Good morning

Today is my WI day.  I don't know what I weighed in at last week.  Didn't want to wi at all but my JCC talked me into it. I stepped on the scale backwards.  I know I am a big chicken.  should see alost this week.

Today is my toning workout along with my cardio machine workout.  Plan on doing 20 on the ellips and 20 on the treadmill.

We leave for vacation next week.  Looking forward to getting away.  We are going to Cancun agian.  Talking ds's gf and other ds is being a friend.  He was suppose to go with us a few years ago and broke his foot a week b4 we were to leave.  So he is very excited and no broken bones yet!

Have a great day.

Workout for tonigh-toning class and 20 min on treadmill and 20 minute on the ark.

Weight has not move downward...but I am noticing that 2 pair of jeans and a dress that I bought in May are fitting looser.  How can that be?  My weight is the same and I am measuring the same but clothes are fitting better.  It must be the working out I am doing.  Just tighting things up I guess.

Good morning

I noticed yesterday after I had posted that the last post was March 19.  That was the day before we had gotten the news of my mom.  On March 20 I got a call from my dad that he needed to take mom in the emergency room.  Her lung was filling with fluid again.  The third time in 3 months.  Mom had been on oxgyen for a couple of weeks and it worked better when one of us kids could go along to doctor appointments or to the hospital.  So I met them at the house. My brother was already there. Mom could walk on her on, she had become very weak.  The last three weeks had not been good.  We got her in the car and load up the ox. tank and we were on our way.  When we got there things were moving fast. Dad even said we should be in a room in good time. Well things started to stand still. It wasn't until 2:30 that afternoon that we were told by two docs that that cancer drug seems to be causing other side effects. Even though the cancer is shrinking the side effects are causing the lung to keep filling up with fluid. So they decided to stop treating the cancer and call in hospice.  She came home Saturday afternoon and died Tuesday evening.

More on this later.

Really struggling!!

With my weight!  Or more my eating. Just can't seem to get it together. I am thinking about changing my goal weight from 135 to 150.  Maybe more of a mind game than anything.

Since my mom past away it has been hard to stay focused!  Just some mindless eating.  Thinking about food or not really thinking about food and just eating when things are going on.

Just tired of it. I am not giving of. I am not anywhere that point. I don't like the up one week down the next.  One week eating went well the next not so well.

Hate this part of me!  Wish I just could be the person that could eat whatever and stay slim.  But that is not me. 

I have been working out more.  I am really enjoying that.  It has been fun. And is good for me to get out.  Even though there are days when all I want to do is stay in bed. I have so much to do but just know desire to do it.  Some days I just go home and lay on the couch.  I am sure this time will pass.

Well-better go.

Hate seeing

that weight graph go up!!  I finally put in my correct weight today.  I have had some rough times the last few weeks and it goes up one week and down the next..  I am so glad to still have JC to weigh in at on Thursday.  I think it helps keep me in check to come degree.

Well WI is thursday afternoon. I am looking for about a pound off. 

There is just so much on my mind that I have been doing some mindless eating.  Most of it is when I am by meself.  Old habits are coming back, not full force but just something that I need to be aware of.  My JCC said to me last week "this is not like you, we need to figure this out and get you back on the right track"  So she is in my corner and wanting this for me as well.

Work out last was toning class for 60 minutes, tonight will be 30 minutes walk/run.  Found a great idea for the treadmill-put it on an incline to make it harder while you run so when you start to run outside it would be such a shock for your body.

It's me!

I just picked a new back ground and picture.  A spring theme.  The weather here is getting nicer.  In the 40's and 50's this week.  The snow is slowing melting and I am not going to complain about the mud after the winter we had.

My weight has been staying the same.  Part of it is my doing.  But I am not giving up and continue to learn what I can and can't do.  I did start back up with my C25K last week.  Did two days, then we went away for the weekend.  Last night I painted so no run in then.  Tonight will be my toning class and do some more painting.  Wednesday I will get in a run in.

Things have been crazy, busy with the boys on the weekends and my mom has been in the hospital off and on.  We are also finishing our basement which takes some thought and time.  We are not doing the work but still must pick out things....like lights, carpet, paint, etc.  It is going to look very nice when it is all done.

Today I had :

breakfast-JC pancakes

snack-JC cheese curls

lunch-JC chicken kit

snack-tomato soup

supper-JC fish and chips

SNOW

Not sure how much we have gotten, but it has been snowing since last night.  Lots of things are closed.  I have gotten most of the things out of our basement.  DS helped with bringing boxes up to the garage.  I can't believe how things add up over time. We have only lived in this house for 3years and too much stuffl.  My goal is for the new storage room to only put holiday decoration in it and get rid of the rest.  If I don't use it I am getting rid of it.  I have two piles in the basements things to throw away and the other is going to good will.  the stuff in the garage  I will need to go through yet.

I have a hard time getting rid of thngs that my kids had used when they were young.  We have a wooden table and chair set.  Cute but we have no use for it. It is in the good will pile but I keep thinging well what if I keep it for such and such!! What a pain.

Well gotta go....

Another storm

is on its way!!  Anywhere from 6-12 inches of snow.  The good news is it has not been so awfully cold.  Funny how the 20's and 30's seem much warmer than zero.  School is getting out early and the snow hasn't even started yet.  That just bugs me!!  Keep in as long as you can.  There is nothing going on yet.  I think what a pain this must be for moms with little kids!  Mine are old enough that I don't have to worry about it and when they were young I was home with them and didn't have to worry about then either.

I didn't go to class last night and am hoping that the snow does not start until later on this evening.  We will see.

Our dog Gracie is getting fixed today, so no baby Gracie puppies.  She will be able to come Wednesday.  I need to call the vet and see how she did this morning.

Better go.

We got MORE snow!!

Didn't even know we were to be getting anymore, then yesterday afternoon it started up and snowed the rest of the evening.

Fell asleep during the super bowl game.  Woke up to watch the half time show.  Saw the end as well. Not much of a football watcher but was fun to see.

Thinking about going to bed early tonight...tired!  Started moving the things in the basement to the garage. We are finishing it in the next few weeks so gotta get all the stuff out so they start work on. Target date is Feb. 18th.  TV room on one side and game room on the other side.  Storage in the middle and a bathroom.

Oh-Jenny Craig board is going through some remodeling of its own.  I can't post, start a thread and ALOT of posts have been lost.  Kinda feel bad for the new people that are just starting out.  They are must likely thinking no one gets on there. little do they know that alot of people rely on the support from it.  Oh well.  Bedtime for me!
