Profile Information

About Me:
I am a working mother with a 17 month old. I had lost 25 pounds on weight watchers right before I found out I was pregnant. Breastfeeding was good for me and got me within 4 pounds of pre-baby weight. I haven't been very good since then of losing any non-baby weight. I am tired of being the fat girl and can barely look in the mirror these days. I have noticed that most pictures I take of my daughter have her and her daddy. I don't want my picture made. I don't want to be like that anymore!

Never turn 30!

Ever since I have turned 30 I have been nothing but sick. Since my last post I had a bacterial infection where I thought I was going to die for a bit. I was almost put in the hospital. I didn't eat for days. So, I got better and then a few days later I develop this nausea and diarrhea thing. I could barely eat anything for almost a week. One night I ate half of a hamburger and I felt like I had eaten Thanksgiving dinner. My stomach was not right!! By the time I went to the dr. all of my symptoms… Continue

Man O Man!

After getting sick I kind of lost my ummph to make good decisions. Unlike times in the past I have "gone off the wagon for a bit" I didn't go too crazy. Before if I thought I had messed up I would eat whatever and set another "start date". This time I knew I was just being lazy and that I would get back on program. I for the most part tried to make ok decisions even though I wasn't counting points. I actually got on the scale today and lost weight! I am almost to 15 pounds!!! I am going to break… Continue

I'm Back!

I have MIA lately. I am getting over strep. Yuck! I couldn't eat for days. Hopefully my body doesn't think that it is starving. I am down 13 pounds total this morning!!!! I am beginning to see the signs of change in my eating habits and thoughts. Last week at work there was cake for someone's birthday and I decided I love cake and I am going to have a piece because I can. I choose to eat this cake. I didn't feel guilty about it afterwards. I enjoyed every bite of it. Little did I know it would b… Continue

Tired

I am soooo tired this week. When I am tired and can't go to sleep I just wanna eat! I am down 8.4 pounds total!!!!! I would have hoped for more by now but I am making good habits in the process. I feel like I am developing a lifestyle. Luckily we don't have a lot of money to blow on eating out which helps. I did go out to eat for my husbands birthday and had a piece of cake. Gotta go feed the little one dinner. Hope this next week is as good as the rest!!!

Weigh In

Well, I only lost .6 this week. I am not discouraged though. Like Roni said "persistence not perfection". I know I did the best I could this week. I'm sure it will show up on the scale soon enough. I do have a big birthday party Saturday night. I am not going to overindulge but I will be indulging!!! I have been making great choices and really listening to my inner dialog. Sometimes the mouth wants something and the stomach doesn't. If I get busy with something for a little bit then it usually g… Continue

A girl from The 'Gee, huh? (That's what our group of friends call it anyway. hehe) It's all a really good area. I love it. I used to have to burn up the Turner Turnpike for concerts, but won't have to now with the BOK Center. That will be nice!

Congrats on not eating out. I'm still going strong too. I don't even miss it surprisingly. I've been cooking some GOOD food!

Apparently, it's confusing how I type my food list. On another post, someone else thought I had 11 sloppy joes. Now that would be a lot of food!
