Sick

Tuesday, August 17, 2010

Today I woke up and felt light headed and nauseous. I did not walk on the treadmill I went back to bed. I woke up at 7:00am and I did not go to work. I thought I had the flu. Went to bed then bed and the room started to spin. I know this feeling I have had it before it is not the flu. I went to the doctor waited 2 hours because I was a walkin. Got the meds and I hope to feel better soon. But the good news is the doctor told me to stay home for today and the next. So Weds. I get to stay home from work. Boy am I glad I have 85 sick days. I guess I can use a few of them.

Becky - I hope you get to feeling better really soon - at least before school is in full swing. I get sick very often so I never have Sick days left - I pay a lot out of my pocket - so Praise God you have so many left. Rest my new friend!!! Report Inappropriate Comment

Last weekend at the beach

Sunday, August 15, 2010

The summer is over for me. This was the last weekend for me a SPI. I said goodbye to the sand and the sun. I will miss the beautiful walks. I will miss Kayaking. Now I need to get back to work and get into the school schedule. I lost weight and I will continue to lose weight this year. I have 18 weeks before the end of the year. I have 30lbs to goal I can do it.

Back to work

Thursday, August 12, 2010

What a great day. I got to meet a Sparks friend in person Marcy. At work the teachers are back many I have not seen all summer. I was feeling down because I have only lost 10lbs this summer, but so many of them were just amazed at my loss it has motivated me to continue. I can do it. I have just 30lbs to go. With the help of friends like Irene and Marcy I can do it.

Last Friday of Freedom

Friday, July 30, 2010

So today was the last Friday of my vacation. Last night at TOPS I lost 2lbs. I am at my mini goal of 190lbs. To celebrate I had ice cream. I at slowly and enjoyed. Then I woke up at 4am and what am I going to do. I did the laundry, read some Spark articles ect. At 7:30am went walking it was so beautiful and a cool, humid 78. Then I went and renewed my drivers license. I am getting too old I have to wear glasses to drive.

  

One year ago

Friday, July 30, 2010

I was going through some paper and pictures in a Scrapbook. I had written I had only 50lbs to lose that was 3 years ago.

On Dec 2009 I was 100 overweight.
1 year ago I was starting to work at school wearing a size 24 pants.
1 year ago I could not walk 1 mile without stopping.
1 year ago I was depressed and did not want to open up to anyone.
1 year ago I would come home from work sit on the couch and eat fried chicken, hamburgers or a blizzard.

That was then
Now I am wearing a size 16 pants
Now I am walking 6 miles and wishing I had more time.
Now I am willing to share my problems and willing to open up my self to others.
Now I get home from work and sit at the table and eat a lite meal.

Reading your blog to get to know you a little better. I think - I'm sure that's why I get so depressed - because of the way I feel and look. I have never - EVER been this big. I hope that with you, Irene and the group will help me thru this. Again - thank you for my goodie and the bubbly hello! Report Inappropriate Comment
