Weight loss and sickness and more.....

Hey everyone reading, even though it may only be a couple of people. =) I have got to stop waiting an entire week before I blog again. I am gonna end up forgetting what I want to say when I do this. lol Oh well, if I forget, I guess it isn't very important.

Let me start off with my weight loss journey. Well, I really am not the happiest person because I didn't lose any weight this weigh in. In fact, I gained weight. =( This of course makes me very sad. Good news is, I only gained a pound and I am pretty sure I know what caused it. So this week I can fix this issue and hopefully lose that pound plus. It didn't help any that I could not work out due to not being able to breath. Also, it didn't help that in the past 3 days, I had a piece of cake each day and with not working out.. shame on me.  But like I said, I know what caused my problem and now I have the knowledge to fix it.

I was talking to my sister and she gave me a link to a great site for me to track my calories and my exercise. I am hoping this will help me keep on track and lose the weight that I want. What website would that be you ask. lol Well it is Myfitnesspal and even thought I just started using it today, I really like it. I hope it really helps me reach my goal weight loss.

So Sunday was Chris's 40th birthday and me being such a great girlfriend got him a beautiful sterling silver necklace and threw him a surprise party. He didn't want me to do anything but I had to do something. Besides, I really figured he would enjoy it and guess what, he did. I told him that we were just going to dinner with my mom and the kids. At one point he had asked me if someone was meeting us there and I told him no. He asked me this because I was rushing him out the door. lol We get there and he was surprised with his brother and niece, his sister, his son and his girlfriend, my sister and brother-n-law and his other niece ended up showing up as well. We had such a great time that we were at Fuddruckers for 3 hours. lol I bet they were ready to see us leave. lol Oh and about the necklace, Chris loved it. He put it on right after he opened it and hasn't taken it off since. So I say I did a pretty good job. =)

So I finally started feeling better Saturday and Sunday. I think it was because I finally got to get some decent rest. I got to sleep in and just relax and I think that really did the trick. Granted I didn't lay around the house like I really wanted to but that was because my mom was in visiting for the weekend. She actually came in for Chris's birthday. We had a good visit and I ended up with a new coffee maker. lol Well let's just say, my mom has to have her coffee and my coffee pot was dripping so dang slow that we got a new one and I love it.

Anyway, I have to get back to work. Until I blog again!
