In one hour I will have officially survived Monday at work. I must say, it has not been as wild as I thought it would be. Went to the doctor and he only had good things to say about my BP (110/72) and my weight is now 182.6 (which is better than I thought). I am on the right road. Just need to kick it up a notch. Doctor and the shadowing PA were very impressed with what I am doing for weight lost. I gave a pitch for SparkPeople. He told me to continue. I need to get my BMI down some more and I will. Just need to work a little harder. Go back in May 2011.

 on that doctor's visit. I'll bet he was pleased with your results! Good job getting in the plug for SparkPeople. That has to make you feel great & ready to kick it up a notch to be able to knock his socks off at your next visit!  by getting in that workout after the visit, too. Hope you get a good night's rest tonight after a hard day at work

Them dang Snickers bars. I have this same problem, whenever I want something they seem to just magically appear. Ok, I don't eat them that often but when I do they set me off. Hope that your Tuesday is better than your Monday. on your numbers at the doctors.

Today was quiet. I made sure of it. After going to bed at 5 am this morning (don't ask), I wanted no visitors or loud music. I got some much needed rest, along with some walking and jogging. Cleaned the birdcage and got my pics from the wreath making class added to my SparkPage photo gallery. It is amazing to see how a plain wreath and turn it into something so pretty. My biggest challenge during class yesterday was the bow. I did a better bow when I made the wreath for my mom.
Well tomorrow is going to be another Wild Monday 
. I have an 8 am doctor’s appointment. I will get to see my official 
weight. Will see if I have made progress with my BP along with how may steps I have taken forward or backward in my healthy journey. I am looking forward to my dr. visit. This will give me a foundation of what I need to do in the days to come. I 20 pounds to be gone by December 31. I just might have my work cut out for me 
. We shall see.
Working late tomorrow. My breakfast, lunch, snacks and dinner (get off at 10pm) 
are planned for tomorrow. If I can plan for my long days like tomorrow, I can plan for my short days. I might need to make that a challenge. Need to get ready for my busy and long Monday.
Hope everyone has had a great weekend and hope your week is wonderful .

. Than again, since April I could have lost more than 13 pounds if I would have been more disciplined and dedicated. I am not complaining. I am happy, My doctor is happy, My son is happy, all is happy 
). I think I am off to a good start. Oh did I mention, 
after 
being a part of the SparkFamily. I look forward to the days, weeks, months and years to come as a Sparker. I know with continued effort I will get down to the ideal weight (whatever that is). 
Happy 1 Year Sparkaversary.
out of the fiery furnace of that unpleasant place. Just for the record my MIL (love her to death) can be a little dramatic. Just because dad got a little dizzy and went back and laid down, MIL all but called in the priest 
. Come to find out dad had not 1. eaten - 2. was moving too fast - 3. having some side effects from his meds. So glad it was not the end the way MIL made it sound. I guess now would be a good time to speak on my other personal events. 
My mom had an emergency DNC on Friday, November 12. Her sister is in the hospital in AL (she had surgery on Monday). Now my mother is getting ready to take a 12 hour bus ride to AL. Me and my sister are trying to talk her out of it but she has made up her mind and she will be leaving sometime this Friday. She is grown and I am going to leave it alone. 
for the family. Six people is now down to 4 with the possibility of going down to 2.

and 5 mins on the stairmaster. I thank my 15 mins of exercise for helping me survive what could have been a wild Monday. Left my granola bar at home
