So I have to go grocery shopping tomorrow. We are out of almost everything in the house. There's nothing to eat....and I don't mean that like most people mean that. You know when kids go to the fridge and it's full , but there's still "nothing to eat" meaning nothing "good" to eat...That's not the case here...there's just plain nothing to eat...hahaha. So tomorrow I'm off to the grocery store...going to get some yummy food that's also good for you....look at wrinkle creams..lol....and hopefully not spend too much. Yeah right..lol!

I was playing around with my camera phone today while I was bored. I took a pic of myself, just for giggles ya know, wow was that a mistake..lol! I knew my wrinkles were bad, but not that bad. Maybe it was just the angle or the lighting, but they looked really bad around my eyes. I'm getting old...lol! I shouldn't have wrinkles..I'm only 31. That doesn't sound right to me..lol! Maybe I'm just in denial. Oh well. I'll be getting me the best wrinkle cream I can find and slathering stuff all over my face..lol!

Love it!

So about a year ago I bought a treadmill. I absolutely love having one. I'm not an "outdoorsy" person...so I love to be able to walk inside. It's absolutely my favorite piece of fitness equipment I have ever owned...and trust me..I've owned a lot..lol! I love popping in my earbuds, cranking up my tunes and just walking. As much as I hate exercise, I still haven't gotten to the point of hating the treadmill...I still enjoy it after a year..I think that says a lot..lol! If you don't have one. I highly recommend it.

So today we had a little family reunion to go to, and it was hot!! The thermometer at the eye doctor said it was a whopping 92 degrees...way too hot for me. I prefer a nice 75 degrees. I think that is the perfect temp. The reunion was ok though, we mostly just sat around and talked and sweat a lot..lol..oh and ate a lot. I had 2 slices of watermelon and spent a good hour choking and itching..lol! I'm slightly allergic to it...but it's sooo good that I can't not eat it when it's around...I'm a glutton I guess. It was really good though..lol. We're home though and the kids are pooped and about to go to bed...Yay for quiet time!

I'm getting pretty tired. I think it's about time for me to curl up on the couch with a blanket and finish watching these top 100 songs. I'm sure the kids will be up bright and early in the morning....I have grocery shopping to do...car insurance quotes to get, cleaning to do, laundry to do..so I think a good night's sleep will do me good. Oh and I of course have to do the treadmill tomorrow. Goodnight everybody!

So I'm watching the top songs of the 90's, on my crappy tv. We so need a new tv, it's not even funny. I'd really like to get a new flat panel tv...they're out of our price range right now though.... and any of the nice tv stands to go with it. I really wish we could afford it though, that would be niiiiice. If someone would like to buy me one, I'd be all for that....any offers? Oh come on!...... PLEASE? fine...geesh.....I guess I'll watch my crappy one. Hey, what if I promised to do exercise videos on it? No? hahahha!

I'm hoping that the next time I get on the scale I see a big drop in numbers...I'm not holding my breath or anything, but it would be nice...lol. I'll give it a little while before I weigh myself...and if I don't see any results than I'll start taking the leftover weight loss pills that I have...I think I have like half a bottle left. That should be enough to get the ball rolling. I'll probably weigh in in about a week...wish me luck.

So I wanted to go grocery shopping today, but I didn't get around to it. I guess I could still go, but I'm just not feeling it now...lol. Maybe tomorrow. I also need to go walmart or the health food store to look into irvingia. I've heard some stuff about it..and want to look at it. I also want to get some kind of shake or diet bar to help with the hunger..cause it's bad..haha. I'll be fine though. Especially once I start seeing the number on the scale go down.

Just got off the treadmill, and I feel pretty darn good. I'm tired...but it's a good tired. A "I actually did something productive" tired....lol! I walked for an hour....worked up a good sweat.. and it went by pretty quick today, I just listened to my tunes and walked my little butt off...ok I walked my big butt off...I'll be honest..hahaha. I've kind of been slacking on the eating...so I have to get better about that...and drinking water....I also need to look into what are the best weight loss supplements and see if they are right for me. Lots to do still, but I'll get there...I have to...I have 30 lbs to lose!! lol!

I don't miss being a teenager at all. They are awkward years....very awkward..lol! I was recently talking to a few teens and oh boy was I definitely reminded of that. The hormones, dating, acne...at least you can get an acne pill or cream now....I'm sure that helps a lot of teens out now. But there is still the teen hormones, drama, and overall awkwardness that I do not miss and never will..hahaha. Sorry teenagers...you'll grow out of it eventually.

So today is much, much cooler than it has been. The past week it's been in the 90's and today it's probably only in the low 80's ...it feels wonderful. I'm sitting here and actually NOT sweating ..it's great! hahha! I'm going to be sweating in a minute though, I'm getting on the treadmill for a little while..hahha! That's ok though, it's worth it....or it will be when I lose weight and can buy some smaller sized pants. :)

Oh my gosh is it hot. It has to be like 95 degrees outside...it's at least 82 in the house...and it's a lot warmer outside. I hate hot days....it's days like this that actually make me wish it was winter. I wish it was snowing and blowing and I hate to put on my winter coat and snow boots and venture out into a winter wonderland....aaaahh..yeah that would nice right now. I'm just going to pretend that's where I am. I can dream, right? lol!

Well this weekend has been a pretty good holiday weekend. We didn't really go out and do much, but we've had quite a bit a fun just hanging around the house. My eating hasn't been the best this weekend, but it hasn't been horrible..so I'll take that. I've really been wanting to start a fire and make some smores...but I'm not going to! lol! But they do sound really really good..lol! I hope everyone is having a fun and safe holiday. I know that we are overrun with tourists right now. They are everywhere. The traffic is horrible and the lines at the store are LONG. I am jealous of all the campers and people hauling Rv's and stuff... I wish I had one..that would be so nice. I've looked at them before and you can get a pretty good deal on a 5th wheel with a 5th wheel warranty. I might have to just think a little bit more on it. That is my kind of camping..lol!

Ok....so I haven't posted in a while. I've had a lot go on in the last few months. Some good, some bad....some just kind of blah. I'm back though and will be posting more regularly again. I managed to drop about 30 pounds last year from around July to December and keep it off...and I'm hoping to do it again this year. I have a friend that's joining me in this little weight loss adventure. She's ready and I think she'll do great. She's also going to be quitting smoking with the help of electronic cigarettes, so we'll see how that goes. So anyways...I'm back...I'm going to be losing 30lbs hopefully by December and I'm going to be keeping it off! Wish me luck!!
