Friday- Fail day

I just have to confess my diet today was absolute terd. It all started with the pot luck at work which had a buffet of the following; Lasagna, 2 mac and cheeses, sloppy joe, buffalo chicken dip and thank goodness two bowls of fruit! Of course I started my meal with all intentions of sticking to my diet! I had an entire bowl of fruit (delish!) then had a little mac and cheese (each one) lasagna and buffalo chicken dip. I also ate one of my sandwiches my fudge grahams (100 cals though!) then Miranda called me and we went to dinner at PF Changs. It was also delish and I hadn't had it in years. I filled up on Wonton soup (What's a Wonton?? Don't worry I asked. It's a steamed....dumpling....thing) and lettuce wraps before eating some almond and cashew chicken. Then we went back to our apartment where Chris had to keep our tradition of pizza Friday and then in turn I had to stick with the tradition of eating pizza on Friday! Dessert was 2 small bowls of the meal I had put in the crockpot this morning of chicken, asparagus, mushrooms, and potatoes.

I am not adding up my weight watchers points but I do have a plan to eat small tomorrow at Bucca Di Bepo then get back on the train. I cannot stand to lose 4.8 lbs just to gain! Not again. Never again!

Goodnight Old Man and little lady

I know this blog will seem stupid to many and that's okay. Today I found out that two of my parents cats are missing, and more than likely have gone on to kitty heaven to chase mice and balls of yarn for eternity, thanks to the coyotes. I just wanted to give a shout out to my little buddies. Cami was a precious little lady who loved to be outside and thrived when being loved on. I'll miss you little girl.

Spikers, old spikers. You were mine from the beginning. My mom brought him home to me after I was having a hard time fitting in at school. She knew I always wanted a cat and there happened to be a man at her workplace who were looking for a good home for their cat since they were soon to be retired and traveled a lot and left him alone. My mom without even asking my dad if it was okay that she brought home an inside cat walked through the door with this cute old man and my heart soared! A cat! Just for me! I was kinda obsessed with cats in my younger years I should point out and sorry to Spike for scaring him so that he hid inside our old dryer for at least 4 days... Anyways I loved him and he really had no interest in me lol but he was adorable and what I always wanted. He was always pretty independent, even more so than a normal cat. He loved to bite the top of my head and cuddle up on the couch and just be hugged. He lived a long life, the guesstimate is around 18-20 years old, and most of that was spent outside! I'm still hoping that you both decided to hitch a ride out of that crappy ole town instead of becoming dinner for a coyote. 

Either way, I do feel as though I owe you a thank you Spike and Cami. You made me a whole person, animals have a way of doing that. I loved taking care of you and hope you are at peace. I owe you about a million hugs in heaven, sorry I was kind of a rotten teenager and ignored you after I found myself again. Love you. :)

Weight Watchers

It's been a full week since my first weight watchers meeting and I have lost 4.8 lbs. It has been relatively easy which I realized today is probably because my allowed points is so high since I'm a bigger lady. So I try to think of the future and adjusting my diet for the rest of my life and not just for now.



 I did go over my points today by 11, but it was that kinda day! Cold, snowy, dreary, just blah! I think this could be good for me. I'm happy, for the first time in awhile with almost everything in my life. I just need to slow down and stop trying to speed up the process and instead just roll with the punches. This is my life, and I want to enjoy it!
