It's getting hard right now...

Now that tax season is getting closer and closer, Frank is working longer and longer into the wee hours of the morning and he is becoming a grouch.  I don't blame him, he is sooooooo tired and I know the feeling.  He doesn't mean to be mean, it is just hard during this time for all of us.  Working out is going to be difficult for him right now, so we just hope he at least stays the same during this time.  Not only does he commute 30 minutes to his teaching job, but after he gets back, he takes a mini power nap and then goes in to work for his brother's CPA firm.  Bummer.  I am going to have to go to the gym by myself and I have not done that.  I just need April 15 to get here as soon as possible!  Sad  I have added some photos to my albums, so check those out!  I still need a full length, but my daughter is asleep at this time and she is the only one who can take it at this time.

YES!

I am so thrilled for the comments to my last blog.  I still have a good ways to go and I want to be there for those of you who continue on this path!  You all inspire me and I also want to be a source of inspiration!  I took a dear old friend for a walk today and she loved it!  She is retired and about 72 years old.  I ran a lap and then walked one with her.  WE then walked around her neighborhood.  It was great to hear her tell me she could see a difference in me.  Slow and steady wins the race!  It may take me a year to get where I need to be, but at least a year from now I will not look back and say..." I wish I had..."  I KNOW I CAN, and I know you all can too!  Hugs and Kisses and keep up the great work!

I don't want this to end...

I have noticed several countdowns to the end of the million pound matchup.  It makes me a bit sad.  I hope we can still continue doing this internet thing, because I have not been able to stay on a diet this long in over 15 years!  This experience has truly been motivational!  I know I will continue doing this, and hope you all do, too!  Maybe they can create a "convention" show where everyone who has a site can attend.  Kind of like they do with their 'traveling" group to different places, but just one convention.  Oh well.  Maybe one day we can all meet!  That would be so much fun!  Ya'll take care and I will do an extra mile tonight just to show my appreciation!  Hugs!
 
Talk To You Later!

Oscar Night!

 Oscar Red Carpet 1 Well, I know all of us are looking more and more glamorous!  I plan on watching, but also doing some crunches in between the show.  I haven't been feeling too well, but I am now feeling better.  I hope everyone had a great week and I hope you have a better one next week!

Gotta Go Shopping!

Well, I took my sugar level today and it was high.  Then I took my husbands, and it was higher than mine!  He isn't even a diagnosed diabetic!  Now he and I are worried!  I am going to shop for some Dreamfields pasta products, as I have heard they can lower your sugar levels or at least keep them steady.  I already eat whole grain bread, but I believe the baked lays and the plain baked potatoes are the culprit.  I guess I just need to go buy a diabetic cookbook just to be on the safe side.   It's just a bummer.  Oh well, lots of love and hugs!

Long time no blog!

Don't know what came over me, but I forgot to blog again!  I have been doing great with exercise and my eating, but I think I have stalled in weight loss.  I still have until Sunday to lose some more, but I know water is my main problem, or lack of!  I just am hoping for a no gain, possible loss this week.  I may need to rethink my points and lower them a bit.  Oh well, we'll see.  Ciao!

Sorry about the html code...

Well, I guess my html code didn't work in my blog.  Bummer.  It was so cute, too!  Oh well... Step AerobicsHope it works now! 

Worked out this morning...

I tivo'd some workouts and tried them out this morning.  Wow!  I feel like a wimp compared to the teams that Jillian and Bob are training!  I am just glad I only have 10 more pounds until I break out of the 200's!  Well, I wish all of you well, and keep "hopping" towards your goals!

Johnny Carinos

My husband and I went to Carino's last night   and I had the rosemary chicken with new potatoes.  It was very delicious and I had saved up my points for it.  I am so excited that I am having self control!  Normally, I would have ordered the spicy shrimp and chicken which is loaded with creamy goodness or the jalapeno garlic tilapia, again loaded in creamy buttery deliciousness!  I left there satisfied and proud of myself!  This morning I am having some yogurt with almonds just to counter any extra fat from last night.  Well, hope all is well with everyone else!  Hugs!

