Generic Weight Watchers.....

I have decided that I am going to rejoin Weight Watchers.  I hate spending out the money, but maybe that will make me more accountable.  What do you think?

The last time that I joined I was allowed 29 points per day, so I started back today (hence the term generic weight watchers cause it isn't official yet).  I am only going to allow my 29 points a day until I go back to the real meetings.  Maybe I will start to see some lbs lost in that time.

I had a Smartone for breakfast and lunch, and I plan on having a Smartone for dinner.  That is unless I can get the Hubster to fix me something.  Since he is on the juice detox he doesn't really cook anything anymore. I mean, he fixes the kids pasta and a few things like that, but nothing major.

I just walked my mile.  It takes me a while to walk a mile.  I am not sure why I am so slow.  You would think that I would be getting quicker, but I don't think that I am.  :-(

I am so glad that it is Friday.  It has been a long week.  Well, I would be super excited that it is Friday but I have to work either tonight and/or tomorrow to make up for taking Monday off.  But I had a great day Monday so I am not going to begrudge myself that day.

Time to go get the kiddos and start this weekend!

These little piggies..........

thursday things2
Borrowing idea from:  http://www.livinglaughinglosing.com/





Took off wok an hour early to get me a pedicure.  Aren't they cute?  It has been about a year since I have had one, so I am excited.  Thank you Sherry Ball!  :-)


I had another bad day of eating.  It started out with a no bake cookie for breakfast, but that finished them off.  :-(  I told the Hubster NOT to be making anymore of them anytime soon cause I inhale them.

I am just not sure how serious I am about losing weight.  I mean, I want to lose weight, but if I was serious, wouldn't I be losing weight?  I wonder if the problem is just me?  If it is just in my head because I just can't seem to stick to any weight lose plan.

There is a Weight Watchers meeting next Thursday at the local bank, so I am seriously thinking about going to it.  I have done WW's twice and I did good both times.  But then I thought "Well, since I am doing good, I don't need to attend the meetings anymore".  Wrong!  It wasn't long before the weight was back on.  So I need to make a plan to stick to the plan.  No over (or under) thinking it. 

20 Things About ME:
1.  I love no bake cookies.
2. I never cut my toe nails, so when I go for my pedicure, my toe nails are all crazy.
3. I love to watch people dance although I can't dance a lick unless I am drunk.
4. I have not been drunk in like 12 years!
5. Amaretto sours are my favorite drinks and I always get one when I go on a business trip.
6. Reading is one of my favorite things to do, but I very seldom get to read a book.
7. I have four children (11, 9, 7, and 4).
8. I sleep on my right side.
9. I am a Pepsi fiend.
10. I know alot of people but I have few true friends.
11. I can't say NO.  I always get stuck doing things that I don't want to do because of that.
12. I rode a bike for the first time in a long time the other day.
13. I am very shy although most people would never say that about me.
14. I am suppose to wear glasses but I very seldom do.
15. I am afraid to wear contacts because I am afraid they will get stuck in my eyes!  lol
16. I despise doing laundry.
17. I am the baby of the family.
18. I had my first kiss at the age of 13 (kind of late I know)!
19. I want to be a scrapbooker when I grow up.
20. I love taking pictures!

Hope you learned something about me!  That was kind of hard to come up with 20 random facts about myself!

Weigh in Wednesday a bust.............

 




To say that I am utterly and completely disgusted in an understatement.  WTH is wrong with me?  Seriously?  WTH is wrong with me? 

April 11, 2013-188.8.  

April 24, 2013-197.2 lbs.  

That is almost 10 lbs in two weeks.  HOW does anyone do that?  

It's not like I am on my period and have a weight gain from that.  I am just a fat ass I guess.  I am seriosuly so disappointed with the scales this week.  Who's fault is this? No ones but mine.  How do I manage to not lose weight but to keep gaining? 

I guess it is all those times that I have ate out in the last week. And the no bake cookies that hubster made which I have been gobbling down like there's no tomorrow.

I have got to get back on track.  I am just not sure how.  Nothing I do seems to work.  :'(  Any advise is greatly appreciated!

Do you know how you set you goals for 10 years (when you are 18)?  Well, I did that.  I meet all my goals.  Not exactly in the ways that I had planned to meet them, but at the end of the day, they were meet.  I feel like such a failure not being able to meet this goal.  Why, oh, why does losing weight have to be so darn hard?

Wish me luck on this journey cause I really need it...

I know it's a little late, I am not sure when Jake and Holly posted this, not sure how the picture links to the page for others (hence the link below it) but I am going to do it anyway!  lol


1. I laughed so hard I cried when...I was on vacation with my family and we were in the hotel room.  My husband had just came in from outside and there was a bug on his shoulder.  I said spider and pointed to his shoulder nad he seriously started screaming like a girl, flailing his arms all around in the air.  PRICELESS!!!!!


2. My high school... was very small.  Everyone knew everyone. 


3. It really pisses me off... people lie to me, and they KNOW I KNOW they are lying! 


4. In ten years... 44.  I can't believe it!  I can remember when I thought 20 was old and over the hill!


5. If I could erase one thing … it would be any and all unhappiness that my children have to face. 


6. In 1999... I was married and getting ready to have my first daughter Alexis. 


7. Honestly... I love doing blogs.  I am not sure if anyone reads them, but it is a way for me to express some of my "excess" energy (like I have that much).  ;)


8. To me, Sushi... is gross!  It makes me think of fish guts. 


9. Someone really needs to invent...a time travel machine.  Oh the fun I could have. 


10. The first time I drank alcohol...I was about 16 years old and my cousin snuck me one when we ran to the store for his parents.  


11. The one question I would ask God is...whats so special about me?


12. Lindsay Lohan...poor Lindsay!


On a more serious note, I have not done well at all with my healthy eating.  I think that I am destined to be chunky cause I can't seem to do it.   :'(

Wish me lots of luck.  There is always tomorrow and that is what I keep telling myself.  I'ma gonna get this thing under control tomorrow.
