Can you tell I had fun <a href="http://weightloss-stories.blogspot.com/2010/04/rockin-fridayliterally.html">last night playing Rock Band</a>? :) I had a wonderful wake up call from my Mom. Her and my Step Dad have a lawn business and were going to be spraying yards today and wanted to know if we wanted ours sprayed! Of course I said yes! <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv31hkHXFXnvi3Yoh1A5NbGpdlEC-OplQTEuEZSGMXBqGDnhtWI0wWTnPZawCFHhCgU1uPBa-2S07agY-1KsZsT2xUTCELOIyApPdWZjG-TtimukksdRxlJY3zBRZZ8UyJ6ZMZnTDXmyFd/s1600-h/DSC06995%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC06995" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSFmo2qQiEsAuWyJsDXgZ6CKOLeHn8JfgtY18yb5d8UZwm6KMGD9isyY0-qaWKxSYd9lI9yLGpZLDpTRF6kmLgzq3P7S9sk4JE3JHx1jSh0ykSSn1PVq9Dg2C7syPkHegHrTesemayTtJP/?imgmax=800" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" title="DSC06995" width="404" /></a> For their kindness I made them breakfast! This was my servings, ff pancakes with ff Cool Whip & strawberries for 5 points. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqzIshwqT2K8otWoYkMhHKXIGJYYrN1bGaw6qNipoBRj-dQWQzBb2w8yo2NDM6nHPi3Mq-JGMVGw0088LOOkayQ-oxKb3cPGBXZ2-wxuCPt5O1yM3iPBWDyqnStGyOClv9cxcedljjSe_0/s1600-h/DSC06994%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC06994" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPRPSv4StY8lDE4AcNyQz_v7dw0MZwZtlubBEXGrS7t3P66b-tvYM4RSfXs0jUJT9R3wSUTdHECTtYiK9aeoxe-975YhdPORneGFCIhlQioqcTj4O6pv0fiUA0Ng-VBsFkSa_kbdKKpV5T/?imgmax=800" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" title="DSC06994" width="404" /></a> After they headed out I started laundry and worked out our menu planner for the week. The last time I did one was in February! I think it is key to be able to stay on track!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEM2ZILWZzKb6OpIb2qHu8yS9h09OLe5oud92gv2GlcegfZVgC2daVaNWW9IvybSBccHrma6pp8xcJr0y77xL5_ZK-P9aLrvPADkGA0uZTAX7r30kHzKzMfDD7OaBEf4iGKg7yxNwF12uw/s1600-h/DSC06997%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC06997" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjahdkVRbUT6BwdU3p-sGy7UBFjQuhLh9LYPzMPHqJFpJdqrTaRT3oXCZaX33phWKvy_rNYKB6lgHG4GjWOTzqnmGN-EH2we4sb9DLCO-5NU_ve1Qs4ifEDtWQdJBsiD6A56qJp3dVsvpRT/?imgmax=800" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" title="DSC06997" width="404" /></a> Did any of catch the center piece on my table in the background? I put this together with sand & shells from our <a href="http://weightloss-stories.blogspot.com/2010/03/fun-filled-florida-day-3.html">Florida trip</a>.

