my new gym.....

so my elliptical crashed, and it lasted 3 years and I got it for dirt cheap, so it was to be expected, so I found a new one and just ordered it and its pink and super cute,

so in the mean time I've been working out at my parents place and my dog Casey has an overactive bladder (to put it nicely-love you Casey Ann) and whenever she gets excited, she pees-well she saw me and peed, which I love because its a nice feeling to have a dog be so excited to see you. LOL! gotta love it!

its crazy, but I've discovered that I need to work out, my back has been hurting since my old elliptical broke down and now its good, so crazy.... and its such a great stress reliever

also got to hang out with the parents and plan our annual dad/daughter Disney trip in July, while my mom laughed at how crazy we are! ha! i'm so excited! this girl needs a vacay!

my mom is so amazing, she always knows what to say to make me feel better. life is jut crazy and stressful and she knows how to make me laugh-even though I told her "you've worried about me for 31 and 1/2 years + 9 months (!!) and I just want her to worry about other things, but I guess no matter what age you are, you always need your momma! and your family and mine is the best! be jealous!

also PS my old bedroom is where my mom's elliptical is at, so its nice to go back home (literally) and feel like a kid again! being an adult stinks sometimes.

today was a major KICKIN butt day!! woot woot!

guess what I did?!?!

for those of you who don't know, I have major food issues! I lost over 100 pounds with weight watchers two years ago, and I feel like I have been gaining more and more of the weight back. I'm still in a healthy range, but it gets harder and harder to have one cheat day, which moves into multiple cheat days, just because if I get off plan for even one bite, lick, or taste it is over and then I think "well I just wrecked my day, so I might as well eat whatever!". well today I have news. we had pizza for lunch (of course-my major weakness!) and I avoided it at lunch (yah me!) but then I found left overs in the breakroom, ugh! but I decided to just have two pieces, and that was it. and then they had extras at the end of the day and instead of taking a ton home and just saying "oh well, you cheated, you might as well eat the rest of the day!" I just said "nope, not happening!" and I came home and ate my normal "on plan" foods and I did it! woah! I've never gotten back on plan after straying off course! I am so excited! i'm beginning to realize that its not realistic to count points my whole life (I mean I am still and will continue to do so, because weight watchers does work -exhibit A) but now I feel like I can do this. I could eat something at lunch and then get back on plan that night for dinner and maybe I should've stayed away from that pizza, but that is just not realistic, and I saw some old pictures of me at my lowest and I want to get back there so badly, so its time to make a come back! here we go! oh my gosh, this might not seem like a big deal to you, but to me this is HUGE! I could use some prayers! I sure wish we didn't need food to live, but I feel a lot better about this! i'm trying not to deprive myself and just enjoy food, and then not go crazy! I'll keep y'all updated!

2 year Weight Watchers lifetime anniversary!

Wow-its been 2 years! That is so crazy to me! What's even crazier is how much harder it is to maintain than to lose. It took me a year and half to lose the weight and I am not able to have to go through doing something like that again!!

I really don't think I can have any cheat days anymore, I get so focused on eating as much as I can in those 24 hours, which usually stretch out into multiple days, and I get so sick. I had a cheat day last Monday, which turned into cheat days the Saturday and Sunday night before and then the Thursday night after and then Friday I had a HORRIBLE day at work, so I earned it, which then went into Saturday night! so yeah, my 1 intended cheat day turned into 6 days. EEEKK! I am so scared to weigh in on Wednesday, but I've never missed a weigh in and I am ready to get back on track and kick butt and take names (in Jesus' name, of course!) LOL! I could use some support. is anyone else out there struggling with weight issues or is it just me??? cuz sometimes it feels like its just me. I sure wish we didn't need food to live, that would make this so much easier! LOL!!!

let's have a great week everyone!! we can do it!!

woah, this whole "kicking butt with God and taking names" quote is working for me......

today was AWESOME!!! it just feels good to be recognized by your employer for the work you are doing, I just gotta keep remembering that I am working for the Lord, not men!

after today's awesome day, I met up with the bestie Sara and we had EP, so good, and then we did our usual shopping and then went to Sara's place to watch Fuller House, the new show based on Full House, so good!! I was worried, because some of the old shows that come back don't work, but I really liked this!!

so just a great day! although I gotta remember to give God the glory and praise even when things turn south which they will, hey that's life right?? Have a GREAT weekend!!!!!

also PS, remind Sara that you guys are on episode 9! LOL! we both have bad memory!
