WW

I think I mentioned that I wanted to start WW.
I did.
Let me say this. It is rather hard to stay with when my DH is so against healthy food. He would rather have lots of meat and no veggies if any at all.

I feel that I have done rather well until I hit the weekend. Its hard to stick with it when he is home. As sad as it is to say I'm waiting for workups to start so I can take on this challenge like a champ.

I have found some great recipies that would work really well. They leave me full but don't use all my points which doesn't seem to be good. I will get it all figured out sooner or later.

WW- Week 1

I have not got my package in the mail yet but I have started the program a bit. I feel that I will be eating more food on this program than I normally eat. I do need to start going to the gym. I have a membership to 24hour that I should probably use. I would like to shed the 30 pounds with in the year. I need to look nice in that wedding dress. It will be summer of 2009.

Weigh in for the week of September 15= 155

Weekend wrap-up

I would love to tell you that I had an exciting weekend but that's not the case.

However I did go shopping at the commisary on base. I am usually against such thing but I figured we will see.

I spent a chunk of change there. I do feel like I got some good buys. I got 4 bags of meat there so that was a chunk of the money.

I do not buy steaks and roast there. I do not like the texture of the meat I have got. I do buy chick, pork, turkey, sausage, and other meats. Just not choice cuts.

I am hoping the veggies I bought this time last longer. I have been making some good and healthy dishes lately. SD swears its because I got a new sautae pan for my birthday!

Sunday was relaxing. I watched the Chargers lose to Denver. What an upsetting game!

I did however cash in some of My Coke Rewards and get BOGOFOf my Coke Zero! Coke products are not on sale this week and I do not want to pay $4 a 12 pack!

Like I said relaxing!

Friday Fav

My Friday Fav this week is Home Fragrance Oils. I got mine at The Body Shop. They were about $7 and have lasted us a long time. I had my own burners that I used with tarts so I just used those. They are awesome.

I had a 2 story town home and they worked great in there as well. You use a small candle let them burn for about 15 minutes and you can smell them for sometime. I think we bought ours around Christmas and we still have them.

I bought Satsuma and Strawberry. We put 2 drops of each in and the smell is wonderful!

I will never forget

Weekend wrap-up

My weekend started off really depressing. I turned 27, went to the doctor and just was not feeling so well.

Turning 27 overall has not been so bad. I just really feel like a mom and older. I know that it is more mental than anything. I think I am okay with it. I just really do not ever want to be considered "old". I am trying to be optimistic and know that age happens!

I went to the doctor because I have not had my cycle since June. I have had 1 blood test and I can't tell you how many urine tests. They all came back to me negative. No pregnancy was not the issue. I have been tired more. So it is something that I wanted to know. My doctor decided that he wanted to do a blood panel for my thyroid. I would find out the results later this coming week.

Now... This has left me sad, depress, in fear, scared. I do not want to gain weight, take pills the rest of my life, have surgery. I have read up on the issue. I have a lot of the things related to the issue. I know that I need to take my happy self to the gym and eat right.

This also leaves me somewhat bummed because I wanted more kids. The more and more I read it says that getting pregnant when you have thyroid issues is a lot harder than if your hormones were regulated. All of this is just assumption from the doctor. I will know more later. Perhaps i am jumping to conclusions but I always do that.

Heres to a better week!!!

Red Lobster, NEVER again

Okay so I have been putting going to this so called restaurant for over a year. Since December 2005 to be exact. The food at Red Lobster is prepackaged. So basically it is made at some plant where they stuff it into bags. The "cook" gets it up in some water or whatever and serves it to you on a really hot plate. Okay that's why I don't eat there.

So SD has been bugging me to go there. Even after I tell him it is a waste of money, its packaged food and so on. They are doing all you can eat shrimp. So I said fine.

All you can eat shrimp was $17 so we ordered that each ice teas and a meal for the kids to split. I also got a sangera that had berry flavor to it. That was good. The food sucked. It had a taste of packaged food. SD finally realized that it was not worth the cost. The service is somewhat good but the food in my personal opinion is not worth it.

I do however, like the biscuts. I think they are the only thing still made in the store.

So long Red Lobster....
