to get out of this office! Maybe it is the gray walls, the gray carpet, chairs, file cabinet, desk...well the desk is cream but you get the idea. By the time lunch rolls around it does not matter what I have in the fridge for the day, I just need to get the heck out of here! So I end up going out to eat. And make no mistake, getting out for a walk is not a possibility. This is the SOUTH, it is like 200 degrees… Continue
