Jen's Journal.....Baby Steps to a new me

[Blueeyes101817]

hi everyone!!!! sorry i havent been around in awhile--its been crazy..my computer is stilli n the shop, but should be getting it back tomorrow..
the ice cream guy---dont know where he was..right at the entrance to the world showcase i believe--
im not giving up on prince charming though, i will search again when i go in may--you never know!
Ive been doing horrible with eating..i decided that starting monday i am going to eat right (again!) and start exercising like crazy--i need to get this weight off and keep it off..
been feeling sick lately again--i cant shake this sore throat..and now my tooth hurts (going to the denist tomorrow--hate them!) of course, TOM is coming so im just blah..
i think my thyroid counts are messed up because im very depressed lately..gotta go back to the dr--okay enough complaining!

school is going good, for school i guess-but looking forward to spring break!! the next couple of weeks will be crazy, i have to figure out what to do for summer---the family that i am a nanny for is moving next month (i am soo sad) so i have to find something else--i miss the summers when all i did was play all day!! haha

well hope everything is good with everyone--hoep you didnt forget me and come post

Jen!!!

Sorry you still don't feel right! That is the pits! You are not complaining!!!! If you aren't feeling right you should go see your doctor!!!

I am sorry the family you have been nanny for is moving.. You can get really attached to kids and families, can't you?!

Hope you have a great day!

Hi Jen,

I am so sorry that you aren't feeling well still. Please be sure and take good care of you.

Thanks guys
forgot to add we are getting a treadmill! im excited, i hate running out side, but i will use the treadmill---
between the treadmill and all my brothers weight lifting equipment,,, and the FIRM tapes i have, i think after these 3 months at curves is up, im not going to go back...i havent lost all that much honestly, but im afraid if i give it up, i wont do the working out here--i really gotta get myself to do it--but since im losing the nanny job, im not going to have a lot of extra money coming in (the day care center ill work at this summer is like 8 bucks an hour! ) so i figure thats money i could save--so when that time comes, you guys are gonna have to kick me into working out haha..
jen-its crazy how attached i am to that family--when i went on vacation with them, it just felt like i was with my family..i love the boys and their parents..the older one cries every day bc he doesnt want to leave me..then i get all teary--its going to be rough!!
hope you guys have a grewat weekend!

Hi Jen,

Glad you had a nice trip. I will go over to the trip reports board to read all about it. Sorry you are "losing" your nanny family. That must be hard because you are attached.

I have heard some people just love Curves and others gain weight there. That is what one of my friends told me. I wonder why? I have never been. Good luck with your exercise decision. You should be fine with your own equipment.

Have a great weekend.

Hey Jen! Glad you're back...sorry about your computer and your nanny position. I've been enjoying curves...but it also gets me moving in the morning...I just haven't been very motivated otherwise. I usually do that and then go for a 30 to 60 minute walk afterward. But I do notice that I'm not losing very fast...but that's okay because I know my clothes are fitting looser and inches are going away and bf is reducing. But it's only been 1 month too

Take care..Gail

I've gotten really fond of our tredmill! You will really like it!

I worked at a daycare center all through college summers... It is amazing how hard your work, how much responsibility you have and how little you get paid.... The government really needs to take a look at providing quality child care for it's children, it's future... Ok... I'll get off my soap box!

Have a great day!

 

[Blueeyes101817]

Gail--i think that if i went in the morning, i would like it better....i cant because they dont open till 7 and i leave for school at 6 on most days..by the middle of the day, i just cant see going...its laziness, i know haha

jen-i totally agree with you..last summer my best friend and i ran the 4 year old classroom--we had 20 kids most days..talk about crazy--and we did everything from lesson plans, to field trips, every single thing during the day--then got paid less than 8 bucks an hour...but what gets me, is when i babysit 2 kids, i get 10 bucks an hour haha

hi everyone--im having a great day--i woke up and it was a little slick out so i decided to skip school (only had 1 class)..and i dont have to babysit.
so i went to the mall with my dad to book our cruise ...and now im laying down on the computer--what a beautiful day!!
tonight i am going to go on the treadmill for a bit for the first time--and tomorrow is back to curves--i have a toothach and it kills me to walk or run bc of the vibration on my teeth--what a mess hahah
have a great day everyone

 

[sharoncity]

Hi Jen - I here ya about the exercise. But we've got to "Just do it" alright??!!!

Hope you are feeling a little bit better. Here's some healing just in case. Take care of yourself!

Hi Jen!

That is one thing I loved about college~ skipping classes! I didn't do it often, but it was nice to know that I could take a day off every once in awhile and not have to have a note from "mom" to be excused.

Your trip report was good! Did you add pics yet?

Have a great Tuesday!

 

[Blueeyes101817]

i have my pictures on the computer, but i cannot get them uploaded into the picture program for some reason--ill work on it more this week!

 

[Princess Michelle]

Just popping in to say hey, Jen. I hope your tooth gets to feeling better soon!

 

[sarahsmom73]
