Profile Information

About Me:
I started my weight loss journey at 291 lbs. I lost around 100lbs. about 3.5 years ago. Since then I have been struggling to lose the last 40 lbs. I am currently fluctuating around 180. I joined ww again about 10 weeks ago at 186.8 lbs., my loss so far is 8.6 lbs. My ultimate goal for now is 150 lbs., if I can get on a roll and attain that I will reassess. I just can't seem to discipline myself or stick to it long enough to lose the last little bit. I have changed my lifestyle tremendously over the past 5 years and eat pretty healthy all of the time. I am hoping that starting this blog will keep me accountable.
Plan of Choice:
Low Fat, High Fiber, Weight Watchers
Workout Philosophy:
I'm a walk-a-holic, I only exercise because I have to

A little bit of motivation:

- Believe, plan, act, persevere and you will succeed.

- People don't succeed because they give up what they want the most for what they want right now.

- What do you want out of life and what are you willing to do to get it?

Pregnant and out of control!!!

Since finding out that I am pregnant I have been absolutely out of control. I have been making bad choices and eating too much! I have still been making good choices, but right along with the bad ones. I am only about a month and a half along and I can barely fit into my jeans! The insanity is stopping right here and now. I am nearing 190 and that is a place I don't want to be. I told myself that I would not get above 200 with this pregnancy. I weighed 162 only 6 months ago on my wedding day. Wh… Continue

I think I'm pregnant!

Yes, I did say I think. I have taken 2 home tests that were positive, but my period isn't technically due until Thursday. We haven't really been trying but we haven't been preventing either. I have been feeling weird and had a cold for the last week and a half. I got up in the night with one of the kids last week and ended up blacking out and falling down on the tile floor, bruising my tailbone. I knew then that something was going on I just wasn't sure what. I have not made it to my goal weight… Continue

An undeserved loss

I had a 1.6 loss at my meeting today, that I totally didn't deserve. I have not been very good this week. I have planned out all of our meals and bought the ingredients and been cooking but still eating too much. And I ate out mexican food last night. Seeing that loss today really gave me that bit of motivation that I need to keep going. I am focused on having a successful weekend. We will be home with the kids and will try not to eat out too much. It seems as though the weekends where it is jus… Continue

The mother-in-law is coming to visit!

My mother-in-law is coming to spend the night with us for the first time tomorrow. Actually, it will be the first time that she has visited us since moving into the house. She wanted to come watch Hunter play football on Saturday so we invited her to stay and go trick or treat and to a carnival with us on Friday. I wasn't sure if she would accept or not, but she did! Now I've got to get my house cleaned up! Crap! And what will I fix to eat? She is a ww too, so that will be okay. I feel as if I n… Continue

MIA during a stressful time

Hey all! I have been MIA the last couple of weeks, when I really needed you all the most. I had previously posted about my 29 year old cousin being diagnosed with cancer. Turns out it was stage 4 melanoma. We buried her yesterday. She only made it one month after being diagnosed. She was at peace and ready to go to heaven. What makes it all so very sad, is that her baby girl turned 8 months old yesterday. She didn't make it to her first child's first Halloween or Christmas or Birthday. We were h… Continue

Hi there! Just checking in to see how you are doing!

Thanks so much, Tawnya! I have SO many happy things going on in my life right now, but I've thrown my healthy habits out the window. With the holidays and my wedding coming up, I've gotta take care of myself! I feel so sluggish and run-down, especially due to the lack of exercise and healthy foods. I don't have an I-phone, but am going to check out Livestrong. I've heard some good things about that site. Hope all is well with you!:)

Hi Tawnya! The latte I get is 190 for a grande (that's with just one pump of peppermint). It's a bit high, but compared to other drinks from Starbucks it's not bad. The added bonus is that the soymilk has enough protein that I don't feel the need to get a snack!

The mexican pizza was divine! I used Devin Alexander's Healthy Decandence recipe as a guide. So, so good! :)

I'm sure it would work with splenda brown sugar! It's super easier. Mine turned out a little more like super thick applesauce, so I reduced the water that I put down for sharing. Let me know how it turns out for you! I mixed it into my yogurt this morning with some granola sprinkled on top! So good! :)

Tawnya...had to laugh outloud at your "little black dress" compliment you gave me! (thanks btw :) It just happens to be a Walmart special! Spent a whopping $14 on it! And it was SO comfy!

I've been thinking about you a lot today and have gone to tears more than once thinking about your cousin. I hope it gets easier with time. I can't imagine. We lost my husband's brother to cancer after a 6 month fight. He was 35, married and two little girls. I know how hard it can be! Hugs to you and your family.
