Im ready for a break

Im so tired and instead of posting this I should be in the bed passed out asleep. This weekend was BUSY and I dont remember stopping at all. Marty flew in on Friday & I picked him up from the airport that morning, we picked up Hayden from school, came home long enough to unpack his bag and went to get a hair cut. My poor hubbie looked like a wolley bugger!! After that I came home and cooked a real meal for the first time in 30 days. I went to pick Noah up from school came home sat on the couch with my hubby and kids for about and hour and then a friend of ours called and wanted us to come eat with them. Ugh now I have to shower and wash my hair just to go eat, I really just wanted to go to bed. Early Saturday morning another wonderful rain storm came in and when we got up our backyard looked like a lake, but it turned out to be a beautiful day and we went to the ballpark for Hayden's first tball game of the season. They did a a great joba nd it was funt to watch!! Came home from the ball fields so I could get ready to go out to eat for my birthday. Sunday was family portraits and then come home and get Marty packed and ready to go back to Virginia. Because of all the wonderful weather we had we had to take the long way (interstate) to Mobile & we had to leave by 3:30 am from our house to get to the airport on time for him to print his ticket out. Im tired and ready for bed. My grandmother who has heart problems and is sick with pneumonia has to have more blood work done tomorrow morning 7 I am PRAYING that they do not admit her to the hospital. My mother who takes care of her and my dad is overwhelmed and tired herself, so if meemaw goes to the hospital tomorrow then Ill be sleeping there tomorrow night. I hope she gets better I dont like knowing that she is so sick. I leave for Virginia on friday and Im spending the weekend up there, so I can only pray that she is better by then.
Sorry this is so long and boring, ill try to do better once Kelli can show me the loops!!!

Random thoughts

Ok so I weighed myself this morning because it has been a full week that I have been taking my new diet pill. I have lost a total of 9 lbs since last Tuesday. So that means I only have 21lbs left to reach my goal weight. I still think I need to photo shop my head on a Victoria secret model that has the bathing suit I want so that Ill know how ill look when I loose all my weight!!!
Anyways, this weekend I'm turning 29 but as a friend once told me I am as young as I feel so I think I'm going to be 25 again. I'm feeling young!! I'm ready for this weekend though because my husband decided to come home for the weekend!! It will be a busy weekend though because Hayden has opening ceremonies for tball and probably a game and we are having family portraits done...FINALLY. Ive only been waiting since November of last year to get them done. It will be a busy weekend but what I'm looking forward to is the next weekend when I get to fly out to Virginia!!
Yesterday Marty called to talk and proceeded to tell me that a friend of his wrecked his motorcycle today. If you don't know my hubby has a girlfriend which is his motorcycle. Anyways, his friend hurt his leg and had to have surgery today...and he has no health insurance. What I'm getting at with this is Marty told me a couple of weeks ago that when he comes home in April that him and another guy are going to be riding there motorcycles back to Virginia. And this is what is going through my mind....
-I need to look up all the area codes for the states he is traveling in so that if he gets hurt ill know what state he is in if I get a phone call (which I hope not to get)
-What if something happens to him, what will I do??
When he goes riding it is so nerve racking because he never knows where he is going to go because he is just going to ride...UGH PLEASE JUST TELL ME WHERE YOU ARE GOING IN CASE SOMETHING HAPPENS TO YOU ILL KNOW WHERE TO LOOK FOR YOU.
He doesn't seem to comprehend that though which ticks me off sometimes. If you are wondering yes I have rode with him and every time I do I am praying the WHOLE time that I'm on that bike because the only thing on my mind are my children. I know I shouldn't be riding on it but it can be fun at times. But with more and more people getting hurt it makes me not want to ride anymore. Hey I ran over him on his old motorcycle before so now I don't like getting behind a person on a motorcycle.
Hopefully in the next couple of weeks I can get this blog looking cute. Ill be visiting Kelli so she can show me more stuff to do with it, she showed me some this weekend but I obviously need another lesson.
More next week on how my bday weekend with my husband turns out, who knows I may be ready for him to go back!!! LOL

