its been a while since i’ve written. i have felt guilty about pushing this aside, i’ve always looked forward to writing..so hopefully i’m back on track..so much has been going on, i’ve lost a total of 110 lbs and still have a way to go, i try to do my own made up exercises in the backyard in an on top of the ground pool, but winter is just around the corner..so that will only last about a month.i bought a mini trampoline and have been trying that, they are not as easy as i thought it would be..i now work 6a.m.-2p.m. and am constantly walking, lifting and doing a lot of physical work..but somehow i’ve reached a plateau and keep going up a couple of pds and then i lose a couple, can’t seem to get on the losing track and haven’t been as strict..but when i do cheat, i go out in the pool and exercise. but besides that i’ve stayed on track. have started getting rid of my fat clothes and just ordered a jacket size 18-20 as an incenitive, i know it will fit me when the time comes..can’t wait to wear it and show it off.well its getting late and want to go swimming before bed. i have to promise myself to stay focused on blogging. and reading other blogs really makes me feel that i’m not in this boat alone..

haven’t been on here lately, but honestly when i need inspiration, i read some of the random blogs..they seem to bring me back to reality..have been on a plateau lately, one pd.up and then one down..have still been watching my fat intake tho and even tho i’m tired after work i have been going in the pool doing water aerobics that i invented, so maybe i’m building more muscle..my clothes are getting looser and have to start thinking about getting smaller work clothes..its funny but i was looking in a mirror in the bathroom at work and my scrub top looked like a oversized maternity top, wished at that moment that i had my digital camera..chuckled to myself the rest of the day..have made the daily weight thing a part of my day..do it as soon as i get up and that more or less determines the rest of my day..well time for the pool, i am gonna try to start writing on here more..and again i enjoy reading the random blogs, i can read them for hours..well until next time..

well its the last day of the weekend and back to work tomorrow, boo. weekend has been productuctive tho.managed to get under 280, 278 to be exact and got a bad sunburn, i was so happy when i got on the scale, so now my next milestone is to get under 250. the weighing everyday is really helping. i think that is the best advice that i have ever read. its encouraging to see even if its a small amount one day it was 2/10 of a pound, but it was still a loss, makes my day.work just called and wanted me to come in for a few hours, too sunburned, i’m just sitting around in niteshirt.hoping that i can get clothes on tomorrow.thats it for now..

One more day and i’ll be off for the weekend.got thru memorial day and only ate one hot dog. was very proud of myself. there was so much high fat things there and i walked right past them. i lost three more pounds this week, but was hoping for more. got the new book out called, are you losing it..read that daily weights are better than weekly weights and it seems to be better. for some reason its more encouraging, and keeps me on track, all day. when i’m tempted to cheat, i think about the scale in the morning..good book, has alot of good info in it..its geared toward the alli plan tho..i’m still at the same job, something that i rally want to change..didn’t hear about the other job..so i hoping.sent a couple of new me pics to my brother and he said that i look so different, have lost a total of 87 lbs, started getting rid of my bigger clothes so that i won’t have anything to fall back on, only gonna go forward..well bed for me, good nite.

Well here it is the weekend and what a week this was. husband was bed bound all week and isn’t doing too much better.work has been messed up, went from liking my job to totally can’t stand it, i like working with alz. residents, but the company i work for is so unfair, got in big time trouble for being two minutes late, because an ex-employee stopped me out in the parking lot.i so bad wanted to sit down and munch out, when i finally went on the unit, they were serving a huge memoral day cake, but i resisted temptation and had a can of diet root-beer.so as i’m writing this. i’m sooo proud of myself ,i’ve conquered resisting temptation…no sneaking, no cheating, no nothing..told myself that i’m not gonna let other people control how i live my life. i have came this far on my weight loss that i’m not gonna turn back now, one good thing about this week i went out and bought a digital camera, never liked my pic taken in the past, but i’ve been taking pics with my cell phone and decided that it was time..even had one taken in my swim suit..so even tho i’m going thru tough times, i have the accomplishment that i’ve pretty much stayed on track with my different way of eating.well got a load of laundry to do, and gotta be at work in four hours. it will be a good day, i refuse to let anyone mess it up.

i made it thru today, short at work as usual, which made a longer day. interview tomorrow, hope it goes well. more money but i gotta drive further.don’t like the idea of having to pay more for gas but this job will be worth it and then in nine months they set you up with a office at home. so i’m praying all goes well. well gotta get to bed earlier than my 3 a.m., because the interview is early, and i have to go to work tomorrow.food wise i did excellent, can hardly wait until weigh day tuesday. my days off suck, because i still feel tempted to cheat.well good nite…
