Today I'm off to find a few new things to wear. Isn't it just a shame to have to buy new clothes when you lose weight. LOL

It's going to be a lazy saturday except for a little house cleaning. Hmmmmm...wish a had a maid.
I also have a little office work left to do. I love being able to work from home a few days a week.

Matt is off working and Alex will help me a little. Maybe we'll watch a movie tonight.

More later....

This morning Matt and I went to breakfast at Ihop. If I'm going to cheat this is a good place for breakfast. I got so full I didn't eat anything else all day. It was good to have a mother-son outing. Matt is researching all of his options on what to do with this next stage in his life. He graduated as a Texas Scholar on 6/3/08. I'm a real proud mama!

Alex has become a real track star. He was the district champion for school in the 110 & 300 hurdles. Do I have a future olympian on my hands?????!!!!!

Gizmo loves when I work from home. This afternoon he just wanted to be cuddled in my lap. Yes he has me tied around his finger...oops, paw!

Ohhhh, good news this morning. The scale said I lost another pound, 41 total !!

Well, I thought I'd give this blog thing a try. I'm not so good in writing in a journal and maybe this will help. That way I can share with my family and friends. And they can share back with me.

For starters, I've been dieting...I hate that word...I've been working on a life style change. Much better! I started this change 3/19/08. I was at a very unhealthy weight and just felt awful. So I started Nutrisystem to help me in the weight area. I've been successful thus far...40 lbs gone already!!! I couldn't be more pleased. But what makes me even happier is that, much to my surprise, I'm still 100% gung-ho. Woohoo! I even allow myself cheat meals. They are not planned, it's just spur of the moment. For example, I'm going out to breakfast with a friend of my son Matts tomorrow morning. It's been several weeks since the last outing so I'm allowing myself to go. And will be back on my plan at next meal.
