What am I doing today? Trying to get the motivation to be constructive. My parents were here and since they left it seems like everything has fallen apart in 24 hours. I got everything ready for DD for school tomorrow. I still have to cut up some fruit for her lunch, but she already has spinach tortellini, brocolli and half a chicken patty. I think I'll just pack a yogurt and a waffle for breakfast. I've DISed all I can. I cleaned DD's room. Worked on unpacking some non-essential bathroom stuff. Trying to unpack the clean clothes in baskets. Once that is done maybe I'll vacuum the upstairs, and pick up DD's toys downstairs. The kitchen is a mess, too. DH helps with stuff during the week, but not on the weekends so much. I'm also trying to fight the urge to hop in my car and get BK for dinner. I don't even know what I'm gonna have. I obviously want to keep losing weight, but my goal is so far away. Yeah, I lost 13 pounds, but I still just feel overweight because i have 25 still to go. Oh, I failed to mention, DH and DD went down to his parents (about 30 miles away) for dinner. They left 30 minutes ago. I have youth group tonite so I couldn't go with.

Uh-oh, my washer is taking off, I better go check on it. (Its one of those HE kinds).

I think I'm bummed because my post-baby body isn't the same as my pre-baby body. Since DD was so big I have this big pouch of skin that just hangs under my belly button. It really gets me down. I'm hoping that once I slim down I can firm up, but even my goal isn't exactly thin...its just within a normal weight range. I should lose another 10-20 to be thin...but that's not realistic. I like BK.

Hi there!! I wish I could drive over to help you with your house. All of that stuff can be so frustrating.

Ewwww - that's such a man job. Glad you didn't have to go !

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

blahhh i'm glad he doesn't need help too! hahah! i think he likes doing it himself, b/c he gets some nice, quiet time down there!

 

[dreamergirl78]

Yes, Timmy's page is very cool. I looked at it this morning. She also sent me another text message!

I am almost done with laundry for the day! Yahoo!

Rebecca - YOU ARE DOING GREAT! Keep up the good work. Losing weight is never easy, if it were we would all be skinny model types!

Even when Terry was here, I usually took care of the oil changes. He was always too busy during the week to do it! But, since he is gone so much, I really have leanred how to do a lot of that kind of stuff for myself. It's the independent streak in me!

Where in the heck is CHRIS??? And CAT????

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

eww..i wouldn't even bother to learn how to do it! hahaah! just not ME ya know I'm all about pulling into the oil place (wherever i would go) and saying oil me please... i have no clue what to do!!

I NEED TO STAY AWAY FROM THE BUDGET BOARD! BUt the good thing is that there were some GREAT deals posted, so i bought my mom her mothers day present from Bath & Body Works! i'm even sending it to her house since we're going to be in DISNEY WORLD!

 

[Msslaydbug]

I haven't seen Chris or Cat on all day ( and I've been kinda popping on and off).

 

[julsmom]

DMM, Do you do smartsource.com?

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

i don't know what smartsource is?? I will check it out!

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

okay just checked it out! no i don't use smartsource, b/c our store does not take internet coupons

 

[Nanu57v]

I don't think ANYONE's post baby body is the same as their prebaby body !!

Yeah, but haven't you seen that commercial where the lady's like 50 in a bikini and says I'm a grandmother and mother of 3 and I look like this! Makes me feel bad. I think that's the point.

 

[Nanu57v]

Rebecca - YOU ARE DOING GREAT! Keep up the good work. Losing weight is never easy, if it were we would all be skinny model types!

Thanks!
