I took off yesterday to get somethings done. I am stressed!! Washed clothes, cleaned up a tiny bit, went to cleaners twice in the morning, picked up kids, took them to Duke Ellington for tests, realized they get out of school in a matter of DAYS!!!! Traffic was tighter then expected getting there, visited friend in hospital, very pesimistic person, picked up kids, they came out late, hot out, traffic was silly going home, going over everything I need to do for DC prom thingy. Go back to cleaners and pick up clothes, beauty supply store spend more then wanted to. Ended up showering and blow drying DC hair, went to sleep after ironing blouse while watching made. he he he
This morning stressing about all that I still need to do before prom tonight
necklace, nails, hair, wash car, her girlfriends hair, purse and who knows what else :faint:
How personal can I get on this thing......have you ever gased and it felt really good to have it out but it stinks...:eek:
I have gone to several threads/forums this morning and I can't even gocus to get my thoughts together.

Today is a Gorgeous Day
· Teresita · 05/22/2006 10:58
I decided to take Friday for myself. I went to the park early and did my 3 miles.
Saturday I walked my first official 5K for Diabetes Association w/Pooky,Karen, LSasha, Pat and Jackie. It was a great since of accomplishment.:clap2:
Sunday I went to the park early and walked with Karen. It always great to get a walk in and over with.
9 miles for the weekend.....I am so excited about where all these miles are taking my body. THE WEATHER WAS ABSOLUTLY GORGEOUS ALL THIS WEEKEND!!! WOW THE SKY AND CLOUDS WERE AWESOME!!!
I can see my body changing. I finally see some more diffrence in my face. My thighs, wow there is actually less of them. LOL (I can't see using the word smaller when talking about my thighs). I think I can keep this walking up because I do see results. I really enjoy seeing the numbers of the scale come down. I am going to ask my sister in law for a scale for my birthday. I still won't be able to weigh on it but it will be a goal. The scale I saw goes up to 350. If I am about 390 now that is 40 pounds.....I could make that a Christmas goal realisticly speaking but I would love to do by fall. You never know.
Weigh in is tomorrow and I am excited. At my unofficaly weigh in last week I gained about a pounds so I know I will have a nice lost this week.

Dream clothes
· Teresita · 05/18/2006 10:17
I put this dress as my dream dress and as I believe it is not a dream, it will become reality. I am not looking to be skinny. I want to be neat. So many fat people just look a ....mess. I don't want to be a mess anymore.
I went shopping with my child last night and shopping is always so traumatic. She was trying on tops and looked unhappy and said she looked pregnant....that hurt because I know the feeling. I was sitting in the dressing room thinking I have lost 65 pounds but I am still a mess. I feel better then I use to sitting in the dressing room looking to a mirror but I have a long way to go.
We went to a second store and and we found a nice top but wasn't sure so we went to payless to check out shoes but of course she has her mothers feet (big) so that wasn't so much fun. We went to another store like the second one and they didn't have anything so I had them to call back and hold the blouse at the second store. She really looked nice in it. Now we just have to look for shoes, jewlery, deal with a little make, hair oh yeah and a purse. The capri suit is black, blouse is green with a beautiful silver flower on the front so silver accesories is it. It is fun but stressful. My child does not really like to take pictures so I am going to get her picture taken that day or the weekend when we do the trial run. LOL
It's going to be ok.

I have to say I am excited about weighing in tomorrow.:whoo:
I'm in the groove of this walking now and it feels good. I really want to add more but once TTC begins I know it will help. I see my body changing a little at a time but I love seeing the numbers coming down on the scale.
459----398---394--- and tomorrow is going to be 390 then 389--385---380---379---375 I just like looking at that number. My birthdayand bandiversary goal 375. At last weight in I was 19 pounds away. :Banane09:Tomorrow should be 15 pounds away. I can do this.
I have 54 days to my bandiversary.
Thank God for all of my support:grouphug:, LBT, MD LB Suuport Group, my child, my friends. They keep me motivated!!!

I thought my eating was worse then it was yesterday. I had about 1200 calories yesterday. It just wasn't meals. So today I took the time to go get a LC meal 150 calories and I have 2 salmon cakes, hopefully I will only eat one. They are about 100 calories a piece so it is really ok but I did not walk yesterday so I want to keep my calories down.
I did do floor exercise last night and I will walk today.:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: I forgot my dag gone shirt again. I need to put one in the car so I don't forget.
