Weigh in day!!!

Okay so I have hit that point I knew I would where it is 2lbs a week. Which is fine it just seems a little frustrating because of how much weight I still have to loose. I can do it though right? Of course right.
Today my sister is coming to see me which I am very excited about but my house was cleaner a week ago, still I am excited she is coming. We are going to Sam's club to split a membership and get some stuff. I am going to check their prices on apples (for my breakfast specialty)
I still have a ton of "healthier" chili left so that is what Tracy, the kids and I are going to have for lunch, I will make Mr. Pickypants a grilled cheese or baked potato.
Anyway...
Two more pounds down and many more to go before I sleep, but I am only 5 away from my first goal and from meeting my pledge on the Biggest Loser Pound for Pound challenge so there you go.
Blog atcha later.

Tomorrow is weigh in day

And let me just tell you it had better be worth it because I have been wanting to do nothing but eat all day and I kept myself in check so....
Let's just say if I didn't lose I will be somewhat upset to say the least.
I am working towards a healthier me though and that is what really matters so...
Tomorrow when Tracy & kids come down I might see if she wants to try the fitness center at my complex. I should probably warn her though so that she doesn't come wearing a skirt or anything.

still on track and feeling great about it

I have to admit I am proud of myself. I have stuck to it for three weeks now and will continue to do so. It feels good and I have more energy, my back feels so much better and once I start exercising it is only going to get better.
I can do this.

gotta keep it short

I have ground turkey taco meat going on the stove so I can't blog long.
Just wanted to stop in and say I am keeping on track and fighting the munchies for all I am worth.
I did have some half & half in my coffee today but you know every once in a while something like that isn't going to completely derail the train.
Now if I had added half & half to a carmel macchiato that would have been a different story.
Ortega(TM) now puts out a Whole Grain Corn Taco shell, which is healthier and has fewer carbs for Greg which is always a big plus.
I am very excited about being good....does that make me a freak?
(I can live with that, it wouldn't be the worst reason I have been considered a freak.)
Keep smiling attitude really is everything.

One year

I started blogging on year ago today and look, I am down 39lbs.
That is very good. Not as good as it could have been if I had stayed on track all along but still nothing to sneeze at.
Did good today, which is good because Greg & I had a "cheat day" yesterday although considering I had only had 1/2 cup of lowfat yogurt, 1 med apple and 1/3 cup of low fat granola I don't know how much damage I really could have done.
Anyway I am feeling soooooo much better. My back has improved (wonder of wonders, drop a toddler and all of the sudden, your back feels better.)
Anyway, I will be having dinner late tonight because Greg is running late from work so I need to tide myself over...oil popped popcorn here I come.
