Ranting

I don't usually rant about anything (on my blog) but I feel the need to.
With the economy the way it is today is makes me CRAZY listening to professional atheles and celebritys renegociating their contracts, being offered $20 million dollars for 2 years and not wanting to accept less than $29 million (someone in the NFL) Why be so frickin' greedy?!?!!? There are people who can't pay their bills, are getting laid off, power disconnected, losing their homes and car's and YOU WANT NO LESS THAN $29 MILLION IN 2 YEARS!? You are greedy, that's all it boils down to. Does he think he is made of SOLID GOLD? Maybe if some of these people would actually take a cut in pay (I am sure they have enough money stockpiled to last the rest of their lives and their childrens and their children's children for that matter) it would help somewhat with everyone recovering better in these times. I know it is not the answer or a solution but come on!

new Year New ME

well I am not sure how, I feel like I have been eating a lot this week. I am down 4 of the 6 I gained last week. It's been tough the last couple of days because I have been home with Molly, she has been sick so I have wanted to eat to cure my boredom!!!!!

No graph, it didn't work for me last time, just imagine the line going down......

New Year, New ME

Yah yah, I ate too much over Valentine's Day.... The chocolate covered strawberries that were made for me and the cookies I made didn't aid in any weight loss. It helped in gaining 6lbs. I am not thrilled but it was bound to happen.
Will do better next week!

Finally FINALLY I jumped over the plateau that was my 20 pound weight loss. I was a little more focused this week and lost 2 pounds WOOHOO! My total weight loss to date is 22 pounds now, on my way back down again!

One year down.... lifetime to go......

New Year New ME

I lost 5 pounds this week. I give all credit to 'the flu' ...... thank you, if it weren't for you, I probably would have gained.

New Year, New ME

It's been a great month or so not dieting, been eating what I have been wanting to and not counting calories at all. Somehow I managed to only gain 5 pounds during this time, but that is 5 pounds I don't want to keep.
When my parents were here my dad challenged Jim and I to lose 20 pounds by the next time we see him which will most likely be July...we are TOTALLY up for that.
Then on Tuesday I had a flyer put on my desk about a weight loss challenge for work. You assemble a team and you have to lose 7% of your total body weight by April 24th (this starts February 2nd) So we started a team and are on our way.
It's hard getting used to eating healthy again, but it feels good. The only part that doesn't is my stomach grumbling all the time.