We got in 5.25 miles [a tad slow…but I think it’s partly because I talked for almost the whole time!]. It was a great run!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUqEj4s-rF80kF54r3Ef_VAgrcR9kkdeP-hQBmWyJ6hfmIwWZIilsPTeKpl1BTxolijP05R6-IUK7t2HxtVddrbCz4_VlxCISRaEktIFkRBT6fHV2fzAGrQKun03ybXmHuCFd0UDoXHFiK/s1600-h/DSC07000%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC07000" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGzE9dmV3EFGDhuuuPP9DhqTNzE01JYJtnYcl1Jb1QXTUdpwfT2ZnUsMPHJkP2Wh8tsvwbOy1cB9rlVs7qwvxPZ2-hiyiUQtig99chRZtba4X-SRfNnq4_Vof2CaoXlSQCSDxkryLDq6NG/?imgmax=800" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" title="DSC07000" width="404" /></a> After our run I made us matching to-go protein smoothies! In the blender was 3c strawberries, 1 scoop protein powder, banana, 1/4c milk, and ice. My half was 3 points. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLreXFdTNgrTYSljx3Lan8EUSWUBZRMqlUDvrzzmouSkzf7KzkdMl8Ew2RBiBqZIzfQAhhXzplL9OoH4X4_SIRCr2aPDwVIIlP5RViYH9TY0itNehtUzF60Sn-KZCQFm3WVJkHsKte8G-J/s1600-h/DSC07002%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC07002" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcLwaxoQJrPP4iVxxpDqNVkOEXCZYH1JpgQ0oVsQYkxJ8MJ_7sDX5YaMQpTDKEPCfvFk5eJXD2SaCAAXeYFQSIqpstI9JcUZQQ8zprQuj9UKSEG7jm7NmJ0SwCquzmxPIyY7cenUYgiBGZ/?imgmax=800" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" title="DSC07002" width="404" /></a> We took our protein smoothies to go because we took a short road trip to Sam’s Club to stock up on a few essentials. We also bought a small chest freezer….but not thinking we brought our car and not the SUV and the freezer didn’t fit in the back seat!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBxVJfFetrBluNXKyY_Skvd8QDakWzDvmhEtu_Fs0_bZhD9y25eMfsAAJyULzj4aRkK2kp8Eb_ThDmgke-mECHgPMjiTSTrc5aSLMPp3npATX1ju5Xc_4bIqxwxW6428PXtZR4dz31lFtT/s1600-h/DSC07003%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC07003" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgImXijFCYrbM2L0NfBKRtCZ0DJ0yDd5xwO2IOgRcsSPBHzMhOAFq4JdL6eo5Y06Hag4NojtNTG3qjj9Nz4V7xC5FDgYtKNqyJvyoeeJjdEIGWVgDDZiaaEQjOUNnxBGQa-7rh5wUau0bEK/?imgmax=800" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" title="DSC07003" width="404" /></a> We ended up returning the freezer since it didn’t fit. Out of curiosity [for some reason] I called Lowes [across the street] to see what their price was and they were $20 cheaper and they have free delivery to our town! I told Kyle I think the Sam’s Club freezer wasn’t meant to be so we could save some $$! Speaking of saving $$ I loved all of your ideas of why we are <a href="http://weightloss-stories.blogspot.com/2010/04/to-verify-or-not.html">tightening up our budget belts</a>. But no I am not pregnant and we’re not moving! You’ll just have to wait & see! ;) I tested out the new 90 calorie Fiber One bars. They are only 1 point and the flavor was peanut butter chocolate…good stuff! :)<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbemybfUQHy4S81rRLRnsjJfeTrxWAsST223tTYEYMF9anSc54pnk__XIvU4iDw6fT78vZAS-CmlnumQVMVntVbivTx_tuW1R8d1Wx9ysp8XNzF2cnF3VNnOii7gqRsz4dwPf7A-B3WJoe/s1600-h/DSC07005%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC07005" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIojozT4zoPvOkOnQh-Dkhyphenhyphenm0rSbp-5bFhFkOQzD7cUFsxnpNFQnAbkJ26Bq7Hrq52Taubl2g-3Mjq461uO8nGWZ9jBTMpKSOHufJ6Tx5Bhu2sxHuc151inSfnAvRxCUwysYTKqbfrd6W-/?imgmax=800" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" title="DSC07005" width="404" /></a> We went simple, healthy, and cheap for supper…Subway!

Can you tell I had fun last night playing Rock Band ? :) I had a wonderful wake up call from my Mom. Her and my Step Dad have a lawn busin...

Rockin’ Friday…literally!

