a kick in the pants

for myself! I haven't weighed in a while, but knew I wasn't being careful. Anyway, what with Easter goodies and birthday goodies (my daughter) and late night eating I was still shocked when I got on the scale this morning. 5 pounds! How can it go on so fast and come off so hard! So, I'll just stick a "kick me" sign on my own back.

Weight Wednesday

Sorry, I missed last week, didn't get a chance to weigh. This week I am down a little. I do so great most of the day, but about supper time I just want to eat and never stop! What's up with that?

weight wednesday, make that thursday

Our morning routine was off yesterday, and I did not get a chance to weigh myself. I did that this morning, and it was worse than I feared. I spent all weekend eating out and was not as careful as I should have been the last few days.
So, I hate to admit it, but I gained 2lbs this week.
Back to square one; why do I do that to myself?

weight wednesday

I am joining Nickernoodle (I really need to learn how to do links) in weight Wednesday. So I started my journey last week. No, I am not going to tell you how much I weighed, I won't even tell my family. But, as of this morning I am down 2.5 lbs. That is really good for me, and I do not expect that much every week. But at least it is a great start!

its a new year, will anything really change?

So now is when I make all kinds of promises to myself about this year being different! I will lose weight, become organized, keep a cleaner house, be a better mother, spend more time reading my Bible and praying, and on and on. But, at the end of the year will I truly see any change in myself? Why is it so hard to make these changes when I know they are for the better?

I did change one thing, the look of my blog! But being a blog baby, it took quite a bit to get it changed and I lost all my extras. Computer literate, I am not!

I heart my scale!

Or do I? The dumb thing says I lost 5!!! yes, you are reading that right, pounds this week. The only problem is, I wasn't trying and my clothes don't fit any looser. So, when I start my diet tomorrow and get back on my scale next Monday, it will probably take back those 5 I didn't really lose, and I will have no idea if I'm up or down or what? And it is only a few months old, so I can't blame it on the age of the scale.
