Hey Procrastinator....

Wow.  I didn't realize that I haven't posted in forever. I need to just make a schedule of sorts to keep things on track.  Write down a list of things to accomplish daily and weekly...make a monthly goal.  I just feel so off lately.  I got bronchitis and was sick for a 3 days, went back to work for a day and felt worse upon clocking off...so I went back to the doctor to find that I had bacterial bronchitis....yipes.  Between that and my asthma I told myself that it wasn't safe to workout.  Now I've been breathing fine for the last couple days, yet I didn't start working out.  Grr.  I am the ONLY obstacle in my way.  Why do we, as Bekka pointed out, sabotage ourselves?  I said no more excuses, yet I created them again.  I have got to stop it.  I need to get this schedule rolling so I have time set aside for homework, meal planning, relaxation, working out, my amazing husband and my family and friends.  I need to stop being known as the procrastinator with the 'brilliant personality'...remember those commercials?...haha. I want to be known for starting something...and finishing it!  I'm not exactly known for that right now. Well I did say that I wanted to go back to school and DID graduate with my Associates and AM working on my Bachelors...that is the first step. :)

Step 2: Use the support of my loving husband and my family to get myself in gear to be the healthiest I've ever been...so I can become pregnant and become the happiest I've ever been. :)  Hehe.  I pray for faith in myself, strength to follow through, and hope to be addicted to healthy ways of life.

Thank you to everyone who has accepted me for me and loved me for me.  I need to follow suit and love me for me and start liking myself and making myself healthy.

Ohhh. On a side note...I have been doing well with not drinking pop!  I'm now addicted to Tea that helps me sleep, tea that helps wake me up, and tea in general! :)  Not sure if that is good or bad...I'm not using sweetener so that is a bonus...thoughts??

Bakery

So after hanging out with one of my friends and talking to her this weekend I've come to the conclusion that I just have to tell myself that this is what I want. So I've tried to eat a bit better and make healthier choices. So far I've lost 3 pounds since Saturday and 5 since Thursday. :)  Happy Tuesday!

And as far as the Bakery title...I have to become more healthy so I can get a bun in my oven. :P hehe

Oops! I did it again...

So I was quite proud of myself for starting to eat a little better. I was sick all week too though, so I found myself not hungry in the evening...so I ended up losing 3.5 pounds in 3 days. Yay.  Welp I gained half a pound from Friday to Saturday I'm sure having soda and a little candy contributed to that one. Yeah, well yesterday we went to CiCi's for lunch and I proceeded to have 6-7 pieces of pizza and 3 cinnamon rolls. Really? What was I thinking?  Now my weight loss is only 2 pounds as I've gained 1.5 pounds back.  Yeah not a good idea.  I had eggs and a bagel for breakfast...carbs, yes, but better than fried spicy potatoes and scrambled eggs with loads of cheese and the sausage I wanted! ha. I guess maybe this should teach me a lesson to not overeat the carbs!  Live, Love, Laugh, & Learn! :)

Lucky in Love

Never in a million years would I have ever thought that I would find someone like Wes.  I love him more than life itself. To think it all started because we both were sick of dating and just wanted a friend to hang out and watch football with! Hehe. I have never been this happy in my life.  He loves me for me, you would think it would make me love myself more.  I want a family with him...guess I better get my butt in gear with making myself healthy so we can start a family!  I'm not getting any younger, besides I turn 32 this year...haha. I keep teasing Wes that if we wait too much longer that the chances of having a multiples pregnancy will get bigger. Hehe.  I once heard that your chances double at like age 30-36 or something to that effect. 

Tired of the Excuses

So it has occurred to me that I've been using excuses my whole life to get out of whatever it is that I don't wish to do. So, as I told my friend earlier, I need to pull up my big girl panties and stop the excuses and grow up! :)

Starting tomorrow I'm going to measure and weigh myself and start eating healthier and start working out at least 4 times a week at 30 minutes minimum each day.  I'm hoping that this blog will help keep me committed to doing it.

Note to self....Paula Deen may be a rockstar...but eating fried chicken, butter and cream cheese stuff foods is what built this body!  I need to be the good girl! :)

My Goal is to lose weight and become healthy so that come May or so that my hubby and I may be cleared to get pregnant.  I want nothing more than to be a mommy.  I've always wanted to be a mommy!  I remember always wanting twins too. One year for Christmas Santa Mom got me twin cabbage patch dolls. Loved them!  I'm trying to talk Wes into having some :)  I'll leave that up to God and his little miracles. My surgery last September saved our ability to have kids...but that is only half the battle.  Now I need to make myself healthier to get pregnant. Obesity + Pregnancy doesn't work. :(  It isn't healthy for Mommy or Baby....I have to be the one to make the change or I will be the one in my way.