Happy Valentine's Day!  I had a wonderful day!  I also want to let you all know that there is a fat free yogurt ice cream type of thing that is banana split flavor by Blue Bell Ice Cream that is OH MY GRAVY, DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  It came in handy today!  You must try it if you are counting points!  It's only 2 points!  And, by the way, I stuck to my points today!  Major milestone in my life!  Normally, I would say, "ehhh....this is a special occasion...I can stuff my face today and start my diet again tomorrow..."  NOT THIS TIME, BABY!  Hope everyone else was strong today!  Keep up the great work, everyone!  HUGS!  Red heartRed heartRed heartRed heartRed heartRed heartRed heartRed heartRed heart

Workouts a blast, now!

My size 18s are baggy now!  Wink I have to roll the waist down in order for them to stay on!  Surprised Woo woo!  I don't want to shop for clothes just yet, but I may have to if this keeps going!  And it will!  Working out is really helping my stamina at work and at play!  I can stay on the treadmill for 30 minutes at an incline of 4.  This is big for me since I was a NON-MOVER before this!  My students are noticing the change in me as well.  They are wonderful kids.  By the way, my Principal's mom is still very critical and may not make it.  I have decided that life is too short to worry about observations.  I should cherish every moment I have with my family as my
Principal is doing with hers.Sad  Poor thing.  I am now going to do my 212 crunches so my gutt gets a workout, too!

Dreaded Mondays...

Well, my principal's step mom is very sick, so my observation window came and went.  That's two weeks in a row.  I feel bad for her and her mom but it also takes an emotional toll on me as well.  Sleepless nights, tossing and turning, etc...    I just need to thank my lucky stars that my mom is healthy and just grin and bare it.   I did cut my hair really short, so I will have to post that picture soon.   Hope everyone is doing great!  Hugs to all!Left hugRed heartRight hug

Rough Week at Work

Well, this week was pretty tough.  I am in my teacher observation "window" and it gets stressful.  I have been doing pretty good with my meals and exercise, but my sleep has suffered a bit.  It is about 6 pm right now and I think I am going to go to bed early.  Maybe I will go for a walk before.  I hope everyone is doing great.  I haven't been hopping to your sites as diligently as I want, but it will get better by the end of this new week.  Ciao, "losers"!  Hugs!

Ooops...I fell off the wagon!

Well, darn.  I visited my friend at the country club where I pick up my daughter after golf, and she bought me some smoked salmon.  WEll, it came with cream cheese and bread and it was delicious!  Unfortunately, I ate until I was stuffed.  Confused  Now I feel bad, but I think I can get back on track easily.  It is just a bummer that I would even do that.  I always sabotage myself.  Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!   Tomorrow is a new day.  You all stay on target!  Hugs!

The Arms...the arms....

Arggghhhh!  My arms!  When will the soreness go away!  Just got back from Gold's and feel like a million bucks, actually.  Pain is worth it and I can see it in my clothes.  They fit just a bit looser!  Woo Woo!  Chat at ya'll later!

Bye Bye Jackie!!!

I am so glad Jackie got voted off!  When she asked the guys to swear on their daughters' lives, she crossed the line!  The guys were put in a bad position.  The guys should have said, "we never swear on our families lives" and then blind side her anyway.  Oh well, I will blog later after our workout tonight!  Ya'll have a great humpday!  It is the 100th day of school here in Midland!  Woo Woo!

Go New York!

What a game!  I was on the edge of my seat throughout the whole thing!  I am normally a Redskins fan, but since they weren't in it, I chose the underdog!  Dog face  Hope everyone had a great week!

Happy Ground Hog Day!

Happy Groundhog's Day!  I guess he saw his shadow?  Here in Midland, he would have!  Anyway, workouts have been brutal and we go back today to work on legs.  We were told to only work on arms one day, legs the next and so on.  Have you all heard of such a thing?  Oh well, best of luck to all of you and we'll chat at ya later!
