the ok...

I got the ok to walk at the doctor's. The cyst can't move (it's not a clot). It doesn't hurt as much today. He did give me a anti imflamatory that seems to help. So I shall walk today. He didn't weigh me, so I will weigh later. Maybe for a while I just concentrate on healthy. I have been eating low carb for sure, food program is still intact. I really need to fill that gallon jug of water up and get to drinking. I did go for a little walk that night. Nothing big though. I don't like to exercise, but I do need to do it. I know that. The motivation mojo is fading. I don't feel as perky as last week. I haven't wanted to eat bad, it's just seemed easier. I know this is why I am bloggin. To get thru these kinds of feelings. I need to get grateful with a quickness. So what have I got to be grateful for....LOTS. I am still geting dressed every day. Last month that was just not done.....and for along time before that. I feel better about myself just by making that one change. One small right choice makes it easier to make that next right choice. Work is going much better also. I am here all by myself today. I brought lots of snacks....so I should ok. I am keeping myself busier at home, time goes by faster and I feel better about myself because I am accomplishing something. Not just watching TV. It got to the point that I wanted to throw the remote thru the TV. The past couple of weeks I haven't watched very much. I can grateful for that. Damn my head that tells me I am not doing enough, your never going to loose this weight, your life can't really change. I call Bullshit! I am starting to recognize when I am lieing to myself. Daily Affirmations......I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and gosh darn it, people like me!!!!!!

    good job on the affirmations!!

    I hated to exercise at the beginning..........I literally had to convince and drag myself out the door for my 30 min walk each day. After a few weeks, it got easier..everything, the breathing, the sore muscles, EVERYTHING!!

    Now when I miss a few days of exercise, I don't feel good and I crave it :)

    You can do it :)

Contentment at last

Oh my goodness!!  I can't beleive how long it's been since I haave posted here.  So maybe things have changed.  The month I moved in with my son and daughter in law, a friend from high school asked if I wanted to be a "Granny Nanny" for her 86 year old mother.  It would mean moving back to my home town and living with the woman.  I didn't hesitate.  I had a good feeling about it from the start, so I went for it.  So, as of the first of October I have been residing in a cozy little home in Orem, UT.  The woman is just a sweetheart.  So easy to please and I feel so comfortable.  The pay is great too.  I like living with someone and it has just been a win/win.  I love my surroundings.  I love the mountains, the memories, being around my extended family.  My sister lives here, as does my aunt, a ton of cousins on both sides of the family.  Of course the downside is I am away from my kids and my grandkids.  I m...

A Traditionally Built Woman

I am listening to the latest No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency books. Blue Shoes and Happiness. They are sweet simple stories about a woman in Botswana Africa. She is a "traditionally built" woman. This means of course that she is heavy. I have never seen the show on HBO, but I love the books. In this book she decides to go on a diet. All her litle "insights" about going on a diet are cute....and so true. My favorite is how it's human nature that when you decide to restict ANYTHING you always end up wanting more of it. How she thought that was funny, until she herself was on a diet, now not so funny. How she gets crabby when she's hungry. I could so relate and it made me smile. People, we are more alike then we are different. The book is written by a white man, which I think is great. See, more alike then we are different. I have my grandkids birthday party today. My daughter, "C," is doing 2 kids in one party. They are still young enough that they don...
