So, this girl is tired...to every sense of that word. I have been up now for more than 24 hours, but I did get a little nap in. Today was my first day working for home health...nothing exciting happened, we just watched movies. I was able to get a mere tiny walk in with Gizzy this morning before the heavens opened up. I did find a scale at work today and I weighed myself (saved me a trip to a ww meeting) and found out I lost some weight. I know that it is to be expected, I am just going to keep doing what I am doing and as long as I don't gain weight this week, I know I will be GTG. Anyway, sorry this is a short post, but I have got to get some sleep. Hope you have a great week!
Happy Exercising!

122 days
So, I have come to the conclusion that days off of exercising are well spent, especially when you are sleep deprived. I must have been because I slept all day...and seriously, I mean all day. I slept until 5 pm which is way later than I usually sleep, and I was out cold by 0750 again something unusual. However, that said, I will be on like my 3rd wind all day tomorrow since I leave here at 0715 and then I work tomorrow morning from 0900 until 1630. Don't worry Mom will be in the same building as me, so if I am too tired to drive home she already offered me a ride home. I am not too worried, I can sleep tomorrow night like a normal person as well as all week. I just have to get the dogs walked in the morning then again when I get home before week...that is if the weather holds up. Mom says it is supposed to pour all day tomorrow, so hopefully it will wait until after I at least get the morning walk back in..I need to get back on track with exercising. Anyway, that is all for today...Not to much going on this week. Happy Palm Sunday.
Happy exercising....

123 days (Saturdays post just late)
Posting late apparently is my new thing. LOL. So Saturday was Shae's bday party which meant that people were coming over and that I would have to do without all of the sleep that I am used to. To top that off I got out of work way late and couldn't walk the dogs in the morning. I did wake up and spend some time with the party goers (sorry I was such a party pooper I was just exhausted). I laid down and overslept my alarm by 30 minutes so I was not able to walk the dogs in the afternoon either. I have stopped beating myself up about it, I am going to have days like that, I just have to try harder to make sure that I get at least one walk in a day. Really that is all that happened. My weigh in day is on Monday...I found a meeting at 7pm EST. Hopefully I will still be awake. I say hopefully bc I work Sunday night, and then Mon morning I start my first day at my other job. It shouldn't be too bad...I have off all week then until Friday night. Well, not really off, but I will be on a day shift schedule until Friday when I work Friday day and then again Friday night. I will be ok... only pushing my self hard until the wedding...Hoping to get a house by the end of the year. Well...That is all for now. Have a great Sunday!

124 days (Fridays post just late)
So again, I missed my morning walk with my kids. But, I so enjoyed sleep so much better. At least I walked the afternoon with them even though Joe just wanted me to stay in bed and snuggle. I also continue to do 8 minute arms and ww of course. My weigh in day is quickly approaching and man am I nervous. I have to remember that this might be higher than expected bc my start weight was what I weighed a month ago so might not be a weight at where I was actually a week ago. That being said...that will be my starting point and I will go from there. I also know that I will only get 1 walk in tomorrow er today, but I will try to get 2. Sat is Shae's bday party and I am going to walk the dogs as soon as I get home like I always do on work days, then try to pass out until people show up...and if I need to escape, I will walk them again and hopefully will have time for a little nap before I work again. That is all for now. Really, my life is boring outside of walking the dogs and work and all. I will keep you posted if something fun happens.
Until then...
Happy exercising
Until then...

125 and counting
SO, I have come to the realization that I really shouldn't dwell on the fact that I might not always get 2 walks in with the dogs, as long as I get one in and make it a good walk then I should just be as happy with that. I remember when I used to have a gym membership, if I missed one day, I missed weeks at a time. I am proud of myself that I took yesterday off and then jumped in the saddle again today. I only did one walk , but the one walk was longer than normal with even some sprinting in it, and as soon as I was finished I went right into the 8 minute arms. One more week and I think I am going to add weights to the workout. I have been doing ww now for 4 days, and I just can't believe how hard it is for me to eat all of the points. Today was a better day, I think I only have 2.5 points left...yesterday I had 12 points left. I know I need to eat consistantly in order to lose the weight, so I am going to make consciencious decisions about making sure I use all of my points. Really, that is all for today. Nothing exciting happened except that it was 66 degrees. Have a good week!

126 days...
Today, I totally felt like a bum. It's not my fault I swear! My dogs are on my night shift schedule, so when I don't have to work, it really mess them up. I was soo worried about them waking up my dad, so I stayed up with them. It even got to the point that as soon as I was ready for bed, it was play time for them. So, needless to say, at 300 this morning I finally got to go to sleep; unfortunately, 4 hours of sleep is not enough for me, so I slept through my alarm. I didn't even wake up until 1100. Apparently I was exhausted. Anyway, I had all intentions of walking them this afternoon, but the weather has other plans. It is raining rather hard right now and there is no way my dogs are going to walk in this. Trust me, I just took them out to pee and they were flipping out. Anyway, I did do the 8 minute arms so at least I feel like I did something, and I am sticking with my ww plan, so at least I am doing something productive. Ohh speaking of ww...if you want to try something new the Kashi Good Friends Cereal in Cinna Raisin is yummy and is only 3 points. I also enjoy the GoLean Crunchy Chocolate Peanut butter granola bar which is also only 3 points. That granola bar is really filling. Anyway, that is all for now. The weather is supposed to be nicer tomorrow so we will be back on track tomorrow. That is all for now.
Peace, Love and Applesauce!
