Thanksgiving

Thursday, November 27th 2008

Well, Thanksgiving is here. My goal was to lose 7 pounds by this day and be 141. Today, my weight is 246.6. So what happened.

Sunday night, I began to feel some pain in my stomach. I thought I was hungry. My husband and I went to dinner at my father-in-laws home. I ate salad and garlic chicken. I was still feeling hungry, so I helped myself to a little bit more.

When we got home, I was still feeling very hungry. So I had some turkey dogs. Then, I began to feel worse. I woke u...

Success!!!!

Friday, November 21st 2008

I stepped on the scale this morning to see how I was doing on my 7 pound challenge by Thanksgiving. This morning, on my bathroom scale, I was 240.2 I haven't seen that number is a very long time. In fact, I can't remember when I last saw that number. But since the goal was to weigh 241 by Thanksgiving, should I still keep this goal or should I say I've achieved it. Thanksgiving is a week away and I could gain 2 pounds by then.

It is very easy to stick to this plan as long as I am losin...

The Dog

Tuesday, November 18th 2008

I had to take my dog to the vet this morning. Last night, when I came home, she was limping. I checked her paw, thinking a thorn might be in there, but it was clear. She wasn't supporting any weight on it. But it didn't seem to hurt her. She usually jumps up on the bed at night. This morning, when I woke up, she was still on the floor.

So, I went to work out, came home and she was still in the same spot. She didn't come to the door to greet me.

The vet said she has a torn ACL. ...

Catching Up

Monday, November 17th 2008

Well, I can honestly say that I'm am still committed to losing weight. This weekend, Saturday was harder to hit my burn calorie target. Sunday, I was able to go to the gym, rake a bunch of leaves up in the back yard, finish the housework, and get the laundry done. If the weather is nice, I'm happy to go outside and get some fresh air and do something to burn calories, pull weeds, rake leaves, whatever. But if teh weather is raining or their is snow on the ground, I'm going to have to think a...