9:27 AM Tukiyooo 0

Happy Friday Friends!! We made it!! So it seems like the consensus from <a href="http://weightloss-stories.blogspot.com/2010/04/to-verify-or-not.html">yesterday’s question</a> is that, for the most part, word verification doesn’t stop you from commenting! My Friday started out a bit sluggish. Kyle and I stayed up a tad bit too late last night and I wasn't too keen on getting out of bed when the alarm went off at 6am this morning! But nevertheless, I did! Breakfast was a HUGE smoothie! I think I must have used more ice than normal because the blender was FULL! Today my smoothie contained 1 small banana, 1 1/2 c strawberries, strawberry yogurt, 1/2 scoop of protein powder and ice for a total of 4 points. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuefxbwn7_twP-eY2qEQs6gGkOpZGnaZh81sYUeLPKMSzZB9qrAXADaKibgM2A74dR1fA0TxB3r-mRtCXlp3Sh0c0RN8NwTV53vK0f-_eodIViwoLgPYOr01GSH56o2dTeSOYj7vCTx2T_/s1600-h/DSC06968%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC06968" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirSQ-IaxJOA0ep-kQooxmQ8YGGf6JQ3MLov_V-UI6d4-OXJh8NW6cSTSx83ZJn5lhWHXFmK2Rr0mTJ6q49-Ba3qigk5kr7EfExSBIzWAZlrFFXx_nDClx209bbuf2ji8JqQIYAstpEUdBI/?imgmax=800" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" title="DSC06968" width="404" /></a> I plan to pick up some spinach this weekend at the grocery store so I can try out my first "<a href="http://greenmonstermovement.com/">green monster</a>"! I struggled to keep my eyes open through the morning. But I think the fact that it is Friday got me through! Well, that, and my morning snack! The usual mix of 1 1/2c strawberries, 1/4c grape nuts, and strawberry yogurt for 3 points. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8b3No5uU83TOy8xL_Qd43SZkXPrMPp9CJEm4GnmqNnlWE7iSK9ybD42tUfBSn6fd7yqTJSIR6bCxn0Okf56IcP7L_qACs-tophwsu_8Z4KI-gASiHZ28GBMhJM6_lriPqjA_b_GFVW3k6/s1600-h/DSC06969%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC06969" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMa7WMNi16VMA1lfsl5sMJx9zimFaanauZ3CjVuRq5RoouOlP8ycNIrs_N85A622bAqtOam9_E1a1SvP1bBjvqPXk8wCr_WcMRZQeaW9DuPIuuNchfTamoUwgk69iuZh-zLgbemjlkP3Tg/?imgmax=800" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" title="DSC06969" width="404" /></a> I ran a bunch of errands on my lunch break so I had to get something quick.

It was interesting to hear what everyone does to <a href="http://weightloss-stories.blogspot.com/2010/04/wax-or-tweeze.html">maintain your brows</a>!! I definitely miss waxing, but that is $12+ more in our budget each month! And you will all find out soon why we are tightening up our “budget belts”! I started out my morning with oatmeal again today. I went to my office early and this is easy to whip up in the break room! It was the usual combo of instant oatmeal, PB2, and a small sliced banana for 4 points. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOBA2ipF7c7AVieuOBYCvM3LZ9aamjOoe5Di3bwFInJfcXbJjBrzBLzCg9oPDcK0-qPki5Nb6hbZDT1bdm7BBx3QMP_mb_kvFCYlF8_hz8ITrqpgkhbXLbg5ulkucoTcC9Qzbz5KtskT2V/s1600-h/DSC069623.jpg"><img alt="DSC06962" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhevT2o_5pJfyYlFPMQNolekQS4eb61pGjhDU0fgt81oxHtP2Y6QIrjzIn2CYQcv1pBpo2hSHrX2abh8kOvACN6huNZzVgAd4XZKoHYhCRoi9zVkmSgvnL4HN8eI0VWJ7w-qkt8M2LuWrvU/?imgmax=800" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" title="DSC06962" width="404" /></a> I love how oatmeal always keeps me feeling full for a long time in the mornings! I didn’t dig into my morning snack until after 11am! Once again I had the SAME thing, 1 1/2c strawberries, 1/4c grape nuts, and strawberry yogurt for 3 points. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr9eY0e5NSXc3W7PKPRa_8HDp_1tQbMwYVeXYlh0r2FkPZAzGkH2L50B5KFte1vkkMeQGvMS9ui9laDHerHZEi2d0Ury7uIjmEh9dIrRdonWSKzUZi-ZWNYQVhgXSR9aXWKUzFLhiBy3SJ/s1600-h/DSC069633.jpg"><img alt="DSC06963" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeuL3NL59C4flnzg0m2nGZvBthehkTztqcUQ7EwemsTdmtU1t7MGoz2KGcmmYMJ2uNAOPMJLK58oBPZjzB-g09CEpVYBHZ3mZ8nCv8FKbWap0NLrt1DuPOZ2Y0iHDpDG6flvzOuH11fEvm/?imgmax=800" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" title="DSC06963" width="404" /></a> I sure hope you guys aren't getting bored of my same ole morning eats everyday! I don't think I could ever get burnt out on oatmeal or strawberry/yogurt combos! For lunch today I decided to have a Boca burger! I almost forgot I had these in the freezer! Along side I also had 1c honeydew for a total of 3 points.

We started a new section tonight and I think my students are really liking it a lot more than the first part of the class! Whew...makes my job easier! During class I snacked on roughly 2 servings of reduced fat wheat thins and a diet Sunkist for 4 points. On the way home I had a oats & chocolate fiber one bar for 2 points. Talk about having your desert before supper! Don't worry, it didn't completely spoil my appetite!  <img alt="DSC06965" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzHmuxmNjh1clGTdX3ZYOhzAMD0mfxH-JvA4dFRlFBCNLZpk-VqjVSfWJ4nAkZsrxl-S1goYvUXwoc7NoMovCGylyhXM4mWlGs31s0lYfiduwhprAjgJU1_IDBJFv_GZT4xaP7IYj7abPh/?imgmax=800" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" title="DSC06965" width="404" /> I had no intention of running today since I knew I wouldn’t be home until after 8:30pm, but for some reason I couldn’t resist!

