Don't Ask---Don't Tell!

If I'm not mistaken, it was Bill Clinton who initiated the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy into the US Military..right? Anyways...the President doesn't matter. I just thought I'd add that part. However, my bathroom scale and I have a "Don't ask, Don't tell" relationship. I won't ask the scale how it figures the numbers, and it won't tell me anything I don't really like! lol That's a great relationship....right?

So yesterday I weighed in again. I was dreading it because I had paid attention to my food, but I hadn't really be up and moving...because of homework that I HAD to get done! So I had basically been stuck on my backside doing work. I really didn't expect to see much of a change in my weight this week. HOWEVER....when I got on the scales yesterday, I weighed 375!!!! YES! THAT WAS MY REACTION TOO!!!! HOLY COW!! OHMIGOSH!!!! I lost 10 lbs!

Not that I believed it of course. I got on the scale....saw the number...got off the scale....recalibrated the scales....got back on! I did it 4 times! Every time, the number was the same....no matter how much I tried to make it heavier! (I could NOT BELIEVE IT!)

So....now I'm less than 380!! All I have to do it keep it down now! I'm so excited!

I have other stuff to write about right now, but I also have more homework to do.....so.....

Until next time........

Weight Update!!

Last week, I didn't weigh myself because I was sick! Plus, I didn't really eat anything much at all last week. I did, however, register for Weight Watchers online. So I did spend time reading up and learning about the program. Today, I got on the scale. Two weeks ago, I weighed 402. Today, I weigh 390! In two weeks, I have lost another 12 lbs. That makes a total of 26 lbs. so far! I'm excited! Yeah, if you look at the previous post about my weight, it says that I started at 412. Yeah... I looked at the paper wrong. I started at 416. I lost 4 lbs the first week. I lost 4 lbs the second week. I lost 6 lbs the third week. Then I didn't weigh in last week. I weighed in today at 12 lbs down! I can tell it mostly in my pants. I HATE for my pants to be baggy, so I buy them to fit! Yesterday, I wore my black dress pants to church and I had to keep pulling them up. I'm going shopping next Sunday with my mom! I'm so happy! Next Sunday is my bday! So.....

Still Learning

Ok...so I'm always learning something new. However, recently, I have seriously been thinking about something. I want to learn to sew. My mom has a sewing machine I can use any time I want to. Of course, if I really learn to sew, I'd want my own sewing machine! ;) Anyways, I have been checking into classes. I have only found one place in my town that does classes. They offer a 4 week class for $115. That's not bad for a class. But, I'm afraid I wouldn't learn in 4 weeks and I'd need to take the class again! lol Anyways, I'm still looking into it. I'd love to learn. I will one day. However, I've seen some REALLY cute things that I'd love to sew for Chasity to wear! :) Until next time........

NC Weather

Image
In the state of NC, we rarely get that BIG SNOW. They used to be more common.  We used to get one huge snow a year.  Now, we are lucky if we get one every 2-3 years.    However, schools are cancelled, delayed, or let out early for weather all the time here.  We haven’t heard anything today about our schools, but we shall see.    It’s all about waiting to see what happens.  Sometimes, I think that God is sitting up there showing us HIS sense of humor.  He lets the weather people tell us whatever they want to tell us.  Then HE decides to have some fun with the weather.  (That’s just my 2 cents!)   Countdown Updates: 0 days until I pick up cookies!  TODAY is the day! They are still calling for “weather,” but they are pushing back the start time to later today. My scheduled pick up time is 6pm. So, we shall see.  It should be fine. Tony is going to drive me there so I’m not having to do it alone.  Then ...
