Great day!!! ;-)
Well today is a GREAT day for me!! It is my Scentsy anniversary and I am thankful for my rocking team and customers & I have survived one more month on the 500cal hcg diet. And I can not believe I am only 33 pounds from my BIG FINAL GOAL!!! I have passed all my mini goals because I didnt think I had the strength I set my big goal out of reach I thought but now they are out the window and here comes the Big one!!! I have lost 18 pounds in a month wich makes .58 a day! I could only imagine that I would be 9 pounds from my goal if I would DRINK WATER!!!! Geez... I never thought I would even be close to this! I have learned one thing you DO NOT REWARD your weightloss with food! Normally I would have went to Abilene and celebrated and ate out, this time I am going to make myself wait 4 more days and eat on Super Bowl Sunday. Normally I would have ate today and Sunday haha But I am trying to be more strict on myself and make changes. I hate changes but sometimes they are for the best!!!! I am just glad I ended this morning with my Scales being MY FRIEND! ;-) p.s. Don't forget www.affordablehcgdiet.com is the place to shop if you want to lose like me! :-)

Here for a good time! :-)
Well today I have a love/hate relationship with my scale. My work scale is the one we have weighed on ever since 2000 but a few years ago I bought a nice one for home. Well today I Love my Work scale and I Hate my home scale! haha Home shows I gained a pound and work says I lost two!! Who do I believe???? Well so I am not going to be cranky the rest of the day I have Faith in my work scale now!!! ;-) Friday will be a whole month for me and I have only cheated one meal and had a rice krispie with Charla!!! YUP I BLAME HER but I think I had enough activity that night to burn that little ole rice krispie off!!! Well I am going to tell myself that!! And that is my point back to WILL POWER. You take the smallest little cheat and think it wont hurt you and every day you add a little more and a little more until you have completely fell of the wagon. I also tell myself when I do fall off I just got to jump back on! Tomorrow is another day! Make a journal of everything you eat even if your not dieting! We DO NOT realize how many calories we consume in a day!!! I think back now of all the DQ chicken strip baskets I use to eat and it emberasses me and makes me ashamed! Do I still want one???? heck yes I do oooo heck who am I kidding I want one right NOW!!!! But, that is where strength and mind set come in! I DO NOT need it!!! I just wish I would of kept my measurement of inches before my computer crashed. I need to get Lacy to remeasure me and start over from now. I think I will do that! Anyway enough of the diet kick today it is making me hungry and it's not time for my fruit yet! On my way back from the bank at Rotan today The Smoking HOT the older he gets King George came on the radio and after listening I decided this is my theme song! I am going to be the Old me again and :
I'm not gonna lay around and whine and moan
Cuz somebody done done me wrong
Don't think for a minute that I'm gonna sit around and sing some old sad song
I believe it's half full not a half empty glass
Every day I wake up knowing it could be my lastI ain't here for a long time
I'm here for a good time
So bring on the sunshine to hell with the red wine
Pour me some moon shine
When I'm gone put it in stone he left nothin behind
I ain't here for a long time
I'm here for a good time
Folks are always dreaming about what they like to do
But I like to do just what I like
I'll take the chance dance the dance
It might be wrong but then again it might be right
There's no way of knowing what tomorrow brings
Life is too short to waste it I say bring on anything
I ain't here for a long time
I'm here for a good time
So bring on the sunshine to hell with the red wine
Pour me some moon shine
When I am gone put it in stone he left nothin behind
I ain't here for a long time
I'm here for a good time~George Strait
Until Next time my friends.....If it Tastes good....Spit it Out!!!!

I am back and ready to go!!!
Well it has been a long time since I have blogged about my weight loss journey. I just had went through some personal issues and had such a negative feeling in my life that I didn't want to bring anyone else down with me. I am back and in rare form and I have my Sparkle back and I am not going to let ANYONE take it away from me again!! I am doing this for MYSELF not anyone else!!! I owe my most gratitude to my Friends/Family and my friends at www.affordablehcgdiet.com without them I would not be where I am at today! I have lost over 50 pounds and 50 inches Thanks to them!! It is hard work, takes motivation, takes encouragement, takes strength, takes dedication, takes water hahahaha But most of all you have to do it for yourself because you want to!! I don't want to be that person I once was and as I was able to close that chapter in my life I have decided to just go ahead and end the book and Create a new one!!! I will no longer turn back the pages it is Straight forward from now on!!!! The past is the past for a reason and I am ready to see what my future brings! I hope everyone enjoys reading my blogs and I also I help someone else lose weight or just put a smile on their face! THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!! P.S. I believe I have some grammar mistakes "a bunch actually" but I got to get some stuff done so please don't grade me! :)

Rejuvinated
Do you need your spirits lifted after you have lost some weight but need to lose alot more???? CLEAN out your closet!!! I was so pumped to give away another 6 bags of clothes. ALL the PLUS SIZE clothes and 3x and 4x t-shirts are gone out of my closet!!! Yayyyyyyy!! I also pulled a tub of brand new t-shirts out that are from 2005 that I can now wear.. Next step I cant wait until I get to clean it again and all that you can find in my closet is ladies sizes! Some lucky person will have plenty of t-shirts!! haha Nothing makes you feel better than getting compliments and I have had quite a few lately. It just makes me try harder and want to lose more. I dont really care what I weigh its the size of clothes that matters. The main thing to set your mind to losing weight is....Your doing it for Yourself and No one else!! I really dont care what others think of me or I would wear make up every day. lol I havent been thin since 5th grade and I will always blame it on my mom! "CLEAN YOUR PLATE" Do not make your children eat all their food. When their done their done. But dont let them have a snack 30 min later. Make them go finish eating their plates. It is still hard for me to go eat out because I paid ten bucks for this I am going to eat every bite of it. It is time to let go....Waste the food those kids in Ethiopia cant have ur leftover food anyway so it will be ok!!! Leave it on your plate!!!! Thought for the day: If your craving a Krispy Kreme doughnut go ahead and buy one and take a pic of it Stuck to your butt!! hehehe Have a good weekend everyone!!!!!

Well no drum rolling for me today...lol 2nd week and I only lost 1.5 pounds and one inch. But I will soooo take it. It is better than gaining. I have got to learn when traveling and staying away from home how to eat correctly every time not just when I want to. Water.......the main key and I dont drink it. My goal this week is to drink some water and more tea and not so many diet cokes. I can do it!! On a brighter note I bought the cutest lime green and pink t-shirts LAST summer about this time and I could not even get them over my head. Today I am wearing it! yayyyyyy...I bought some more Smaller clothes and tonight it is time to finish cleaning out the closet. Out with old... In with new! 45 more pounds until my big 2nd weightloss goal will be made. I cant wait!!! "IF IT TASTES GOOD....SPIT IT OUT!!!!"

Sorry it has been awhile since I blogged. I got my mom back home recovering from hip surgery. Then our side of the county has decided to burn again. My ac has jacked up in my truck. Its been a heck of a week. I am having trouble sticking to the VLCD this round. I am finally getting my taste buds back from my gall bladder surgery and that is NOT a good thing. My self esteem has been really low and I have got to get back in the swing of things and back to my bubbly self. I gripe at all my friends who let a guy effect the way they feel and ask why would you do that to urself. When really I need to be asking myself why!!! It is time for me to move on and find someone who already knows. Well Today is a new day and I am going to be STRONG. 2moorow is 2 weeks and I am not going to be very happy with my progress but it is still better than gaining. Right now I am just ready for my Scale to be my Friend! :)