Losing Weight (again)

Thursday, March 19, 2009

Losing some weight

Ok so I went to the doctor on Tuesday and in the past 2 months I have only lost 2 pounds, actually I think I lost a lil more than that but I gained it all back. So I tell the doctor that I cant afford a pill that is going to cost me $130.00 each month. He tells me that excercise is not the only thing that is going to make me loose the weight that I need to change the way I eat too. Well duh....I know that but some things are just soooo gooood to eat. So I didn't even have to ask he gave me a prescription for phenermine and a B12 shot and told me to come back in 21 days. If you have never took phenermine before then let me give you a picture of what I am like when I do take one. First as you all know I can tend to be a lil hyper sometimes and don't like to sit for long periods of time, when I got my prescription filled on Tuesday I took a half of a pill. I had a little bit more energy than usual but not much. On Wednesday I took a whole one....wham bam thank you mam I was on the go all day long. I didn't go to bed till after 11pm last night (and that is LATE for me) and I got up at 5am this morning and cleaned both bathrooms, and did 3 loads of laundry all before the boys got up. Today I took another whole one and have been on the go all day long again. I have also lost 4 pounds since Tuesday. I don't want to loose it fast cause I don't want it coming back on me. In the past 2 days I have done good on my eating too...well I say I have the only thing I have ate today is a piece of toast, a banana & some popcorn. I know its not healthy but I'm not hungry. I have drank about 90 ounces of water cause that pill makes you so cotton mouth which leads to peeing all day long (like every 10 minutes) Anyways I hope that this will give me the umph that I need to loose those last 30-35 pounds that need to come off. After that I will have to work on making my body look better!!!

My GREAT Friends!!

I have great friends!! Since my husband has been gone I have not spent a weekend alone. The first weekend he was gone I went out with Robbie & Ashley both nights & this weekend...well I went out Friday night and Saturday night I was asleep on my couch by 8:30. Friday night my friends Kelli, Karen, Kim & Tracy took me out for my birthday a lil early & we had fun. We ate at Alfrescos in Ocean Springs and it was soooo gooood. Kelli got me a strawberry cake it is was wonderful...thanks Kelli!!! After our good eating we went to walmart (woo hoo) it doesn't matter where we go out at we always have to stop by a store to shop for something!! Then we went to Karen's house and talked till 1 am. That is why I was asleep by 8:30 Saturday night. It was all worth it though. I miss not having my husband here with me but having good friends that you can always count on makes up for alot of the loneliness.
So to all my friends whether you read this or not I'm thankful everyday to have you in my life and I love all of you!!

Countdown

I'm counting down till I go see my hubby in Virginia, 23 more days and it can NOT get here soon enough. I think one of the hardest parts about him being gone is going to bed alone every night. I love having someone to snuggle up to every night so its been hard going to bed at a decent hour since I have nothing to snuggle with.. :(
Well what can I say I'm just going to have to deal with it & so will he. But he has a small advantage and that is the hotel he is staying in has a fluffy mattress that he has fallen in love with and it has 5 big fluffy pillows with it so he has something to snuggle with and he tells me every night. I may like the mattress too when I go up there and ill have to come home and sell mine and get me a new one!! HAHA
So my diet isn't going so well just yet, it is almost that time of the month and I eat like CRAZY when it is almost time, which is crazy to me. So when I go for my weight check next week that is going to be my excuse and I will tell Dr Madonia that it has been like this for 2 months since I saw him last. I'm sure he will not believe me though!
I need a meal plan and I'm sure if I had one it would be easy to loose the weight. I haven't been walking at night because Kelli has a bum knee, so instead I have started walking on my lunch break everyday at the Pascagoula beach. Not a whole lot to look at (or smell) but it gets me out of the office and I feel better after my walk too. Some of the girls at work have joined me too & they love it too. Ill be glad when Kelli's knee is better though so we can walk at night too, I tend to sleep better when I walk at night.
What I really need is a miracle and that miracle would be for me to wake up one morning and I have the body that I want..that is more like a dream though.
Have you ever wanted to contact the people who are in those commercials for the over the counter diet pills and say to them "SERIOUSLY" you did not loose 40 pounds by just taking that pill and it sure as heck didn't give you that body. I really want to ask them who does there photo shop on the pics so I can use them and get a hot body for my pics. Whatever people my body isn't going to be that slim in 6 weeks from taking some hoodia and slimquick. Maybe if I had some lipo and a tummy tuck.
OK I'm over that, maybe I can loose at least 30 more pounds by may...it is possible, if I work at it.
We will see.....

