Sunny Saturday?

At least it was sunny now and then. I went to the women's conference, such fun and great motivation and I also managed to meet my weight watchers goals all three days and so far today. Since tomorrow is fast Sunday and I am now fasting I will meet them today also. I guess that makes me 26 of 30 for April since I slipped up 4 days in the month. Will have a weigh in on Friday so have to be good until then. I think we have a meeting on Monday, is that right? It is the 1st Monday of the month.

Royal Wedding

Well I must say I sure didn't understand all the Royal Wedding hype.... Until now while watching Dateline. There really is something fun and enchanting about a commoner becoming a princess!! I didn't meet my goals today. But sure plan to tomorrow.

Last Thursday of April and it's still cold!?!?

Met my goals today. Hope everyone is having a great time in Utah!! Kim let's get a running plan figured out.

Heading to Women's Conference Wednesday

I am planning on meeting my goals through Sunday. I am leaving for Provo this morning after I exercise.
I'm kicking myself for the self-sabotage last week. It's good to be back on track!

Tuesday

I met my goals today.

Oops

Not such a good day. I had to make cookies (big mistake) and ate a few too many. So far for April I am 21 of 25. I will do better tomorrow.

My, oh my, it's Monday

I'm blogging early this morning to tell you that I am going to get 100% today. I'll report tonight. You are all doing great! Thank you for the inspiration!

Easter

Hope all of you had a good Easter Sunday. I met my goals today, hope you did too.

Saturday is the day to turn things around

I walked outside today for the third time this year. Yippee! After being in Arizona for three days at a stressful family event and eating everything in sight I am happy to say that today I have gotten back on track. I know several of you are struggling so let's all get going as of today.

This post is for Thursday

No one blogged yesterday! Okay-I know we all start out strong and then for some reason, a lot of us get off track in the middle of the month. I'm including myself in this. Let's make a turn around and end the month as strong as we started it. Ilene, I'd love to see your baby bonnets! Are you sewing, crocheting, . . .? Cherie, it can be hard to not eat chocolate, etc. when you're with family. You've been doing so well--I"m sure you'll get right back on track when you return to Idaho and if you happened to gain any this week, it will come right off.

I rejoined Weight Watchers this morning (the meeting one) even though I said I was never going to do it again and it's way too much money! I decided that I could reach my goal within 6 months and I'd gladly paythe amount it will take to be at my goal for the first time in 25 years. So, I HAVE to stick to the program so I can accomplish my goal. I do not want to be paying WW any more money a year from now! One reason I didn't want to go to the meeting was because I feel like I know the program inside and out. But I have to admit, it was good to be there, to hear the other women's experiences, and just to be reminded of the things I need to do. Hey, that kind of sounds like church. I'll start reporting my weight change each Friday to you just for the accountability. I'm 36 lbs. above the WW recommendation, and I am going to lose an additional 12 lb for a total of 48 lbs. from today. That sounds like a lot, but 6 years ago, I was 75 lbs above the WW maximum. So, it's been slow going, but at least I"m headed in the right direction!

Wednesday

I met my goals today. Looking forward to the day I can run outside . . . .whenever that is!

Burr!!!

Where is spring? Hope all of you met your goals today. I did. I am excited that Kim and Heather are joining weight watchers. Let me know what meetings you will attend so I can go with my HLC buddies. Way to go Ilene, doing so great all those days in a row.

Starting Monday

No one blogged yesterday so I am going early today as I have a crazy busy day. Sounds like you are all doing amazing things. Good job. I met my goals yesterday and plan to do so today. So far for April I am 17 for 17. Hope for two more lost pounds this week.

Wind, wind GO AWAY

Do I sound angry? This weather is getting to me. I did meet my goals today despite being angry at the weather. Hope it was better in Utah for those of you running. Can't wait to hear about it.

Freezing Friday

I'm heading out of town. I am planning on meeting my goals over the weekend. I have met them today.
Repent Kim. You can do it!

Thoroughly Windy Thursday

It was great to see Lisa, Kim, and Cherie today. Good luck on your long run Heather.
I met my goals today.