Well little did I know I had that as a requirement to comment on my blog! So I removed it now...feel free to swarm me with comments now, my lovely readers!! ;) What's your take on it? Do you comment if someone has word verification? For me? I sure do, but I have to say, sometimes it is annoying because I don't always get it right on the first try!

My legs were burning!! After our workout I whipped up a protein smoothie for the both of us! In the mix was 3 c strawberries, 1/2c skim milk, 2 scoops of protein powder, and ice.

Thanks everyone for your kind words yesterday! I'm feeling much better today! You guys are the best!! :) After I posted last night something came over me and I just wanted to work out even though my head was saying I should take it easy! So I decided to do an "Around the World" circuit! If you haven't read <a href="http://www.bobbimccormick.com/">Bobbi's blog</a> before you need to *she’s awesome*, but <a href="http://www.bobbimccormick.com/?p=5122">here is the link to her video</a> explaining them! They may sound pretty easy, but believe me they get your heart rate up and keep it there! Felt great! For breakfast this morning I couldn't wait to get mix up a smoothie! In the blender today was 1 c strawberries, 1 small banana, ice, and 1 strawberry yogurt for a total of 3 points. I forgot the protein powder! <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjy10gjg5agvNnjlb66cWoFyhoajlbrXooB6VQo-czY2NA1w3yASqiI4E58pIonElayG3pPuyYE0x9FEBAGPVW2jELTnuWo_3P_aUsAulYethJB7ssluaYW5J1TOvCGsz0XO_dv-6e7gnOg/s1600-h/DSC06948%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC06948" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiY4kyRgcRtB37dUFiMoJpnS9iaebor7yQ9S8HS3CbKcariJD9Oq1aKIohLdpGnymlGpedckYAPZl2npvk-bwpPrVMNLySOHSb3ulkp639bb-oH6hl7pr_y-K6EUi48bjmHbDwPWZ0POmfm/?imgmax=800" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" title="DSC06948" width="404" /></a> The smoothie did an awesome job of holding me over until my morning snack time! I had the usual mix today of 1/4c grape nuts, 1 1/2c strawberries, and strawberry yogurt for 3 points. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEHhbGykoAcZOUmmW95OKMLaHmsrpWiscANe1Z79oB-QIKwwhTqT5FrRErAz0PRWAsFpz0YUSU1c3oRSS1-UnfT4O8rSqr_r4eEeD4CrREDuB8qRF-96JQmfq2lm2Sffz7HiOCEQnrk8QK/s1600-h/DSC06949%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC06949" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrQThf0CNamCYNvtG_Yq0eZflxdWapZOnhM5RMhjXq4iHXBZbSZAY9Dp5UJfuXxW683HRhWMu3GegkUExWRIEXkggzy1ipwMLswrI-i24UH7FGNpX9mtxBpGwt54_ubJua41AyyjP0JeCT/?imgmax=800" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" title="DSC06949" width="404" /></a> So right before I went to lunch today I went to the bathroom quick and when I went to zip up my skirt the zipper split half way down, I tried to go back down and couldn't. Then I tried to go up with the zipper and half of it completely came off the zipper thing that goes up & down. So I had to hold it closed with my hand back to my office, use some binder clips to hold it together and then headed outside in the 25+mph winds! Luckily there were a pair of jeans in my car! Whew!! Lunch was on the run because Kyle and I had an appointment to do our passport applications! We are going on a cruise in November and been wanting to get this done for a while. On the way I scarfed down 1 cup of honeydew for 1 point. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-JiN4DCGkQZQWhn69fKs7vPglyoaTaqwIZuRFt5HJkcW-v3_whMdwnORrCtEw6rRRi-kQOVEEVMbubrFj44YzXTtuAdatwe0SdPIdDIIuwjRr51uDgaEdNUFT8i9EpObMRNcPJg1gwZb2/s1600-h/DSC06950%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC06950" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwYW9oTYJAKzezvZdwnRSny2c1rLugp90FzjMuSHsmP1LD5CadNV17Fto9lyqcOLOeNVIqkjTWIq24f6tz5J2vWriw4kj9UXsnbgB6WHLLwHlXESkMmA0grAQ3bDAbCBN4JuRucBRDsF-H/?imgmax=800" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" title="DSC06950" width="404" /></a> Kyle was sweet enough to bring me a ham & turkey sandwich with cheese for 3 points.

