Motivaton Monday

I am back to doing this !  Jeannette and myself are the only ones that I 'know' that are participating in the Virtual Biggest Loser Contest !  I get an email with a list of everybody else participating, but I don't 'know' them !!  haha

So, this week:  I am drinking more water and less coke zero.  Wow, the headaches I am having from caffeine.  But, it is all worth it for me to be more healthier.  I am also going to go back to the gym when I come back from Florida.  I can rock my world there.

Start packing today !!  :)  I am really looking forward to going down to see Mom.  I call her everyday, but I called her several times yesterday while I was at Wal Mart to see if she needed anything else.  I asked her if she needed deodorant, toothpaste or anything like that and she said she was fine.  I have to trust her.  

About Face Book yesterday, I just checked it quickly.  I am doing pretty good, but I do feel an addiction.  I guess you could say that I am more nosy that anything !  LOL

Busy.. busy day !!  Florida bound Tuesday morning.  I have to be at the airport at 7:00 am.  I live an hour and a half from the airport.  We are leaving at 5:30.  What time am I getting up ?!?!?!  Can you say 4:30 !!  Oh, it is a new experience for me, too.  I am changing airplanes this time.  I am not flying direct.  I know, sigh.  I fly from St. Louis, to Chicago Midway.  (Flying Southwest).  Change planes, Southwest terminal.  From Chicago to Ft. Myers.  Then on Wednesday, when I fly home.  I don't fly direct.  I fly from Ft. Myers to Orlando.  From Orlando to St. Louis.  I went the cheap route.  But, with Southwest you don't have to pay for your luggage.  I am doing some blog posts that are already are scheduled.  But, I will let you know what my mom says about my breast reduction as soon as I can get to the computer where she lives !!  :)  Until then... good bye !!  :)

Motivation Monday

Have you jumped on the bandwagon yet?  If not, let's get started!

Remember last week?!?  I started Motivation Monday with weight loss in mind.

I did start walking, well I started walking Pedro again, since my hubby has gone back to work.

I have also started to drink water.  Not 32 oz. yet.  But, one 12 oz glass a day!

Well, sitting at the computer, has gotten worse !!  Since I have NO more back problems, YEAH!!, I can sit here for hours... hours.. did I say.. HOURS and HOURS.. ok, I think you get the idea !!  :)  I am really going to have to start to do something about this !!  REALLY !!!!

Does anyone have ideas to help me here??  I really could use some help.  I could only sit for 20 minutes at a time.  Now, it is hours and hours at a time.  I do have a life... but, my friend is the computer!!

I have my second week post op appointment with my plastic surgeon.  I hope he takes this nipple bolsters, the thick padding, that is sewn to my nipples.  Everything really looks great !! 

If anyone has any ideas on how to limit my time on the computer, I am listening !! 

I got started with Motivation Mondays from A Hippo With A HeadBand.  Let me know if you join in !!

Have a great week!!  :)

Motivation Monday

I am jumping on the bandwagon!

Welcome to Motivation Monday!  I am late with it !!

I want to loose 30 pounds and I have fallen off my routine.  I don't drink the water I used, too.  I know for a fact, this past weekend, I have sat way toooo long at the computer.  Guess what ?!?!?  I have no pain in my back, neck or shoulders!!!  The most I could sit for was 20 to 30 minutes and that was it. 

I don't know when I can start exercising again.  I see my surgeon tomorrow.  But, I'm sure once my drains are out and stitches around my nipples, I can return to regular activities.  I can tell a HUGE difference when I do excercise.  Just walking is all you really need to do.  But, I like going to the gym.  Where I go, it isn't very expensive.  I can do the machines and feel so much better! 

I am going to start eating better meals.  I have been eating comfort foods.  I can tell that it has really bloated me and I really feel awful.  Sleepy, etc. 

1.  Drink more water!  I can drink a 32 ounce Coke Zero.  I can drink that much water!
2.  If I can, start back slowly into exercising.  I am under restrictions right now. 
3.  Not sit as long at the computer, before I get into a bad habit !!

This is where I got started with A Hippo With A HeadBand. 

Have a great week !!
