Becky Boo’s Weightloss for LIFE

Hi everyone. I am at work today. just paid all my bills and sad to be low on cash… Nothing new I took some of the residents to a Heart Health Fair at one of the local hospitals this morning. It was neat and we got free subway. It was pretty awesome! Now I am just waiting for the ‘ol clock to hit 4 pm so I can head home. Yipppieee! I am going to meet some friends out tonight. I am going to drink strictly water. I am not even going to have diet soda, just water. I have been trying to fill my time with other things lately cause I feel like I wasted so much time sitting on my couch over the last few years, the past one especially. Man, I wasn’t living, I was existing and I didn’t even realize it! I refer to it as “hoarding” my time. If I am going to be up til mid night anyways, why sit home  alone all the time? Even when I lived with the ex, he works nights and I spent each one of them home alone. So I decided single girls dont need to be bumps on a log! LOL. I am also excited cause in a few weeks a friend and I are heading to Wisconsin to visit one of my friends since age 12. I go every other year and she comes down here a few times a year. I love her so much and ALWAYS enjoy the time I spend with her. So I am pretty excited. Well, nothing too excitig to report, just blabbing on as usual. I am going to try and catch up on some more bloggies. Hope you are all enjoying your weekend!

Hi all. Ok so I weighed in this morning and the scale said I had lost 5 pounds this week. I dont believe this to be true. I think that I really only lost about three so I am re qeighed and it said the same thing. I guarantee tomorrow it will be higher but I guess 5 pounds it is as of weigh in day. I am headed to the mall to buy something. Jeans I hope… This one pair I have that fits turns saggy after not tha long of wearing them. Grrr… Going to make today a high cal day I think. Going out to dinner with my best friend. Oh, and my cousins play—it was great. She is amazing. I can’t believe I have never been to one of her plays before and this was her last college production. Anywho, hope you are all doing well and making good choices. Please have a safe and happy weekend!

Hi everyone. I am feeling much more like me today. I am eating better today, already have plenty of cals in so maybe not getting sick afterall. I am getting ready to leave for my cousin’s play. Hope you all have a great evening of good health and even better choices

Hi everyone. Man, I had a long day. Just got home from school and it is almost 10:30pm and have been gone since 7:15 am. I have my first test of the semester next week. The teacher did what he called a review but it wasnt really. He sped mumbled through some of the questions and since I am a pretty quick typist, I used my classmates laptop to tyoe what he said. I did ok but he was supe rhard to understand. It would be different if he acually taught is the info but he DOESN’T. He has us each take a section to present to the class then he adds a few comments in here or there. And we are paying for this. Alot… Grrr… Oh well. Will have to study for this one. I am doing okay food wise. I am still feeling like I am coming down with something. Feeling kind of clammy. My appetite really wasnt back today either. This is bothering me cause I know I need to eat enough but I am just not. Complete opposite of me six months ago! I am thinking positive so I don’t get sick though. I can’t believe this week is almost over already. I am off Friday cause I work the weekend. This month just flashed right on by. I am finally watching the BL from yesterday. If I can stand to stay up long enough I will watch the one from tonight too. Tomorrow I am going to go to my cousins play. Her parents called me tonight while I was in class and offered for me to go with them so I am going to take them up on it. I usually only see them once a year—and I love 5 minutes form my aunt and uncle… So that will be nice. Well, sorry this has been so dry I hope you are all doing well and making good choices!

Hi everyone. Well, I was so glad to see my staff person who was on vacation last week that I attacked her with a hug today! I have had ZERO appetite today. Not sure if I am getting sick or what. I did get a one mile walk in though. Not the greatest but after Saturday’s walkathon at Mardi Gras, least I got my muscles moving again. Baby steps. I wore my new khaki pants today. I guess when you stop wearing the baggy butt pants and start wearing new clothes that fit right, people REALLY start to notice the weightloss cause my boss, the psychiatrist for my clients and a staff of another group home all about died when they saw me today. The psychiatrist was the funniest about it though cause I usually send my say staff to the appts but I went today since she just got back to work and all and he seriously almost fell out of his chair. Ha Ha Ha. Anywho, then I went to my sisters after work and hung out with her and my niece and mom. There was  a bad accident on my way home. I am tired of accidents. There was one this past Saturday where a 24 yearold lady, her husband and their unborn baby were killed in a drunk driving accident—at 4 in the afternoon. Not far from my house—just a few miles. So sad and scary. A drunk driver hit them, sent them sailing into oncoming traffic into another DRUNK DRIVER! OMG. Terrible. Anywho, I am not even going to tell you guys what I ate today. It is not good. No where near enough. Not hungry. Hmm… I will have to tell the Cougars though. I think I used up all my mojo on Saturday lol. Tomorrow is a new day. Have class til late so probably wont be on much tomorrow. Gone from 7:15 am til after 10 pm. Hope you are all having a good night and making good choices

Hi everyone. Man, I wish I felt as high on life today as I did yesterday… Guess the excitment wore off and now the exhaustion has just caught up with me. I needed this day to recover from my hectic week last week and then my partying all afternoon and night Saturday. Ahh, such fun. Now back to reality, right? I have a plan for this week to eat a can of soup each day for lunch. I think I was pretty much doing that the week I lost 3-4 pounds and then I would add a string cheese or smart pop and a sugar free pudding in here and there too. I am ready to bust through the 230s as quickly as I did the 240s! I mean, just a couple weeks it seems and they were gone gone gone. My muscles are still REALLY sore today from all the walking I did Saturday. I knew they would be though cause last time I went to Mardi Gras I gurt like I did during the first week of basketball practice each fall LOL. So I was expecting it. Well, guess it is back to work for me tomorrow. I feel much better this afternoon than I did when I woke up at 6 this morning. Maybe I will be brand new tomorrow… I hope you all find yourselves well. Count your blessings and make good choices

