Who's the boss?

I decided to show my self-image who's boss. So here are a couple of pics of me and the jeans!



I really felt like I was having good ass day.....lol

Token over the shoulder pose. lol. I was feeling sassy ( see what those pants do for me )and I actually felt ok about posting jean pictures with my head on. Something about that whole thing kind of messed me up. I decided that this is not about what I look like. It's about the journey and having fun. I am happy with the body I see in those pictures today. It feels good after feeling so crappy the past week or so.

I had a great day yesterday. I really feel like the fog is lifting. My co-worker has been there all week. That makes it fun. It gets lonely working in that house all by myself. TLC was filming at the little sandwich shop we love. They were picked as a best bakery. Anyway, I thought it was yesterday but it was the day before. Story of my life. A day late and a dollar short. We did have a nice lunch. I did great. Gave my cookie away and just had a sandwich and a pickle. Today is my bosses Bday. He is a sweet old guy. We told him we wanted to take him to lunch. He was delighted. He's the Patriarch of the family business. He and his wife live next door to the house I work in. They really are like family. So another lunch out. I can do it and still make good choices.

The positive thing is that I didn't over eat yesterday. I didn't have the "full enough to hurl" feeling. Gross but true. I have to remember that I will have bad days maybe even weeks. I have to remember that a bad day or two doesn't have to mean that I am going to gain all my weight back.

My tender mercy today is the way I felt yesterday. So nice to feel calm and at peace. Even happy. I am also loving the new book I am reading. The Help by Kathryn Stockett. Nothing better then a really good book.

Keep the mood and the food real.......show your self image who's boss!

    Lookin' good, chica!

    I have found myself taking a lot of "mirror pics" lately... which isn't like me at all! I usually avoid the camera like poison, but now I am taking pictures of MYSELF all the time? I guess it is a sign that my self-image is slowly improving....

    Great post!

    Great site you have here. I came across your site from another site. I have a blog myself which I hope will be a top resource for those looking to find the motivation to lose weight.

    I'd like to exchange links with you to help spread some traffic around between each other. Please let me know if this is possible under our "Best Weight Loss Websites" page. Until then, keep up the good work!

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...