I work in an office where everyone dresses business casual and jeans are a bit too casual, but not when your skirt won't stay up! After work Kyle and I did a  few things outside and before we knew it, it was already after 7pm and I hadn’t even thought about supper yet! So we went for something quick. I had a baked potato with 2 tbs of lite sour cream for 3 points.  <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwIdG9vJcl6qnTnn750CE28UerqeqdKUBfbMmYfqNXNB4OK40nQOZmGU8zppQ88cO-ddRdnO8CKG9337_7brDCEHbCXdb9iKc2jrJ4pXwUtjvcx2_6h9iR1AJBs0XqwFDdaS4KUJehlaS3/s1600-h/DSC06952%5B3%5D.jpg"><img alt="DSC06952" border="0" height="304" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizsu0JybOC9W8Ymn5_ZW-IdBhyphenhyphenG_ELIc5AMEbjBKeoIb3zj_6p4aEEmsM1xXpxG3Esrke-k-70UukDAluHvW1IDADpZqdaB9oeDZQjkCnI8Xvmna5TVTG1jI6PnvgOZBhvli9aDEChgTlR/?imgmax=800" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" title="DSC06952" width="404" /></a> I also had 1/2c cottage cheese with 1/2c sliced peaches for 2 points.

The 'do' and the Ambien experience

9:29 PM Tukiyooo 0

The 'do' I promise I'll post a picture of the new hair later. Although I'm not sure I like it. I have --- layers! I wondered what took her so long to cut it. Apparently she added layers under the pretense of "cleaning" up the ends. I thought it looked good when she styled it yesterday. This morning I was very frustrated trying to flat iron many different lengths of hair. My normal five minute process took about twenty minutes. It's funny, when I was fat if I got a haircut I didn't like, even a half inch shorter than I expected, I would cry. Seriously, I'd actually shed tears over my hair. It was like it was the only part of me that I had any control over. If I hated my hair, I felt 100% ugly because I already hated my body. Even though I'm not loving this haircut right now, it doesn't bother me. I feel like, oh well, it'll grow back. No big deal. Anyone that knew me before would be completely shocked over this attitude about my hair. Perhaps it's because I don't totally hate my body these days. Even though it's not perfect, I'm loving it a lot more than I did at 240 pounds. :) The Ambien experience I've stopped taking Ambien, the prescription sleeping aid. It's dangerous! This morning I woke up and had red stuff all over my hands. It looked liked I'd murdered someone in my sleep. My fingers were literally "beet red". OMG! I ate the roasted beet dip! I headed into the kitchen and found the container in the refrigerator, with only a couple tablespoons of dip remaining. There was about 3/4 cup in the container when I went to bed. This meant I'd eaten almost the entire 3/4 cup of dip. Considering three tablespoons was 4.5 Points, this isn't a good thing. <a name='more'></a> The even weirder thing, I didn't see any evidence of bread or crackers eaten with the dip. Plus, my fingers were a brillant red. Did I eat it with my fingers?! I honestly have no memory of eating anything at all last night and have no idea what else I may have eaten. This is scary stuff. If I could do this, could I get in my car and drive somewhere? Or what if I go to bed mad at my husband? What if that had been blood? Kind of scared the hell out of me. Since this is the second incident in a week where I have no memory, I've flushed the remaining five Ambien pills down the drain. It's too scary of what I'm capable of doing while under the influence. Eating food that I don't even remember enjoying is one thing, but what else am I capable of doing? I'll have to learn how to sleep on my own. I actually fell asleep a couple times last week without it so I think I'll be okay. Speaking of sleep...that's where I'm going now. Happy Tuesday!

Hello my blog friends! I have kind of been on hiatus the past few days. I have just felt a little “off”. Please don’t abandon me! Here are a few things I’ve been up to! Thursday I worked till 5pm and then from 5:30-8pm I gave a test in my class. It was a long, draining day! Friday was work like normal, but then we had a little fun! Kyle and I played with our 2 little neighbor boys…they loved zooming around on Kyle’s Craftsman seat! Friday night we watched UP!

I napped in the afternoon and then we got one of the Pizza Hut $10 pizzas. I was just feeling “off” all day and did NOT sleep well at all Sunday night. I went to the doctor Monday morning and had 102 temp and an infection. :( But I got an anti-biotic so hopefully I’m gonna kick it’s butt!  I know none of this really isn’t food or fitness related, but just wanted to let you guys know I’m still alive and kicking!
