I'm so glad I have a place to blog!


Whenever I get bored, I blog. And I get bored a lot so I blog a lot. I'm glad that WW put a blogging feature in their community tools. I know I don't have much to say most of the time but blogging gives me something to do when I don't want to do anything else. It's also great for when I want to eat but it's not because I'm hungry. I can blog instead of eat. This is a good personal tool for me. I really take advantage of it. I probably could have avoided the cookie fiasco this morning if I had started blogging about it first. My intent was to have 2 cookies for 4 PPV's but they were sitting on the counter and were in plain sight so I had 6 more! Yikes! I've put them in a baggie and put that in the snack bin and put the snack bin in a shelf out of the way so I want so it or think about it. I have to straighten out the kitchen and put the dishes in the dishwasher so I don't want them staring me in the face the whole time I'm doing that. Out of sight, out of mind!

I'm just taking a break now to rest my leg. It's weird having the Thermacare wrap on it because it's such a low level of heat that I can't really feel it except when I put my hand on it. It stays warm for quite a while. It's air activated. It does seem to be helping my knee, especially the back where they cyst is, to feel better.

Christine does a meeting at 5:30pm today. I may go to it. I'm just really struggling today and being at a meeting is a good place for me to be. I'd also like to see what she has to see about this week's topic (looking back at the Lose For Good program). Just our center has lost over 5000 pounds in the last 7 or so weeks. Isn't that amazing. I contributed my 8.6 pounds to that total. The days go by so much faster too when I have something to look forward to and something to do. And with the pain that I'm in I don't need the days to drag on. So I think I'll go to the 5:30pm meeting tonight.

I was able to get most of the kitchen straightened out. I only have to put the dishes in the dishwasher. I'll do that in a little while. I need to get things going for dinner tonight too. I'm going to make that Yakitori chicken and rice tonight. I hope it's as good as the one we get as the Yakitori restaurant. I'll let David grill the chicken. I"m going to cube it and put in on skewers just like Yakatori does. I just printed out the recipe so I'll have that for later. It looks yummy. I've already entered dinner into my PP tracker so I know what I can have for the rest of the day. I have 19 points left of my WPPA. Everything resets for me tomorrow so I'm doing just fine. I'm a little nervous about weigh in tomorrow night. I hope I haven't gained any weight. My scale says I'm 288.6. I want to be at 288.4 so I can have lost 10 pounds total in 3 weeks time. Might not happen this week though. I am tracking the housework I'm doing as activity. It's low level and only 10 minutes or so at a time but it's still a point value.

I printed out the schedule for the WW meetings. I find myself pulling up the schedule online often so I just printed it out to have on the calendar.

Okay, I'm even boring myself right now so I better go load the dishes into the dishwasher. Then I might work at straightening out my art room. That really needs to be done. Today is as good a day as any to start.