Wet Wednesday

Met my goals today. I am anxious for Friday's weigh in. I hope I at least lost a pound this week. I used up my extra points so may not lose much but please be something. Fun night at Relief Society. Thanks to those that came and those that helped, Ilene cudos for helping in the nursery. I bet it was a wild place.

Nabisco

I blame them for making OREO's!! I am laying here, in bed no less, getting Oreo crumbs all over my bed, those which are not soaked in ice cold milk!! I did excersise really hard today. Sorry to go a stray... Nabisco isn't though!!

Monday monday

I met my goals today. Hope everyone is having a great week! I'm looking forward to the big run this weekend, I figure if I say that out loud it will become true! ;)

Where is the sun, Sunday

I met my goals today, hope you did too. Looking forward to outside exercise SOON!

Balmy Saturday

It was a beautiful day today. I went for an hour bike ride this morning. I named my new bike Pearl. She performed beautifully! I had fun. It was a bit chilly, but I enjoyed the ride. If any of you would like to join Pearl and me for a ride I would be thrilled.
I cooked all afternoon today. I have 14 people coming to dinner tomorrow.
I met my goals today.

Bummer

I am a little ticked off, I was so good following weight watchers all week. I did not feel like I lost any weight but was hoping for the best. I went to the weigh in today and gained .02 ounces. I guess it will average out but I really was hoping for at least a pound off and not any gain. Hope the rest of you are seeing results. I will hang on to the success the last few weeks and keep going.

Snow . . . again

Is it really snowing again?! I have a new bike sitting out in my garage waiting for me to ride it. I can't wait.
Who ordered this snow anyway?
I love Spring. Normal Spring. But I guess this IS normal Spring in Idaho Falls.
I hope you all had a great day.
Met my goals today. Don't plan on eating anymore today.

Snowy Wednesday

I was waiting for the first blog, but I guess I will contribute. I had another successful day. Kim's words about helping each other have helped me stay the course today. I met my goals. Yeah for each successful day!

I'm Still Here!!

Hello Ladies!! WOW! Where have the last 3 weeks gone. I think I've come to the conclusion that I'm a stress eater :0) A week before Benson left it started and I finally called it quits on Sunday! What the heck!!! I've spent the last two days in a bad mood because I gained all my weight back plus 2 lbs...this afternoon I concluded that being upset about it is going to make it worse...SO back in the saddle my friends!

I do have something fun going on...on Monday nights I play women's volleyball at the Apple on a league team. It's me Sara Maughn (sp), Brooke Young, Renea Merzlock, Julie that use to live in our ward, and a girl named Valerie. We had our first game last night and we did so good!!! We won of course or it wouldn't have been so good. If ya'll ever want to come watch it's free to get in and fun competitive ball to watch. Luckily it has pushed me to get back on the wagon. I can't jump as high when I'm carrying all this baggage, so that's good motivation for me.

Well, all is well in the Morales household. We were able to talk with Benson yesterday as he was flying out to New Mexico. MAN IT WAS SOOO GOOD TO HEAR HIS VOICE! This has been a big adjustment as I'm sure most of you know having experienced it yourselves.

I'm so proud of all of you trekin' right along...YOU INSPIRE ME!!!

New Start

Thanks for the motivation at the meeting today. I know April will be a good month for all of us. I met my goals today so I am 4 for 4 so far.

Where is everyone?

Heather, I think everyone has run away for the weekend. Glad you are back, looks like you had a great time. Eating right will be easier now. How did the 12 mile run go? I have never run anywhere near that far. Are you still doing the half marathon on the 16th? What a woman. I had a good weekend and managed to keep my goals going. Looking forward to seeing all you all at the meeting tomorrow. 5:30 at Ilene's.

Saturday day 2 of the new month

Met goals. Hope everyone is doing Wonderful!!

April fools

Again ate way too much and not healthy... And that's no joke! But I'm finally home from vacation so I think I'll have a better handle on things.... And that's a joke! ;) tomorrow is my 12 mile run.. For the love that's a lot of running.
