Another survey

I forgot I was going to do this one too – fast, though!

1. Cola:  Classic Coke.  I am now, however, learning to like Diet Coke with Splenda – not bad!

2. Sneakers:  whatever kind I find – generic or Chic, usually!

3. Hair care:  Frizz-ease lotion helps a LOT!  Otherwise, whatever moisturizing shampoo & conditioner I happen to have on hand.

4. Small electronics:  ?  Probably Sony, Panasonic, not sure.

5. Automobile:  1996 Nissan Sentra, and a 2002 Chrysler Town and County

I’ve really cut back on my computer time —

and it shows! My house is much cleaner and I think I’ve really caught up a lot on paperwork. I probably won’t be here that much now as it’s summer break and my kids will be home all the time — except for brief periods in the morning while one or the other will have preschool/special needs camp/bible school, etc. I haven’t really been reading as much either – but will come back when I have time.

Pray this summer goes well for us – it can be a challenging time as Chris is so used to going to school and doesn’t understand why he’s not going now!! And here I was all set up to blow up the little wading pools and my stupid air pump is GONE – I can’t find it. It’s too hot to walk to the playground. So he’s in the shower AGAIN.

But, all in all, things are much better than LAST summer…

I LOST 5 POUNDS!!! so far…. 50 more to go!

Back on the healthy lifestyle

so no turning back, right?

I can’t remember if I posted about my dream here. Last Wed. the 18th I had a dream that I was a lot thinner and that I was REALLY happy about it. When I woke up, I was like, YES, I need to start over, and KEEP at it, and lose the weight.

I didn’t get a starting weight, but as of last Saturday I was 181. So I don’t know what I started at. I do know back in February I was 184.5. I have been up and down since then like a Yoyo between 180 & 184.

SO I’m counting it 5.5 pounds lost as I AM NOW 179!!! I am very excited about this.

Next goal – 170 by July. I don’t really care if it’s early July or late July, as I know it can take varying time periods to lose 9 pounds. Just so it’s sometime in July. I also need to start taking my measurements again.

Another goal – start doing spot exercises again in addition to my walking.

184.5/179/125

Dream (weight journal)

Hi everyone – I had a strange dream last night that was so real – first I dreamt I was really in shape and eating well and had lost a lot of weight. Then in the dream I realized I was asleep, but determined to get back to getting myself in shape and thinner. Then I think the dream switched to something else and later on I woke up and didn’t even remember that part of the dream.

Just sitting here though I remembered it again and was like, wow, I really need to get back on the plan. I’m going to try and start today.  I’ll have to post this in my diet journal, and I really need to find more communities to put that in as the one it’s in is hardly travelled.

I have been so tired and overwhelmed lately, maybe changing my health will help me. 

I am having fun with all the activities we’re doing right now for end of the year for all three kids in school, but boy is it busy!  I’m getting discouraged with how behind I’m getting on housework!

Oh well, this too shall pass, right?  then the kids will be home for the summer and I won’t get anything done then either ;P

Love, d
