I have had a friend in town for the last couple weeks. She arrived on the 12th from Louisiana to spend some time with her mom. Her mom has found out recently that she has Stage 4 clear cell kidney cancer and there is nothing left that the doctors can do. I've spent a lot of time with my friend and fell off the WW wagon. She will be leaving tomorrow morning at 7 on an Amtrak train headed back to Louisiana and I will be heading back home to get on the WW train. I can't keep eating like this! I want clothes to fit and be cute. I really have no excuse as to why I was eating the way I was. I did attempt to eat right a few times, just didn't happen all day long.  So tomorrow I'm back on!

I made my 7 day chip!

Friend Making Monday

 

FMM: Everyday Things

1) What is your favorite part of an average day?  I like to wake up early when everyone is still sleeping as the house is so still and peaceful. But I'm not really a morning person. I have more energy in the early evening.

2) Is there one food that you eat every single day? If so, what is it?  No. I will some things everyday until they are gone but that's it.

3) Are you an early bird, or do you prefer to sleep in late?  See the answer to question 1.

4) Share one thing that you're looking forward to doing this week.  I'm picking up a old friend at the train station in the early early AM hours. She's coming into town to spend time with her ailing mother.

5) What's for dinner this evening?  Chicken. The family is having lasagna but I'm opting for something healthy.

Adding in some exercise..

So this is my exercise plan on my stationary bike.

Last night was the first time I attempted it. I was a little tingly and my butt was numb from the seat. It felt good to exercise though. I will be aiming for more than 3 times a week though.

Date night and Weight Watchers

Hubby and I had date night on Saturday. He had to work that morning until around lunchtime. Came home with flowers. What a nice surprise! I sure wasn't expecting them.

The other lily just opened this morning. Aren't they pretty?

We then took my youngest and dropped her off with her grandparents and headed out to The Lincoln Lawyer with Matthew McConaughey. Pretty good movie. But then again any movie with him in it is worth watching. He is hot!!

 After the movie we strolled over to Barnes and Noble where I looked around. Why I don't know. I don't buy books anymore I just download them to my Nook Color. Went to Olive Garden for dinner where we waited over an hour to be seated. Didn't mind though as we had popcorn during the movie so we weren't really hungry yet. After being seated and ordering we enjoyed each other's company. Finally dinner arrived, we ate and then decided we just didn't have room left for dessert. I stopped at Starbucks on the way home for a Skinny Caramel Macchiato..yum! Got home watched some tv and fell asleep by 11. Yep we are old!!! LOL! He was tired cause he worked that morning. Me, I'm always tired.

So, today I was procrastinating on signing up online for Weight Watchers. I can't seem to lose any weight. I've been trying to do it at home on my own but it's not working. Hopefully having everything at my fingertips will work. I will make it work. Otherwise its a waste of money. I want to see what I'm eating right there in front of me in black and white. I write it down myself but it's just ...I don't know, I can't explain it. Either way, this has to work. I have to make it work! It will work!  Wish me luck.

Starting over...........

I seriously have no idea why I can't seem to stay on track with Weight Watchers. I know I need to lose the weight. Just can't seem to keep myself motivated. I gained 2 lbs this week. And I'm ok with that. I'll lose it this week.

I joined up with the 7 day chip group on Twitter. I will go 7 days on Weight Watchers and stay in my points range. When I achieve this I will be recognized and given a 7 day chip spot on a website. It's sponsered by http://www.bradgansberg.com/7daychip.html go check it out.

Today is Day 1 and I will make it to Day 7. Who knows from there I may do the 30 day chip.
