Versatile Blogger Award! Hehe

Thanks so much to Lavenderdiva for nominating me for the Versatile blogger award!!! It makes me laugh because my posts have been few and far between lately, so that's definitely versatile! hehe...still appreciated however! :)

As for everything else...I again didn't think about weighing myself before the coffee. I slept in until almost 9:30 today, that doesn't happen very often! This past week has been torture and I wore myself out, so it felt very good! I will weigh tomorrow! This past week has been full of telling myself "I will make it through today", "I will survive"! lol But I did...I made it through, I did survive...all of this crap related to work...it's just crazy...but it too will pass! :)

On a happy note, I just read some results from the Special Olympics USA National Games that are taking place in Lincoln, NE and still have goosebumps from head to toe reading that 2 of my long time friends received GOLD metals. My friend Shannon actually received 2 golds and my friend Bobby got a gold and a silver....amazing...I am so proud of them both!!! YAY!!!

Other good news...if you read my blog, you know that my hubby races stock cars (dirt track) and this past Sunday he FINALLY won a race...we were all so happy...he was overdue and he well deserves it!!! :) Here is the picture!

I hope everyone has a great weekend...and I will do my duty from my versatile blogger award in the next 2 days! :)

I am alive!! LOL!!!

Sorry to be MIA for so long...of course the summer is uper busy...and work the past 2 weeks has been absolutely CRAZY!!!! Thanks to the state of Nebraska, it won't slow or calm or whatever you want to call it for at least the next two months, so I will post as much as I can! Of course, this meant bad eating all week...and it is my pms week...double whammy!! I am up 2 lbs today...but that is after I thought about weighing, which was after a cup of coffee with cream! lol So it might not be as bad as I think...but next week definitely needs to be full of clean phase 3 like eating! I feel miserable and bloated so if not for the weight, I need to do it to feel better! :) Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend....I am off and running....again!

Oh and I guess here's where I no longer count my days of lifetime maintenance because I have no idea what day it is!!! LOL!!!! :):):)

LM Day 45

Good morning all! So I was absolutely frightened to weigh myself today...wasn't going to...drank a cup of coffee and then thought...better face the facts since this is the thinking that got me into the overweight situation to begin with!!! My fear was because I don't think I have eaten as much junk in my whole life as I did this past week...out of control!!! :) Week to week I keep telling myself that I am going to eat better and cleaner...and then I don't know what happens...life happens and BAM! Anyway, enough with my blabber...I did it and I was pleasantly surprised...I gained less than a pound from the last time I weighed (2 weeks ago, I think)! So I am still hovering around 5 lbs over ldw...like I said in a post earlier, I am truly amazed by this protocol...I can eat like this and stay about the same weight...WOW!!!! I am again going to tell myself to eat clean and healthy this week...we'll see how that plays out! lol I really want to get back to ldw!!! Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend! :)

LM Day 42

Not much today, other than it's another hump day! :) I am once again looking forward to the weekend and I think that every weekend should be a 3 day weekend!!! haha :) Here's wishing everyone a wonderful Wednesday! :)

Here are the pictures I promised!!

LM Day 41

Well it's back to work today... =( Oh well, I work well and eat better with a schedule, so I don't know what I would do without a job! lol When I had the day off yesterday it was rainy and gloomy and now that I am back at work today, the sun is shining and it's beautiful out...what's up with that?!?!?!? :) I realized this morning how amazed I am with this protocol. I have been eating things that I would have never dreamt of eating without gaining weight...absolutely amazing!! I have really been putting myself out there and eating A LOT (which I need to stop) but in the past I would have gained at least 10 lbs by now!! The reason I say I need to stop is because I don't like eating all the junk I am, I need to get back to eating good, healthier food. It's so hard though when it doesn't cause a huge gain! lol But I will get back to the healthier lifestyle!!

LM Day 40

Well I guess I might as well post, even though the day is almost over! Lol! I had a fantastic 4th of July weekend, hope everyone else did also! Lots and lots of celebrations, good family, good friends and good food!! I feel like I ate and ate and ate...starting tomorrow I must eat clean!! :) My husband got some wonderful fireworks photos, I will try to post one in a little bit. It's back to work tomorrow for me...darn, days off always go way too fast! :(

LM Day 37...Sorry, just had to do it! :)

Just had to change my background in celebration of Independence Day!!! I am getting anxious for the long weekend to get here...can ya tell?? lol On another note, I was a big scaredy cat this morning and did not weigh...I ate DQ late last night...so I will eat better today and weigh in tomorrow! 8-) Happy Friday to all...hope you have a fantastic 4th of July weekend!

LM Day 36

Welcome July...and ladies...we made it over the hump again...it's Thursday!!! I am really looking forward to a 3 day weekend...I get Monday off!!! YAY!!!! :) So finish out today and then only one more day of work before the fun begins!! Or should I say continues...the beginning of this week was pretty fun! lol Anyway, I went to bed at 10:00 last night...it was wonderful...I really needed some sleep!! :) Funny thing is that I woke up feeling more tired than any other morning...so weird how that works! Hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful day!
