I’m back and motivated!

Well buddies I feel so motivated.  I just watched Shaq’s big challenge on ABC and I really feel as if it has truly motivated me.  I got to thinking that if I ain’t going to do this for myself I need to do this at least for my family.  I need to learn healthier recipes for my family and stop the junk food.  I want my children to continue and be healthy through their lives and I feel if I’m going to do that I need to make a serious change for us all.   My kids love healthy foods and being outside and I need to take advantage of this while I can.  Well buddies that’s all I’ve got for right now just a quick blog on my thoughts. 

It’s already been a month!

It just shocks me that it’s been a month since my last blog.  I’m sorry that I haven’t been there as much as I would like to be for all of you, my buddies, not to mention myself. I really believe that it helps me to stay on track more when I blog. Not much of anything is going on in my life right now we did just get back from vacation at the beach.  We stayed in this nice little condo right on the beach and it was just so relaxing to get away for a little bit. 

On another thought.  I just wanted to share a few thoughts.  I don’t know if any of you have watched this show before but I was watching America’s got talent.  These 4 girls that was overweight got on there and sang “lady marmalade” in these cute lil lingerie outfits.  I loved them I’m totally rooting for them by the way but what really intrigued me was how happy they seemed to be with their bodies, and the confidence they had.  I just wish that I could have that same confidence that seemed to carry with thereselves.  Just being happy with the way they are.  I just wanted to throw that out there at you all. Even though we are working toward a slimmer us I think that we should enjoy the person we are more.  There is lots of people that love me just the way that I am.  Why can’t I? well take care buddies

Just the usual

Well I’m wanting to update my weight but I have no scales.  I have been told that I look like I have lost some weight though.  Ever since our home burned down I have been totally stressed out.  I think if I lost anything it was because of all the stress.  But I’m getting on with life now.

I need to excercise a little more.  I need to buy some excercise equipment so that I can work out at home, because I’m just too far away from all the gyms and gas is so expensive.  If any of you have some suggestions for some great workout equipment I’m totally open to any suggestions.  I need some advice.  I’m kinda burnt out on the aerobic videos I think I would rather just have some excercise equipment.

On another thought I had a pretty good weekend.  My sisters b-day was Friday and we all went out for girls night out.  I miss my man though.  He had to work out of town this weekend.  Hes supposed to come home tonight.

I hope you all had a great weekend.  Take care buddies.

I’ve got to stop disappearing!

Well I’ve been on and off for a while now.  Sorry I haven’t been there to support all of you, my buddies.  This summer I’m really going to try and dedicate to losing weight.  I’m only taking one class this semester so I won’t have no where near as much workload on me.  Which is a great thing.  I’m going to try and use it to an advantage.  I haven’t went to Curves still.  I live a pretty good distance away from there now and it’s been hard to fit it in my schedule.  But I have been walking a lot more and doing a lot of yard work here lately at our new place.  It’s been a working project. Well I’m going to keep you all more posted promise take care and I will check on all of you this evening.  Take Care buddies.

Hi Buddies!

Hi buddies, I know it has been almost 2 months since I have got to blog but things have finally settled down.  We finally got moved, and moved in. Well to an extent it’s took me so long to get totally unpacked and sort through things that people have gave us to help us out. But it’s getting there. I’m still overloaded with school work from my professors, and the kids there doing great.  I was rather afraid that changing schools wouldn’t go that well with Kaylee but she’s doing great and likes her new school better than the old. Things have been so hectic… I’ve had all sorts of family members and friends wanting me to do there taxes(my major is accounting) so thats been keeping me busy, not to mention I’ve been doing website updates for a few local businesses from home.  I think sometimes I can’t find the time to relax. But since the big hype on taxes is over, life is calming down slowly but surely.

I haven’t went to Curves since all this has happened.  I just can’t seem to get myself in there.  Were living further away from Curves now and it seems to make it a lil harder.  I hope everyone is doing good.  I’ve missed you all so much.  I really feel like now that life is getting back to normal I can focus some more on my weight loss.  I may have to give Curves up though and find something from home that I can do.  To tell you the truth buddies my diet is going horribly since all this has happened I’ve had so much stress that I think I may have even gained.  So I’m basically back to step 1. Well buddies I need to jump off her and get some sleep, I’m exhausted.  I will catch up on all of your blogs as soon as I can.

