Day to day

My favorite soap opera is As the World Turns. I started watching it when I was working from 8- 5:30 and I had an hour and a half lunch so there was enough time to watch a whole soap when everyone else went back to work. I am spoiled now because my wonderful husband brought a TiVo into my life and it protect my little world of a soap opera so I can watch it when ever I want to. Just having the time to watch it is like.... oh I forgot so I watch five minutes here ten minutes there. The only time I really get to watch it is when I am folding laundry on Sunday afternoons and now I have to compete with Nascar....ggggrrrrrr...... Heavenly Father must love Nascar.

Lately I have been trying to find the motivation to wake up 15 minutes earlier to workout, but all thats come of it is sleeping in. I can't count sleeping as a workout can I?

Today I went with my co-workers and I got a free massage for 40 minutes.... Ohhh it was so nice!!! I almost fell asleep it was wonderful and sorta painful at the same time but I do feel so good.

Losing Weight

It has been so hard for me. Last week I lost 6 pounds and I was so excited. One rule of thumb is that when your "friend" comes over for a week you don't lose weight as much because of water weight gain. Well this week I only lost one pound. I also have the cravings of sweets and salty. It would be easy but I stop myself by buying snacks and leaving them at home and munching on them constantly. Days like to day where I am not at work, Tyler had a dr appointment, are REALLY hard because I eat more when I am bored. I have been VERY bored today and so I have probably killed my diet for the week.
The best thing that I can do is portion out in my head how many points I get throughout the morning, then how much I will allow myself for lunch. Mid afternoon is the worst and then I scrounge my points at night just to eat. I lost 50 pounds a few years ago, I know I can do it again I just have to retrain myself.
This little man is my inspiration!
