Sunday

Sunday, April 14, 2013

Yeph, I really over did it yesterday; not with food, although I had a bit more then I logged. My poor body is telling me "Hey, Lady! You might want to organize the picnic, but we, your arms, legs and feet, just can't keep holding you up forever. Give us a break!" I don't want to give up this bit of my life, as I enjoy it, but I must find another way of doing it or I must hand it over to a new person.

Still no news on the Grandson and what the heck is up with him. Stress is becoming the norm in my life and that just plain old stinks! I want to be close to my daughter and him but 1200 miles is too far to be much of a help. God will show us the way.

I plan on a nice long nap after I get the laundry done. I will place a beef roast, carrots and sweet potatoes into the over and when I get up all I will have to do is make a salad. Thank YOU time bake on the oven.

Saturday

Saturday, April 13, 2013

Well it is Saturday, the day of the big picnic. I have 102 for the picnic for our rec association! WOW. I am ready. I am resting up until I am "on". The weather is great, but we will be indoors and that is fine.

I gave into some mindless eating yesterday. I think I did very well, considering my Grandson was missing for 2 days and the picnic coming up. However, I still stayed in my calorie range! YES! That Eskimo Pie (Reese's one) was sooooo good! LOL

Today's food is charted and yes I will be over, but I will skinny down my eating for tomorrow.

Does stress burn calories?

Thursday, April 11, 2013

If stress burns calories then I will be super thin by next week. My grandson, age 14, went missing on Tuesday at 3pm. I was have crazy out of my mind with worry. He was found this evening, Thursday about 8:30pm in another state. How did he get there? I don't know. Who shaved his head? I don't know. He said there was an explosion and his hair got burned so he did the cut himself. He only has a patch on the top of his head....he looks like a skin head. This is our autistic kid; too smart for his own good and dumb as a door knob when it comes to life. God was good and HIS angel really worked over time to keep him safe. So Does stress burn calories? I certainly hope so.

    Stress releases cortisol and that makes your body store fat. Sorry but no it does not burn fat. Glad that your grandson is safe and sound

  sorry for the cause of your stress, but research shows that stress actually increases weight by messing with your hormone balance. you don't necessarily eat more, but your body holds on tighter to the calories/pounds that you already have. glad your grandson is home safe.

Scale, Scale, Scale

Wednesday, April 10, 2013

Well I did okay, lost 8/10 of a pound or 1/2 of a pound. That is a good thing. Went to the Warm Mineral Springs on Monday and walked, walked, walked in the warm water loaded with 57 minerals and I feel so good still.

Now, I just have to keep this up and not stress or sad eat. I CAN do this. I WILL do this.

Another rough week, stress, and sadness

Tuesday, April 09, 2013

This week will mark the anniversary of my Mom's passing, 2 years, and I must say it isn't really getting better; yet.

Grandson is still giving us a run for our money; Son in law is still so far underground no one can fine the dirty rotten.......(you can fill in what ever name you want to, I have used them all at one time or another). Oldest Grandson is doing great, Daughter is hanging in there, but losing more weight every day and she does not need to loose weight! The step kids are doing great; don't hear from the one very often but she is busy.

Okay, enough of the sadness and stress. I will pray and ask God for guidance and to give me strength. I will not stress eat, and haven't so far. I will put a smile on my face and move forward.

As my Dad used to say "This too shall pass."

    I lost both parents within 18 days of each other ~ I know we all experience those "sad days". I often think of something I want to share with them, reach for the phone and then realize those familiar voices won't be on the other end.

Just try to remember the good times and slowly your broken heart will heal!
