Well, I have sunk to an all time low....no longer do I race to the scale aisle in walmart...I now walk into the pet store and step on the dog scale. I mean what the heck! That is problems. Although the dog scale says 5 lbs different than the drs.
I have traded one obsession for another...food versus bingo. I joined an online bingo league...and it is such a great group of people. Supportive, funny...and I get to play bingo. Yes, Im only 30 with the soul of a granny. My husband laughs at me. Instead of eating, i turn to bingo..it keeps my hands busy..so it works
I start my new job officially tomorrow...Oy, to be on a schedule and then come home to take care of children. And clean after hub. I hope he falls into the routine well, and realizes I cant do it all. It makes me nervous. We have fallen into the well organized routine before so I hope its easy transitioning again.
I dont know if I told you all, but my mom bought me and the boys a new pup...Her name is Fergie..she is a mini daschund. and is just adorable.
hope to hear from you all soon!!

Good trade
If it keeps your hands busy and not eating, right on! Good luck tomorrow!!
I love bingo. ;) I had to laugh while I was on vacation there was a cafe turned bingo party one night... People on holiday, in Greece, on an island ...playing Bingo. ;) Made me smile. At least tho it was an outdoor cafe by the sea!
I think that anything that we can find that keeps inappropriate amounts of food out of our mouths is a good thing. I love to play games online, too, but I have found that, not only do they keep me from eating, they also keep me from exercising. I hope you are able to find balance there.
Best wishes on the new job. I hope your first day went wonderfully!
I hope your DH figures out that you need help around the house. I hope Captain America figures out that I need help pretty soon, too! I told him once, but I don't think it registered. Men and their selective hearing...
Doing something with your hands or mind is a great way of avoiding overeating. I play little card games on the computer or just browse at clothes that I know I will be wearing this time next year. Keep doing whatever helps you! Have a great week!

iDLE HANDS
It is always good to keep our hands busy. Keeps food away from the mouth.
How did the new job go? Post pictures of the new puppy. Blessings to you. Chargail
Here's hoping the new job goes well, the new puppy is lovely and the new "addiction" helps the weight loss keep going in the right direction. You're doing so well!
Hope your first day on the job goes well :) Thanks so much for commenting on my blog. It's nice to meet you!
I've never played bingo on line - but it's a fun game! you cracked me up with your comment about being 30 and having the soul of a granny. I feel that way too with solitaire lol.
Hi there - just a newbie passing through. Congrats on your weight loss thus far. We're the same height and I wish I was where you are. I've been stuck at the same number for years. I diet and then stop...starting and stopping. UGH. Now I'm starting again. Wish me luck! *Best Wishes to you*