Field trip to see Tom Sawyer

I'm tired so I'm sure there is going to be alot of mistakes. Today I went with Noah and the second grade class to see Tom Sawyer at the Seangar (or however you spell it) theater. to tell you truth and yes I know this is sad but I don't know the story of Tom Sawyer. It was a cute little performance and would have liked it even more if we didn't have to sit in the nose bleed section. Anyways, I had Kim Benefield sitting next to me & I leaned over and told her that I thought I was watching HSM 3 because they would be talking & then just start singing. There is a whole story to the HSm 3 but ill tell you about that at another time. All in all it was fun and I enjoyed spending the day with Noah.
Marty called me today and asked if I wanted to fly to Virginia the first weekend in April.....uh yeah I want to come see you. He didn't have to ask twice. I'm going to book my flight tomorrow!! I'm excited about going and cant wait to see my hubby....ALONE!!! And to all of you who don't know me well I can promise you I will not come home pregnant. It would be fun but it cant happen again cause Marty had his tubes tied 5 years ago. Anyways I cant wait to go!!
I'm going to bed. Good Night to all!!

Im still learning

Im still learning how to do this, so please bare with me until I can get Kelli over here to help me!! As im typing this Im watching The BIGGEST LOSER & cooking brownies. They smell wonderful, but my butt doesnt need them or my hips & stomach. Im not even making them for me, im making them for the church dinner tommorrow night. I just have to keep telling myself "NO" but its hard. Well as you all know my husband is in Virginia working. So it is just me and my boys. So far everything has been smooth. Marty calls everyday to talk to us and tell us that he misses us. He sent us pics of the snow yesterday. To tell you the truth I would love to see some "REAL" snow but I dont like being cold so I guess I will not be visiting him anytime soon.
Ok so how many of you listened to NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK over 10 years ago (or however many years ago that was). ?? Yes you may think im crazy but I really want to go to the NKOTB concert next weekend at the IP in biloxi, but im sorry guys im not forking over $150 to see you sing "THE RIGHT STUFF" everybody sing it with me...OOOOO OOOO OOOO THE RIGHT STUFF!!! Yea i know im crazy but you know you were singing it!!
Well like I said when I started this im making brownies and watching the BIGGEST LOSER. Well im not the biggest loser tonight cause I just ate a brownie with ice cream on it. MMMM it was good.
Ive been on a weight loss kick for many years but this summer I decided to get a little more serious. I was walking EVERY afternoon, normally around 2 to 2 1/2 miles a night. I felt great, I slept well at night and was awake before 6 every morning, I also had a lot of energy during the day. When I went to my "FEMALE" doctor in July I talked to him about a diet pill that I wanted to try. He gave a prescription for MERIDIA. I started the pill and it worked really good, but when school started in August I stopped walking. I was trying to get my boys into a routine adn while I was doing that I got out of mine. I have lost a total of 20 pounds since July but I still have 30 more to go. I am not taking the meridia anymore because it is $129 for 30 pills. So im trying to loose it the other way, diet and exercise. but now that marty is gone it is going to be a slight challenge to walk at night with Kelli. But im not going to give up. By July I want to have lost the last 30 pounds and be in at least a size 8!! But eating brownies will not help me.
Ok so im tired and have a long day tomorrow. Im going on a field trip with Noah and all of the 2nd grade from ECLE. Lord help me!!
Good night to all, maybe ill have something more intersting to say tomorrow!!

Ok so if this looks retarde im sorry. It will probably take me a while to figure this out just like it took me awhile to figure out myspace and facebook. So please bare with me!!
