It's been over 2 weeks.....

and I'm stuck at a 4 lb. weight loss. Ugh. It's getting really frustrating! I'm not losing anymore and, I'm not enjoying all the bad things! I'm going to finish out this week and see where I'm at. I may need to review my diet and see what else is out there, that is reasonable for me.

That's all I'm posting for now....

Baby, it's cold outside!!!

And it's only getting colder!!! It took me an hour and a half to get to work this morning, due to snow!!! Today, the high is supposed to be 23, which isn't all too bad but, tomorrow, they're saying a high of 6 degrees! 6 DEGREES!!!!!! Ridiculous! And the low for Friday, -7.

Anyway, all of a sudden, I've got energy!!! I think that it's because of the diet that I'm on. It's been 9 days (4 lbs. lost) and my cravings have gone down, energy has gone up. Which is fantastic! I actually feel like scrapbooking again! I feel like I have the energy to do stuff around the house and still find time to do what I want to do!!! It really has been great!

Just needed to add....

These cravings SUCK!!!! I feel like I'm going through withdrawals (like when I quit smoking). I so badly want some potato chips, and I'm not even normally a chip eater!!! I will get through this.

Day 2...

of Atkins! Ugh! It's been rough but, I am determined to do this. I am determined to NOT go up a size. Everything I own is tight and I just can't stand it anymore! So, no carbs. For 2 weeks. At least, very low carbs. And, anybody that knows me, knows that I LOVE carbs! Potatoes, noodles, chocolate....I just know that these are my absolute downfall. So, I'm half way through day 2, hoping that day 3 is better. Wish me luck.

HAPPY 2009!!!

So, New Year's Resolutions...hmmm. I haven't thought much about it. Of course, the standards, lose weight, get fit, organize, so on and so on are at the top of my list. Really, I just want to stay on top of things this year. Bills, kids' school stuff, work, scrapbooking, BLOGGING, etc. I hope to get out of this house, out of Indy, by the end of this year. I hope to be back home, being a Mom, by the end of this year. I hope to find more time to "treat myself" every now and then, even if it's an hour here or there. So, I guess that I have lots of resolutions. Let's just hope for the best and hope for a wonderful year!!!!!!!

So anyway, HAPPY NEW YEAR to all!!!
