I’ve seen so many blogs with models like this one, I had to join in the fun! 

 I don’t look remotely like this; other than the glasses, the hair and eye color!  LOL!  But I would love to be this thin, and wear a little red dress!  (I LOVE the color red.)  I will get there!  Sexy and Sassy!  LOL!

I LOVE Dory from Finding Nemo.  So does my five year old daughter.  She should be a little fish herself because she loves to swim.  And this summer she has given up the floaties and dashes back and forth across the pool.

I think it’s because of her that I even get my exercise in!  I was doing laps in the pool with her yesterday.  We swam for a little over 30 minutes, and it felt good.  It’s been REALLY hot here in Glendale, Arizona.  We hit 113 yesterday.  Victoria (my five year old) and I went swimming close to 7 o’clock and the sun was pretty much gone.  But it was still H-O-T.  So a dunk in the pool is what we gals needed.

My family (hubby, 3 kids, 2 dogs, me) is pretty new to Arizona; we’ve only been living here for three years now.  Originally we’re from Chicago, so desert living is REALLY different!  We miss home, but we really like Arizona.  Can’t complain because the winters here are AWESOME.  And we get through the summer heat by staying in the A/C and JUMPING IN THE POOL!  Woo hoo!

I had a very OP day yesterday, and have started today off pretty good.  I didn’t have to cook dinner last night because hubby was working, and the older kids were at football and volleyball games.  So it was just Victoria and I.  I went to the freezer to grab a frozen dinner.  I was like, what am I doing, need to check the points first!  Hello! 

So I looked up the points, and this meager frozen dinner was like 9 points!  I SOOO knew that I would still be hungry after consuming that, and would not have any points left to eat something else.  I made a nice tossed salad with red and orange peppers (LOVE THOSE) and made pork chops.  Calculated out to 5.5 points and I was VERY satisfied with my meal.  I was so proud of myself!  And I of course had to celebrate with a bowl of ice cream (2 points) because I had the points to spare!  I had a sinfully delicious ice cream by Breyer’s (spell?) called Triple Chocolate.  It is sugar free, and had little bits of chocolate inside.  Yummy!  All the flavor, none of the guilt!  So yay me for a better choice!

Hope you are all having an OP day, and thanks for stopping by.

I hope it is okay to post these.  A friend sent them to me and I just thought they were a riot.  I hope it makes all of you laugh.  :-)

 I don’t think you’ll be able to see the image above really well.  I’m not real savy with computers, but I’m trying. 

I was feeling MUCH better yesterday and came home from work and just heated up some left overs.  Most of my “house work” was done, so I decided to scrap a few pages.  This is of my DD on her fourth birthday (she’s now 5, so yeah, I’m WAY behind and not just with her pictures!).  LOL!  I like the way the page turned out so I wanted to share, but I don’t have a great camera on my phone and my digital camera DIED!  Sigh.  I need to buy a new camera, but not sure what I want considering there are SOOOO many out there.

Needless to say, being sick, I wasn’t on plan.  I didn’t overeat, but I didn’t eat right.  I was eating chicken noodle soup to feel better, and of course an overload of OJ.  I don’t even want to weigh in on Saturday (changed weigh in to Saturdays).  But I’m going to try and do well from today forward and hopefully I’ll at least stay the same, or a very, very small gain. 

Hope all of you are doing well.  Thanks for stopping by. 

I am so miserable today!  I started feeling the sniffles yesterday, but figured I’d just get a little rest when I got home last night and I would feel better this morning.

NOT!  My head is pounding, my face hurts, my nose is stuffed up, my throat hurts, and I feel nauseous.  And yet, I still came to work this morning.  I had some assemblies that I am the coordinator for so I could not be absent.  But I wanted to be absent!  It’s about 1:15 here and I’m waiting for a coworker to get back from lunch and then I’m leaving.  I need to put my head down on a pillow! 

I just wanted to drop in and say hi.  Hope everyone is doing well, and staying on plan!

Take care, and thanks for stopping by.

I have been gone for way too long, and massively off plan.  I’m not going to post much at the moment.  I just wanted to get on to recommit to my journey!  I don’t know why it is so hard for me this time around!  When I started a little over a year ago, I was like READY.  Majorly determined.  NOTHING was getting in my way, and I lost 29 pounds! 

I’m currently weighing in at 149.  My goal is to get to 125.  I could have been to goal long ago, but I keep getting off the path for one reason or another.  So, here I am, to start a fresh, new day.  I’m not going to worry about what could have been otherwise I won’t get anywhere.  It’s easy to throw in the towel, to fail.  But I refuse to fail.  It may not be a few months from now, or a year from now, but I WILL GET TO MY GOAL!

Have a great day all, and thanks for stopping by.
