Week 1 weight loss

 I am down 1.8lbs! It feels like it should be slightly more but I guess a loss is a loss! I know I could have done better with eating but it is difficult when you don't have time to prep healthy food & of course the money to afford the healthy stuff.

 But I digress, I believe this week will be better because I will pay more attention to what I eat & of course walk 30 mins a day. Thankfully the PMSing Mother Nature is allowing us in the east a slightly warm winter (for now). Although the one day last week when it was about 20 degrees out I forced myself to walk because I knew if I didn't I would regret it immensely.

 I am so excited to begin this journey (yet again but this time I promise to stay on track). I just hope if I gain a small amount I won't be discouraged and give up. So until next blog....SMILE!

Sometimes elderly people can get on your last nerve...

 Seriously! I (if you don't know already) am a Certified Home Health Aide (CHHA) & I spend my days helping elderly people with tasks they can not do on their own anymore. Today the lady I kind of think of as a grandma to me, got on my last nerve! I stopped myself from pushing her down the stairs....UGH! I guess everyone has an off type of day, I shouldn't be complaining because I know I definitely have been incorrigible.

 I was happy to escape her home & unfortunately drive to another client who forgets alot (understandable). I wish my stupid boss would listen to the several people whom have told him so far to keep a steady CHHA for her, but I guess it can not be done. After awhile she was fine & she joked with me (which I knew would happen).

 I wonder sometimes if I am in the wrong profession, because they are like children, they refuse to listen to something I have been trained for...UGH! I needed to vent! Sorry for this blog....Until next blog! SMILE!

2012 Commitment

 Trying to attempt this weight loss thing again! It gets absolutely frustrating when you try hard & there are no or very little result. I know the difficulties of trying to lose weight, it is a process I will be engaged into for the rest of my life.

 I have a bet going with my fiance Doug, whomever loses 30lbs first by June 1, 2012 gets something special. 30lbs is a lot to attempt to lose when you have been "off the wagon" for so long. I was once a Weight Watchers member for a few years & they helped me achieve a weight loss of 125lbs....Which sadly the majority of it has crept back upon me :( But with new determination & hopefully a committed partner, we will both lose weight & be healthy for good.

 Doug is diabetic, and picky as hell! Not to mention NOT a vegetable lover & maybe an apple, banana or orange he will be eaten occasionally. He will be a difficult one to get into a healthier habit. But I guess since he is willing to attempt this, I will not argue!

 Well, that is it for today's blog since I am having brain pains & I can not look at this computer screen any longer. Until next blog! SMILE!

Happy 2012

 To start it off....Happy 2012! Here is to hoping this year brings us all happiness & joy!

 I am starting this blog because with all my insane rantings or adorable remarks should be cemented into internet history! :p Yes! I will forever use lame ass emoticons because that is how I roll, and I am an individual! That is the way everyone should be, and not a copy of someone else.

 Anyhow, to make the first entry short & sweet. I have vowed (yet again) to lose weight in the new year. It is a difficult journey I have succeeded in doing in the past, but life sneaks upon you and you tend to fall square on your ARSE! Everyone's journey to anything they desire can be a long process if you allow roadblocks to obscure your destination, but I can not....will not allow that to happen in 2012!

 To end I would like to invite anyone reading my blog(s) to give me POSITIVE feedback! I hope to get maybe a small group of people to help one another to succeed with their achievements.

Until next blog....
