OK, I'm here again

So, I think I'm feeling better today. At least I find myself sitting here thinking about what I should do while the kids are still sleeping... but damn, there's a t-storm just moved in, so I'll be back in a little while to tell you what I got accomplished so far. :)



ok, I'm back. So this morning, I've posted 2 more recipes to Tasty Space, updated my photo blog, my other blog and now this one. I've just done my measurements and I'm happy to say I'm up to 41 inches lost. I notice it in places like my hips where my nightgown use to get stuck, now it hangs! I love that! Of course, all my clothes are too big for me, but I don't want to even bother buying stuff now. I'll just keep waiting a bit longer LOL


It IS nice, though. I tried on a dress that I'd bought for my sister's wedding 5 years ago. It barely fit then, but I managed. It had been in my closet that long because I never wore it again. Well, now it fits! It buttons down to the bottom, so those of you who have any weight on you KNOW that buttons always tell the truth. That's why I never wore it again. Now it falls perfectly and it's so pretty. I'm glad I hung on to it.


So anyways, I feel better today, even with this stupid rain and impending visit of my ex husband. We've remained friends, so I don't mind him visiting. I mind the lousy weather and the change of all our "outdoor" plans that will inevitably take place now. I actually VOLUNTEERED to go mountain biking! *pout*


Anyways, I hope all my fellow flybabies are ok. Angel told me Millie was in the way of Ophelia, so I hope that her & her family are ok. Kay, where are you? C'mon, please participate! :)

Hello ladies

Well, I made such a yummy dinner tonight, I'll be posting the recipe on My Tasty Space right after this. Even my son, who won't even LOOK at a can of tuna, ate the fish. :)



I've been holding my own as far as my weight. I haven't managed to lose much, but I havent' gained back, so I figure that's gotta be something. I've been cooking healthy, but cheating on snacks like crazy. This weekend while shopping, hubby took the time to look at a million different labels to find some decent snacking options for us, because yes, he's joined me on this, even though he doesn't need to. :)


We found that popcorn can be a good choice, if we haven't over-extended ourselves on carbs for the day. Also, yummmmy honey-roasted peanuts! Woohoo.


So anyways, I've been flying somewhat. Some things I've let slide. I've been working a lot longer than 15 minutes at a time. I know I haven't been drinking enough. Sigh. I'm still doing more than I used to, but I know I should be doing more. At least now, with my "new" hubby, I'm getting alot more help, so that makes it easier. But it also makes it easier for me to slack off. LOL Ya just can't win, huh? :)


Well, that's my update. I'm hoping for good news at my ultrasound next week (NO, I'm not pregnant!), and that'll do wonders for my frame of mind, I have no doubt.


Till next time,

Fluttering once more

Well, on Saturday morning, Angel and I met up on yahoo to do a confab. It was nice to have someone to fly with for a while. I got a bit of work done.




Dawn, I do know the frustration and isolation that you are feeling right now. I have been making a huge effort to post. I don't have a scale, and I've never done my stats simply because I have yet to have an hour where Chris and I are both availible to do that. When we do, we are sleeping.




As always, I am making huge efforts to drink my daily alloted amount of water. A struggle, but I am managing to get close, if not meet it each day.




Hope to hear from everyone soon.
