go the extra mile

I am in a contest that Jinxx is doing and I have been weighing in twice a week. Once on Monday night ( my officall WW WI ) and then on another scale for Jinxx's contest on Friday. Ok, I know that it isn't the same scale, and that I am wearing "heavier " clothes then usual, but I was 2.5 lbs higher then Monday's weight. .5 lbs lower then my weight from last Friday. I am not really freaked out, just makes me want to do my best over the weekend. Drink lots of water. I kind of had a bad day yesterday. Ate out twice yesterday, made good choices, but still. Plus a 6" subway the night before. Oh and I went back to the dang yogurt shop last night. I was in some kind of a yogurt frenzy. I had to try the peanut butter cup kind. It was good, but come on 2 nights in a row. I haven't binged, but I haven't eaten as clean the last couple of days. I don't have to be perfect. I don't have to be perfect! I have to remind myself. I was back at my 3 mile walk this morning, felt better this morning then yesterday.

I am going food shopping today or tomorrow morning, depending on how I feel. I was up before the buttcrack of dawn. 2:30 AM ......could not get back to sleep. I did go to bed pretty early last night. I felt exhausted.

Anyway, I am going to try making some of the wraps that TJ has been making and posting. Her food always looks so good. Her nachos from this morning's post look DAMN GOOD! I am going to actually check out some new things to make and then buy the food to make it. An interesting concept......seems to really work though..... I really need to start cooking more. ok.....I am thinking about food too much this morning! lol.

Nothing planned for the weekend really. Maybe that new Sandra Bullock movie. It looks like it might be cute. I am going to walk the extra mile tomorrow too!

go the extra mile

    Home cooked food is always healthier than store-bought food! You go, girl!

    And enjoy the weekend!

    I need to go food shopping, too. Now that my fridge is fixed, I can get the fresh fruit and veggies. Maybe tomorrow at the Farmers' Market!

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 miss them terribly, but at the same time I feel like this

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

Dana Does Cancer

Good Morning! It's been a long time since I used this blog. I've decided that I had so much success using this blog as a tool to lose 100 pounds, I'm going to blog my way as I fight cancer To The Best of My Ability. Yep, it looks like I have rectal cancer. There is a 20 mm tumor in the old poop shoot. Just shows Heavenly Father has a sense of humor. Seems a fitting consequence for being an asshole for the first half of my life. (my two children will verify this) The good news it's not gone to the lymph nodes per the CT scan, I will get the results of a PET scan, along with a port for chemo Monday or Tuesday. And so it begins... I have every reason to be optimistic. It's still early. I'm still  going to need radiation and chemo to shrink the tumor and wait 5-6 weeks and have a resection, then more chemo is needed. I am grateful for health insurance, though I can't work for at least six months, maybe more. When I went to the surgeon on Friday he told me I
