{day 29}

My hometown, Houston…I miss the big city.

and we are off…

Wednesday, November 26th, 2008

J and I head to the airport in about 15 minutes for our flight to Houston. Luckily my Mom has wireless in her house, so I won’t be *totally* gone. I’m sure I’ll be sharing pictures and such.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and try not to eat so much, you end up with a food induced coma:-).

WLS: 50 pounds gone FOREVER

Tuesday, November 25th, 2008

Today marks 4 month post-op and I am officially 50.4 pounds down. Needless to say, I am thrilled!

My initial plan when I hit 50 pounds lost, was to go get a makeover but, I recently decided to go back to mineral make-up so I nixed that idea. Instead, I just ordered all new make-up and a few new colors to treat myself. Nothing like acting like a girl occasionally :-).

Now the hard part begins though, the holidays. I know I need a slight fill but don’t go in until next week. So, my goal is to get through Thanksgiving at least maintaining. While I would love to see a loss Monday, I’ll be fine so long as I don’t see a gain.

Anyhow, J and I fly out tomorrow after work, so everyone have a wonderful Thanksgiving and truly realize the blessings in your life!!

{day 28}

For the first time in my life, I no longer dread getting on the scale.

miscellaneous Monday

Monday, November 24th, 2008
  • Today was my final Couch to 5K workout and I am thrilled. These last 3 workouts were supposed to be 30 minutes of running each, but instead I did 33, 35 and then 40 today. This is coming from the person that thought she was going to die with the 2 minute running intervals in the beginning…what a difference. My next goal, is to hit 45 minutes of straight running. Technically that would probably be my next workout but, that will be a week away due to the holidays and being gone, so I doubt I will try that my first day back in the gym.
  • Why is it that leaving to go somewhere is SO much work? J and I fly to Texas Wednesday afternoon and I am overwhelmed. I cleaned the house and did laundry this past weekend, but now I have to pack and am procrastinating. I did start the packing list, does that count?! Needless to say, I am tired tonight so tomorrow night I will be running around like a chicken with my head cut-off, since we head to the airport as soon as I finish work and drop the sitter off Wednesday afternoon.
  • I have one more chapter in the 2nd Twilight book, New Moon before I get to go on. I really wanted to finish it last night, but I was having a hard time keeping my eyes open for the last several pages. The 1st book was definitely better, but the 2nd one is good. Hopefully the 3rd and 4th will follow suit.
  • So, Jacey and I went to see The Nutcracker Ballet Saturday night and had a great time. We had awesome seats and for being a small(er) town production, they did a great job. They did confuse Jacey a bit though, because in her book it is a mouse king and in the show it was a mouse queen.
