Honesty is the best policy....

So, I promised myself when I started this blog...I WOULD BE HONEST.  So, here is comes....I AM HUNGRY!  This week I have had the munchies.  I haven't felt so great...headache, scratchy throat, and drainage.  It isn't an excuse, just a part of life.  But man it sucks!  I have tried to grab a bottle of water every time I have wanted to stuff my face with anything salty.  HAHAHA!  Yes, I've been going to the bathroom a lot :-) 

Who would like a day off tomorrow???  That would be ME!  hahahaha!

Volleyball Match

We had a match tonight....lost....but had fun and yes, I broke a good sweat.  A teammate made cupcakes for the team...UGH!....i had some of the icing, but did not eat the cake.  That's a good compromise...right??  Nicholas enjoyed it!

I haven't felt so great today.  Horrible headache and just blah.  Tried really hard not to snack....but I did have something little this afternoon.  Now it's time to take some advil, jump in a warm shower, and the head to bed.  Fingers crossed I can get up tomorrow!!!

The Biggest Loser

Just wanted to announce that this might be the first time ever that I have watched the Biggest Loser without sitting on the couch eating a crazy snack.  HAHAHA!!  Well, I am sitting on the couch...some...mainly to type this post...but I have been watching and moving around the house.  It was nice getting back to school and NOT having the temptations of the kitchen.  I admit it, I LOVE TO SNACK.  I only take my lunch, one Dr. Pepper, and a fruit for a morning snack.  I keep a Diet Sprite in my fridge to have when I'm wishing I had a sweet tea or another Dr. Pepper.  I also have bottled water.  Tomorrow night we have a volleyball match.  That will be a good hour of exercise.  I usually leave the gym dripping sweat.  Woot-Woot! 

PS - I am going to take some "starting off" pictures....FINALY!

I feel like I did a good job.  Something I have to do more of is WORKING OUT!!  Even if it is just walking...I need, no, I HAVE to do it!  Here are the results of week one.

The Day of Love

What a nice Valentine's Day!  Jeremy and the boys got me a strawberry bouquet....the are dipped in chocolate...yikes!  But no worries, I think Jeremy might eat them all before I let them mess up my diet :-)

Today - only ONE Dr. Pepper!! Yep, I didn't even think about it until tonight...how cool!!??

Saturday morning is the big day!  My first "weigh-in".  I am nervous....but excited!

A picture....

I haven't had a chance to take any "before" pictures of myself...BOOO, I hate pictures of myself.  I love being the one behind the camera....or if I'm in the picture, I'm usually behind someone so that part of my is covered up.  I promise I will do it this weekend.  :-)

 

I love how I'm acting like I'm talking TO someone...hahaha!

Here is a cropped picture from Christmas morning.  BLAH!  GROSS!  My face is so puffy that my eyes are barely open.  GEEZ!!!  THAT IS GOING TO BE THE OLD ME!
