Scale Ho= Guilt as Charged!






Have had a hard time since my last fill. Some days Im so tight I can barely get one meal in without a problem. Yesterday we went for Thai food. It was my first time. It was so good. Fresh vegetables lots of spice. I was so tight couldnt get much ate. On the way to our hotel ten minutes into the ride I had to make them pull over cause I got sick. So embarrassing in front of my friends puking my guts up.

My good guy pal came out to give me a Kleenex. My husband of course stayed in the car. Weak kneed guy. He cant even stand the gurgling sounds I have been making with meals. Not sure if this is normal or not.
Dont know if I need an unfill. I dread the fills I hate to keep going back and forth on this.

Only lost a pound this week but thats better than nothing. Would have expected more because of not eating much but all that does is make your body want to hold onto it even more :(

Fridays BYOC

Copy and paste to your own blog if you so desire! Enjoy!

1. Sun or rain? Roses or tulips? Romantic movie or comedy?
Rain. Makes me want to snuggle with that someone special. Tulips I think are perfect. Roses overdone. Romantic movie. Im not much for movies that make no sense at all.

2. I’ve been sick lately and haven’t eaten in two days – except for ice cream…which leads me to ask – what’s your favorite ice cream flavor?

Butter pecan :)


3. Are you a door locker – in your house and car?
I lock everything.

4. tell me your “go to remedies” for when you are sick?
Only remedy for me is to sleep and sleep some more. Not much of a pill taker.

5. Repeat question: Summarize your week in blog land and in real life.
Blogland:

Blogland I have been super lazy. Havent even read much. Life has been so hectic with work and personal. Heat is making us all bitchy. Ive barely made it on here to post scale pic. I promise to do better :P

Weekly Weigh In

Don't know why the image is crooked :(



I had my second fill this past week. I'm tighter than a virgin. I cant eat in the mornings but I am told this is normal. I do get fuller quicker and am staying satisfied longer. That is a good thing because the last week before fill I could have ate a whole horse. I also had the visit which contributed to the massive hunger.
I am slowly losing. No big numbers but they are moving. I'm back down to wearing alot of 18-20 tops. My ass still isn't getting small in comparison to my top regions.
My food choices are better. Im continuing with the Jenny Craig meals only cause of the convenience of having it already prepared. It saves me from reaching for bad choices. It is an expensive program. I will do it as long as I can. I have to mostly choose chicken foods or ground beef items. They are band friendly. Heres to a new week and moving my butt more. Cooler weather please come soon!

Day 1 of Cleanse

Got my stash for the 30 day cleanse. One pill in morning and one in the evening for three days. Then after that it will be two in morning then 2 in evening for 30 days. Have to eat clean as possible. Whole foods, plenty of water. After this initial cleanse Im going to do a liver detox and a metal detox. Then my body will be free of toxins. Might as well start fresh as possible.

I am an admitted product junkie.
If its new, smells yummy, looks like I will benefit or just because I heard about if from someone else. I will buy it and try it. I need rehab for this addiction.





I do believe I need to do this to get things moving in right direction. Im also getting rid of household chemicals and going to go green!





Lets see what the husband thinks about it. he already wont eat some healthy stuff I am making. I made a great salad with thinly sliced zucchini cherry tomatoes and red onions with a little garlic seasoning, e.v.o.o, salt, pepper and some feta. It was delicious. He didnt want to even eat it cause the zucchini wasnt fried!

BYOC

It’s time for BYOC – Bring Your Own Crazy…a couple of questions we answer to get to know each other better and to give our blogging brains a break! Copy and paste to your own blog and enjoy!

1. If you were asked to symbolize yourself as an animal – which animal would you be?

It would definitely be a cat. Cats only want you to mess with them when they want to be messed with. Dont pet us dont interrupt our naps, we want you when we want you lol. If I come rubbing up against you Im in a good mood. Pet me talk to me lol. My family gets this :)



2. Did you ever play an organized sport – with coaches, rules and scoring? Tell us about it.

No only sports I played were in gym, not very coordinated here. Tried out for cheer leading in catholic school and messed up during a routine. I said a curse word and well the nuns didnt want me on the squad lol.







