We get to see Brandon today!!!! He was coming home last night and had car trouble so he turned around and went back to the dorm, so we are going to see him and check on his truck.

He had asked me to make him potato soup so I'm packing that up to take to him.

We took Brandon and Chris (his roomate) out for lunch to Johnny Carino's. I had the Chicken Marsala...it was reallllly good!

The truck turned out to be OK....he just hadn't driven it much since he moved in and it was raining so he didn't feel comfortable driving home....we had a nice visit, I'm glad we got to see him.

Went home and had chilli dogs for supper....so much for a BFL weekend!

Big Wedding Day

Our niece is getting married today. Clint is an usher and Sarah is one of the flower girls...they are both very excited.

Ran around all morning, getting Sarah's hair done and picking up flowers for the wedding. Got donuts and kolaches and managed to eat just one of each. We didn't eat again until the reception, that was Bar-B-Q, then one small piece of cake and one glass of champagne to toast the happy couple with. All in all not as bad as I expected!

The kids did fantastic in the wedding and had a ball....Sarah has started talking about what kind of wedding she wants to have...I think we are in trouble!!!

Friday 9/24/2004

I stayed home sick today...had a headache like you wouldn't believe!!! Spent most of the day in bed but did do some stretching. Didn't eat much of anything until supper then we went out to eat Mexican food. Went to a wedding rehearsal then came home and went back to bed!

Today was weigh-in day...down 1.5 lbs!!!

Current weight – 224 lbs.
Total weight lost – 18.5 lbs.

It's way to hard to enter all of last weeks meals so I'll just start posting them again and try to do better about keeping up!

The day started off really good, I got up and went to the gym, had a good workout and got home early. Then everything went downhill. I feel asleep on the couch last night and didn't pack food for today which should have been no problem but instead of working on that when I got home from the gym I sat down in front of the computer and next thing I know I'm running late. So I go take a shower, wake up kids and Hubby, pack food for Hubby and myself, fix breakfast for all of us (really no big deal, just English muffins), get ready (damn, I sat down in front of the computer again. Now I'm really running late!) Finished getting ready, see what time it is, PANIC run Sarah to school, come back home get dressed, realize Hubby has grabbed my lunch (which has cantaloupe and my supplements in it, did I mention the fact that Hubby HATES cantaloupe? Did I also mention the fact that I always take the red lunch box and he always takes the blue lunch box?). Called Hubby and tell him to leave my lunch in his truck, stop by his work on the way to my work to switch lunches and can't find his truck, call Hubby to find out were the f@#% he parked, switch lunches and go to work....just about an hour late. Being that late isn't really that big of a deal, I'm salary and oncall 24/7 so no one will really say anything it just kinda screws up the day. I'm mad at myself for sitting in front of the computer when I know that it will cause me to lose track of time and be late. I'm really mad at Hubby cause it's easier to be mad at him then at myself and because there is no reason he can't pack up the food or not let his alarm go off for an hour or not fix breakfast.....OK...OK...I'll stop complaining now!

Wednesday 9/08/2004

Today was a really good day, I stayed very busy at work so the day went by fast and I felt like I had energy all day (until I made the mistake of laying down on the couch).

Clint has his first football game tonight; he was so excited this morning. I can’t wait to see how they do! Today has been a good day for the first day back at work after a long weekend. I didn’t go to the gym this morning but since it’s a cardio day I can do that at home tonight with Hubby. I cooked a lot yesterday so meals shouldn’t be too much of a hassle this week.

Walked 2 miles with a friend at a fast pace up and down hills.

I haven't been drinking my water like I should so with all the water today, I've been in the bathroom a lot....not sure why I felt the need to share that!

Weekend

We’ve had the best weekend! Went to the football game Friday night (we lost), then dropped Clint (12yrs) and his friend off at the Jr. High dance afterwards. Picked them up and went home and played on the computer since I didn’t have to worry about getting up early. Saturday my hubby went to the deer lease and I farted around the house with the kids then I went shopping. Hubby and I went out to dinner and then went a bought a new TV (nothing fancy, just a new TV). Sunday went to Church had lunch then took a nap….a really long nap, it was wonderful, can’t remember the last time we did that! Monday (Labor Day) Hubby and Clint went to deer lease and went dove hunting, Sarah (7yrs) and I worked in the yard and played in the sprinkler…fixed lunch and cooked a bunch for this week, a friend stopped by to visit (she hasn’t stopped by in ages) and it was just really nice! And the weather was perfect all weekend…yesterday felt like fall.

I didn’t go to the gym but I mowed the yard with the push mower instead of the ridding mower (we have a very large yard). That made me feel really good cause last summer I thought I’d use the push mower and had to stop after a few minutes cause I just couldn’t do it! Eating wasn’t perfect but not too bad either, we ate out some but nothing horrible.

What can I say….it was just an awesome weekend!

Today was weigh in day....didn't lose, didn't gain…so I guess this week was a draw! This was the first week since starting EFL that I haven’t lost but it’s not really surprising since we ate out several times this week and I didn’t go to the gym at all. Of course I’m disappointed that I didn’t lose but I’m super excited that I didn’t gain (I was kinda worried about it).

So now I have my menu for next week and new motivation. I’ve got to get in the habit of going to the gym again and get things organized at home so I can stay on track. Things have just been crazy and I let them get out of control…but I’m back in charge and ready to get things going again.

Current weight – 227.5 lbs.

Total weight lost – 15 lbs.
