Drive by weight
249.8 lbs this morning. I've been walking some more than normal because of the fundraiser and needing someone out on the back corner of the track. We trade off and on and send those new people out as often as we can. Cuz we are evil like that and I can't fit into any long johns to keep me as warm as some. Ok gotta get the kids ready or they will be late AGAIN just like yesterday.

Meh
Diet and diet related blogging is down due to mental strain at the moment. I will return......hopefully with some sanity left shortly after the kids school fundraiser is over. Why is this mental strain on me you ask? Oh because 3 years ago I was stupid enough to volunteer myself to be the PTO fundraising chairperson. >.< Yeah and I've done such a great job (up until now I think.....) that no one has wanted to take the position from me.
We do a lap-a-thon at the school because we have a half mile track that goes around the playground. No I will not be walking except maybe with 4 classes total. We get to stand at the door and punch the kids cards to keep track of laps. So my biggest brain fart on this whole thing is that I now work during lunch time at the school as well.........when the HECK am I going to eat lunch next week???? Because of course I am there everyday to cover all the shifts except those that I am working in the lunch room during.
Now back to curling up with my mind numbing book because I can't think to do anything else right now.....

Hmmmmm
The oreo's are calling my name......but I've been good so far today. I have the apple that I should eat sitting right next to me but it doesn't appeal to me right now. My brain is rationalizing "if I clean out the litter boxes then a few cookies won't hurt but would be a reward......" But would they really or would I do what I think will happen and just keep eating them? I don't seem to have much willpower today. I just want to lay around and enjoy this lovely fall weather we are having. But to truely enjoy it that means I have to wait until the hubby is "comfprtable" enough to turn the air - yes the air - back off to open the windows. Evidently getting up to 77 F today was too much for him. UGH! Or I could go sit on the deck with my knitting and the lawn chair. But since I am knitting socks right now I run the risk of losing a needle through the deck boards.......decisions! Meh, if I wait another hour I can open the windows and knit on the couch. Maybe I can convince him to suffer an hour earlier. :)
Lunch today was a Smart One's Salsbury Steak with mac & cheese - YUM. Truthfully it could be worse - darn McDonald's monoply game! It really makes it even worse that if I large size my normal meal (chix club sandwich) that I get 4 more game pieces than I would normally. That is if I were to eat there......which I did about 4 times within the first few days of the game opening. But the bad thing about that is my weight goes up. And we have ordered the dress for Amy's wedding - so I gotta fit into it since we had it sent to where she lives and it arrives the day BEFORE her wedding! >.< No more eating for me.....well not really just no more junk food. Man it's tough.
On that note I decided to try and get my stomach to be less of a big pooch thing that it is right now. So I did some sit-ups this morning. Nothing too big just 15 as that was what I could do before it started hurting. I figure tomorrow I'll try to do one more and the same the following day. I also want to work on my arms to have less of that upper arm jiggle. So I guess I better get started lifting the weights I have. If I start right off with the 5 lb. ones I have then I have to start lower but if I follow the same thing as the sit-ups - increasing 1 a day.......I think it will work. I know it won't all be gone in time - I mean the wedding is 11/8, but hopefully it will be better than it looks now. Here's me crossing my fingers. Ok back to the cat litter boxes - guess I better get those done. Cuz they need it.