Hi everyone. I had so much fun yesterday. I only made it at Mardi Gras a few hours cause it got bitter cold towards evening. I ended up going to a bar with my friend who took me to Mardi Gras and I met the CUTEST guy EVER. I did not DO anything I should not have but he DID come over and I did make out into the wee morning hours lol. YAY! I REALLY needed that. I thanked him for not being a mass nurderer… I can’t believe I had a stranger in my house. It was worth it! I only ate one time yesterday though—bad idea. But the boy took me out to eat this morning. Wanna know what sux, I live in St. Louis, Mo and he lives in Tulsa, OK. Ouch. Yep, figures I meet the coolest guy ever and he lives far away. Oh well. I had fun. I seriously walked more than ever yesterday. Miles upon miles. Probably 6 total, or more. I am perfectly worthless today though. I am giddy over my night and SOOO happy that I feel smaller and pretty again! Grrr… Why does it take a boy thinking we are pretty to make us feel this way?!?!?!?! Ok, I am donw blabbing on about that. I am hungry!

Hi everyone. I am so happy to be sitting on my couch finally. I think I may stay here ALL night long. LOL. I was on the GO all day today at work and then came home and cleaned cleaned cleaned since I will be gone all day tomorrow. At first I was thinking I was TOO old for Mardi Gras but then I was like, HECK no I am NOT. I am 29 and I want to have some fun. I will not get there in time for the BIG parade but that is okay. It is only supposed to be 15-25 degrees tomorrow… So I am going to be freezing right along with thousands of other people. Tomorrow will DEF be my high cal day. I am going to eat a substantial lunch before I go then there will be the draft beer there. I am not wanting to wear a coat but I was talking to my mom earlier on the phone and you know how that goes… Hee Hee Hee. She told me I HAD to wear a coat… We will see about that. I am thinking layers. I got another new pair of pants at NY N CO. I needed jeans to wear tomorrow cause you cant go to a GIGANTIC party in saggy butt jeans so I got a REALLY cute pair of jeans there for only $19.95. There was only one pair left in my size since they are moving in the spring clothes already so I figure, it WAS meant to be, right? I bagged up three bags of pants and a few shirts lastnight to give away. Probably close to $1000 in clothes. No kdding. It is all from Lane Bryant. Some of the pants I only wore once or twoce so I am going to be making my co worker one HAPPY lady. I am the happiest though cause they NO longer fit me! Yipppieee!My new ring is also already getting too big for my finger. I am going to have to have it sized down soon. I am waiting though til it absolutely is falling off cause it costs $35 to size. I am hoping next week is less stressful than this one. My tooth is still bothering me but no fever from it today thank goodness. Well, I could blab on and on and on but I REALLY want to catch up on blogs. I am so curious to see how everyone is doing. I hope you all have a great weekend buddies!

Hi everyone. I am so tired. I went straight from work to help my friend pick out new furniture cause she is leaving her children’s father. I have had the busiest week with my day staff being on vacation this week  and so much to do. I am completely EXHAUSTED! I feel like there are NO where near enough hours in the day. Especially to sleep! I am not feeling a big loss this week. I am hoping for one pound… Grrr. I have done well with my eating this week but still no exercise. Maybe the scale will suprise me… It is hard to go from a 3 pound loss to a 4 pound loss to not expecting much but I will take any loss, especially since I have gotten rid of almost every pair of pants I was wearing 4 months ago as of tonight. I threw them all in a bag cause they no longer fit. YEAH! So I know things are def changing. I have not had time to read much on here today and need to go to sleep. I hope things slow down soon. I wish you all well and a GREAT weekend. Goodnight.

Hi everyone. It is after 10 pm and I just got home from school. Been gone since 7:20 am and I am sleepy. I have had a very bad tooth ache for two days now, maybe longer? I need to have an exposed nerve repaired but I am waiting for my benny card to have enough on it to get the work done to cover the co pay. I did not plan well enough today as far as food gies. I still need to eat a minumum of 300 cals before I go to bed. Grr. I need to bring a sandwhich or something with me to eat on the way or something. One of the girls on class today told me that she thinks I teach better than the teacher I laughed. Our Professor is quite intelligent but he is over 70 and he really should not be teaching anymore. He is kind of confusing for the people who don’t have a solid background in psychology or experience yet in the mental health field. The teacher’s way of explaining things is sometimes cloudy and full of details that are confusing for some people. I am often asked to clarify in simpler, more clear terms by my classmates. I don’t mind. It actually helps me to learn better. Anywho. I wore one of my new pair of pants today. The dress pant ones. They fit perfectly. So St. Louis has their own Mardi Gras, second only to New Orleans. I am going to go this Saturday. I am excited but nervous cause you just NEVER know what is going to happen there Alrighty, I better get off here so I can find something to eat before I go to sleep. I am having trouble keeping my little eyeballs focused… Have a great end of your week buddies—we all deserve it !
