Woot Woo! I dragged my arse tot eh gym today, didnt get there till like 2:30 But I got there and was very very happy I did! After my work out I hopped on the scale and damned if I havent lost the weight I gained back on my little summer hiadis….woot woo! I am thrilled. I was at 315! Im so happy I was dreading getting back on the scale on the 8th for my weigh in and having it show a gain! I have consistantly lost up until my hiadis.. I’m back and feeling good!

I cant remember if I told you all, one of my employee’s abandoned her dogs at the business when she left state. I being an animal lover wouldnt let them get put to sleep. We found a rescue for the one and the other, well she is still with us, We are fostering her until we can find her a home. We have been working with her and she is making great progress, anyway was infested with fleas and now so are my other 2 dogs and 3 cats! So I decided I was gonna flea bath them all and sprinkle the carpets…. this went well beleive it or not untill the last cat, Birkoff. He is my fat fat cat. He is declawed int he front and a lover, a rela lap cat. Well the little beast was no lover today. He did real well untill the last dunk to get the soap from his eyes! When he came up (and it was quick) the little monster bit me in the forearm! Its a deep puncture wond and it hurts (Im a big wbaby!) So needless to say im pouting around.

Well I am off to play some Pokerstars! Im feeling lucky!

Well I was felling pretty good about date night last evening. We drove over to Flint and stopped at our fav store and had dinner at Red Robin. For those of you that dont know about Red Robin, it is a burger joint with these huge burgers and bottomless steak fries (That are to die for!) Any way, I did order a salad and ended up only eating 1/4 of it (It was huge too) and was very satisfied surprisingly. So I am all happy thinking wow I have really done well to day, Im full and I’ve only eating around 700 calories. Dont panic I know I need more, but you see we were going to a double feature at the drive-in and I knew we would be snacking. I mean what is a movie with out snacking anyway? Well this is were things went a little bit out of control. We stoped at Walmart to get a few snacking things to take with us, huge mistake on its own but it gets better. First of all we got into check out line at 7:50 with 2 people in front of us, with not a too much stuff. 45 minutes later we are finally checked out. Thanks in large part to me  reading codes off a print out so the cashier could enter it in as she couldnt read it! I dont know if she was new or just not able to handle the job but oh my lord I was sooo stressed out by the time we got out of there I wanted to scream!!  It wasnt just me the lady behind me was making comments as well. It was so frustrating. We finally get to the movie and though I brought low fat items I still managed to eat the other 500 calories in snack food. Just lovely I know! I am pretty bummed about my lack of control at the movie, I had a pepsi too, just a can but none the less a pepsi! grrrr. I stuck my ave calorie graph in as well. Not real tickles with it but hey…Toady will be better I know!

It is a beautiful day here. The weather is beautiful And my view is awsome, wanna see…..

So for being at the buisness I can not really complain I get to sit here for a bit off and on and watch the watercraft float by. My muscles are soar from kicking but at the gym two days ina row (yeah!) and I am going to have to find something to entertain myself for exercise today and tomarrow. I really really want an elliptical. I keep hearing everyone talk about them and last night at walmart I spotted two of them one for 200 and one for 400. I liked the more expensive one as it had a fan and the system seemed more efficiant but like hubby said we have tons of fans. So I dont really know what to look for in the machine anyone know about them? Fill me in! Ok well I guess I am gonna go read on the deck for awhile. Have a great holiday weekend!

Earlier while I was looking at wedding photos I found this awful and I do me awful photo of me pre wedding. Its been bothering me all afternoon, sticking in my mind. I was whinning to hubby and he said “that was then, look at you now! I love you all ways!” What a sweet heart. At any rate it was still just bugging me so I decided to take the awful photo and make it one of the “before” photos ( I still cant beleive I am posting this, however I like the reminder of what I dont want to look like again!) So here it is for better or worst the dreaded fat photo and one trying to copy it today.

I am continuously inspired by my buddies here. I beleive I am getting to where I want to be because of you all! Thank you, truely! Much Love.

Well I made it to the gym this morning and had a great sweaty workout. I really like the Curve’s I go to, the people are nice and the staff is friendly and very supportive. It makes it so much easier to go when you dont dread it.  On the way home from the gym today I seen two bikes for sale, I could not see a price but they looked like they were in good shape so I sent hubby that way. We have been kinda toying with the idea og getting bikes (however I was afraid we wouldnt like it and blow a bunch of cash for nothing) Were we moved there is a nice bike path through the woods, its part of the “Bridge to Bay” bike path that has been in the works for a couple years. It extends about 60 miles give or take from Lake Huron/St Clair River mouth down to the Anchor Bay. It will be lovely when its all finished, not that I could ever bike that far. Anywho Shawn came home with the bikes - both of the for $35 bucks! I could not beleive it! They arnt the fancy mountain bikes you see now adays, just older Schwin’s But they are in great shape and I think mine even has a seat big enough for my arse…at least it would look like some kind of butt implant.LMAO. So Anyway we are going to give the bike riding thing a try. Wish us luck, this could be histerical.

I spoke with my aunt yesterday and she commented on how much has changed since my wedding photos weight wise and I decided to look. She is right what a change. We got married in Sept of 04. Check out these photos.Ugg I cant beleive I was that big, funny how you subconsciencly rationalize isnt it?

Wow anyway I will have to blog later as I am at work and have to go serve lunch!! Have a good day all!