3. When did you start shaving your legs?

As soon as I could. Not that I had any just wanted to be grown up. I am generally not a hairy person and I love it. I cant stand body hair. hairy men freak me out I think its gross. I would love my man to shave everything off.
This is not attractive:



4. When you’re in a crabby – pissy – want to stab everyone you see kind of mood – what do you do to get out of it or do you revel in it?
I used to eat. Now I just go to my room pout, take a nap or just generally take it on the nearest person. Not really but I have been known to blow when pushed. Most people try not to piss me off. Its better fr them that way :)




5. Repeat question: Summarize your week in blogland and in real life.

Blog land I try and keep up and read those lap band blogs and comment when I can. I joined the BOOBS challenge see the link to the right.

In real life I finally bought my daughter home from Arkansas she is staying with my mom. I have worked my butt off trying to get caught up with work. I am trying to eat as clean as possible and bought a cleanse I cant wait to take. Drinking my water, taking my vitamins and even rode my bike. I try and ride as long as possible but thats only 15 min and my legs start to tremble and I cant breathe.But I will keep doing it cause I feel like Ive done something.

Focus Off

10 days ago my daughter was in a terrible car accident. We have been struggling with some of her bad choices that she has made the last year. She is a beautiful intelligent woman who has been spiraling out of control without going into it, to say it has been emotionally hard is an understatement. Just when I am needing to totally focus on me I havent been able to.
Today we brought her home but not to our house but my mom's. I just cant have her here. I am raising her son at moment and it is just best that she gets well somewhere else.

Traveling back and forth between here in Missouri & Arkansas has not been good on my new lifestyle. Have made good choices on food for the most part but have not been able to exercise worth a darn. I did get a nice bike ride one day in but that is about it.
No excuses right. Just life sometimes gets in the way.

Tomorrow is end of work week but its going to be a start of new one for me.
I need to get sElFiSh for awhile. make myself a priority. I have been reading Suzanne Sommers "Sexy Forever" its about the toxicity in our lives. Very good health information.
I knew alot of this information before when I was on HCG and went on a detox. Well that
part I will do again. Going back to eating clean and doing a total body detox with



Ill post some results about the cleanse. My body is at a stand still. Not losing and this is supposed to be my honeymoon stage. :(But Im not gaining. Everyone says they can see a difference so must have lost some inches. The cleanse should help with weight loss by cleaning out my system of all toxins that would keep the fat not wanting to release.

I recommend reading her book.

Back to Basics- BOOBS Challenge

Well my first challenge and Im going to go for it.

Click the link you still might have time to get in on it.





Im trying to get my scale pic to load. Unfortunately I never weigh at night and it is showing a 7 pound difference since my last weigh in :(

What do I attribute this to? STRESS for one. (Daughter in hospital) My Starbucks mocha frap might be another but it was only one. And I wasnt eating much else.
Anyhow I am going to get my butt in gear!


BYOC Late

It's FRIDAY(sunday) so that means it's BYOC - Bring Your Own Crazy! We answer a couple of questions in an effort to get to know each other better and to give our blogging brains a break! Copy and paste and answer in your own blogs if you'd like!! ENJOY!!

Let's stick with the pictures/exercise and shoe topic and post a picture of (or describe) your work out shoes.

Right now they are skechers. I need a new pair.


Again with the summer/hot theme of the week....what does your current swimsuit look like?

I must say it looks good on me :)





Do you lay out, fake bake, sunless spray tan or use tanning lotion?

I do both fake bake and lay out. I love the sun though my dermatologist told me not to tan my face. So I spf 50 on face. My hubby bought me a tanning bed about 4 years ago before a cruise we were going on. He didnt want to go to a tanning salon. So I got a new present lol.


Describe your week in blogland and in real life.
My week in real life this past week has been terrible. I got a phone call that my daughter took a road trip to Arkansas and had a terrible car wreck(she is ok now) The accident was described as a T Bone. A car pulled out in front of them as they were traveling at a high speed. They rolled the vehicle. Luckily they both were able to be pulled out of the car. She was driving and her boyfriend suffered more injuries. At first we were told she had damage to her left frontal lobe of her brain. But after more scans and alot of prayer she was released from the hospital. Her boyfriend suffered severed liver, punctured lung and broken ribs. So a fun emotional week that hasnt been band friendly.
