Hiya everyone, I have been slightly MIA this week.
I GAINED 2 lbs, I think mostly because I wasn't following the thread this week and I REALLY need to find someone other than my DH to hold me accountable for my eating and excercising..... any volunteers ? I will "buddy-up" with whoever wants to be buddies. I thought DH would be a good person, but he uses his Drill Seargent tactics too much on me when it comes to this kind of stuff, and to be honest.... he is MEAN

when he gets like that, I totally feel for his soldiers, he turns that off before he comes home.
Anyway, once I could eat real food after my dentist gave the okay Tuesday I ATE and ATE some more. We have been semi busy getting stuff ready for our upcoming "Surprise Lexie, you're not 7 yet but we're going to Disney again" trip ( we have told her she has to wait until she's 7 to go back) Caylin dd14 is NOT going this time, my sister had asked her about babysitting over Spring Break for extra money before we planned this trip. It was supposed to be a surprise for BOTH girls and Caylin overheard us and said she really didnt want to go this time,

and that it would be cool for Lexie to have her "own" trip like she had when she was little.

So after MANY discussions and "are you sures?" we changed our ressies and secretly booked a trip for just Caylin and I in September to celebrate our bdays, but after about a week I gave in and told her, and she's so excited. We ahve had so much fun planning OUR trip. So, the past few days DH and I have been getting ready for Lexie's trip and have eaten out more than we should have. Oh AND we bought a new SUV, I traded in my 05 Mustang for a 07 GMC Envoy, love it. So yes, meals this week have been fast quick ones. BUT I promise I am being good, now. Today, I had 2 cups of coffee and a banana for breakfast with a side of glucophage (yes, I have problems wiht my blood sugar, thanks to PCOS) for lunch I had a bowl of cheerios ( I LOVE cereal, LOL) Dinner tonight will be a salad with grilled chicken, and the kids will have pizza ( my 10 year old twin DSS's will be here this weekend, and we have a Friday night tradition of pizza and a movie) I will be good and make my salad before they get back with pizza and be ready to eat it and not be tempted.
Okay, why is it that everytime I post on here, I write a mini novel? I think it's because since moving here I have not had very much "adult" interaction and I miss it. I am usually VERY active in volunteer organizations and since we are not stationed in a typical military situation it has been difficult. I am going back to school in April so I think that will help.
Anyway, I will SHUT UP and go make sure my chicken is marinating nicely and prep my veggies.
P.S. I found some very good imposter
CROCS at Payless yesterday. I had my "REAL" ones on and could not tell the difference. I bought 4 pairs, right now our Payless is having the BOGO sale so it was like I bought 4 and got one free. I paid for all 4 pair what I would have paid for 1 pair of "real" ones. and YES, I plan on wearing them on my trip, WITH socks ( I don't like the sounds they make without socks, and when I used to wear them for work we HAD to wear socks)
okay, sorry I promise, I'm done, lol
Love you GUYS.... BIG HUGS to all