Update

Hi buddies,

rn

Things are finally starting to look up.  We got us a place and I’m hoping by next weekend we should be moved in.  It’s really great.  We love it.  But we have to get all kinds of appliances and all kinds of other stuff.  But we do have most of the living room and bedroom furniture took care of but as far as the rest of the house we’re going to go hunting for stuff tomorrow.  I can’t wait until we get moved in though, I’m so excited! It’s been very crazy here lately but my nerves have finally seemed to resettle down.  I still haven’t showed my face at Curves but that’s the futherest from my mind in a way, because I got all my school work and moving and everything else to figure out.  I’m hoping that once we get moved in though that we will get settled down and then life will continue to it’s normal self.  I have to admit though this place has much more room than I had ever expected!  It’s a 4 br 3 full bath and it’s got a bonus room and 2 living rooms and dining room.  Me personally I’ve never lived in a home this big but it’s affordable in our monthly budget and it’s got a great yard for the kids.  I love it out there and the kids love it as well.  I just wanted to hop on here though and share an update with you all.  Thank you for everyone that’s sent e-mails and that have been praying for our family.  I deeply appreciate it.  Things seem to be working thereselves out slowly day by day but at least were getting there one day at a time.  Thats all we can do.  Well buddies I will talk to you all again as soon as I can.  Take Care!

Hectic life

Well everyone, I don’t know where to start.  I’ve had soooo much going on.  Me and my family lost our home.  It caught on fire not this past sunday but the one before that.  We’ve been staying in my uncles house.  Things have been pretty hectic lately.  With school, trying to find a home, replacing furniture and much more.  We lost everything.  It was a total loss.  Nothing inside the home was recoverable.  The fire marshall said that it started at the dryer and it was electrical.  It’s been very hard, but a lot of people has been helping us with clothes and things.  It’s hard starting all over again.  But at least were all okay.  Me and the kids wasn’t there when it happened because my mother was having surgery the next day and we had went to stay with her.  Because she had to be at the hospital at 7:30 am and it’s an 1 1/2 hour drive to her house.  My man was home though and barely made it out but he’s ok thank goodness.  He had woke up and he said the house was filled with smoke and that he could barely find the door.  He said the fire alarm is what woke him up.  It’s just been very devasting.  For the past week or so we have all been taking it very hard.  It’s just too hard to explain but I know things will look up soon.

On a different thought I haven’t went to Curves since this has happened.  It seems hard to find the time to do anything.

Well buddies life is just toooo hectic right now to handle.  I’m sorry I haven’t been able to respond to your blogs but I will catch up soon when things slow down a bit, take care all.

Update on Life

Well buddies, I’m sorry I haven’t been there for you as much as I’ve wanted to lately.  I’ve just had so many things going on with school and stuff I had to cut out some of my buddyslim time.  But I’m still trying to do good on my diet.  But the crappy part is I only got one day of Curves in last week.  I overslept this morning, then yesterday my man didn’t get home in time, and the day before that they were closed because of the snow and ice.  Sooo I’m hoping that next week will be better.  School is eating me alive, well it feels like it at times.  I done 3 chapters out of just one class this week.  Thats not counting all the other classes.  Well I thought I would jump on here and say hi and let you all know whats been going on, I hope you all have a great weekend, and I’m on my way to check on how all of you are doing.

Bye 4 now

Hi Everyon

Hi Buddies, Sorry I haven’t got to blog in a few days but things have been going crazy.  You all know I’m taking 6 classes.  I had 2 big test this weekend.  And my man is trying to start his own business so I’ve been having to help him out a lot more.  Oh, and I’m selling my car on Ebay, it’s my baby, it’s a classic.  I just can’t afford the gas in it no more and I need to get another vehicle.  I can tell you all that I really am going to be sad to see it go when I do sell it.  But I need to.. I want to restore it more than I have but it’s so time consuming.  Yes I’m a woman that has a love for classic cars lol But on to another subject.  I also used to build websites for a side job, I kinda slacked on it some and stopped doing it because of putting my schooling first. Well one of my favorite customers e-mailed me today and she’s wanting me to update her site for her.  Soooo I’ve got that coming up tomorrow as well.  Oh, and another thing I went to the dentist today to get a feeling and ouch, it’s been hurting all day since I’ve had it done and the numbing still isn’t gone.  I’ll be glad when things does slow down a bit for me.  I’m going to Curves tonight, I got my 3 days in last week and I’m going to try and get the same in this week or more, if I can.  I hope things are going great for all of you.  I guess I’m going to go and check on all of my buddies and stop gabbing about my hectic life lol.  Talk to you all soon.

Losing the love

I’m losing the love in a good way though, lol I’m losing my love handles! My honey was telling me that he can tell a big difference.  And believe me I’m very glad as well! I also got another comment today.  My sister-in-law told me that she could tell I was losing weight.  Not to mention I put my some old pjs on that used to barely fit me and I can pull them like 10 inches away from my waist now! Woo hoo! I’m so glad to be noticing differences, and other people are noticing them as well.  Oh and more good news I made it to Curves 3 days this week and I’m supposed to go in the morning as well because I gave my sister-in-law a month free, it’s a promotion there having, and she wants me to go to Curves with her in the morning.  So I should get 4 days in this week! I feel great as well.  I love getting my energy back.  I’m caught up on the house work, and I’m caught up on my school work! I’m just full of kinds of good news lol.  Well buddies I hope you all are doing great, I’m off to read all your blogs, talk to you soon!
