My Lowest Weight

Good Morning people.  How did you guys sleep?  Any of you stay up to watch the Royal Wedding?  I did.  But while they were waiting for the Kiss I fell asleep.  I like that I feel healthy enough that I can't stay up too late anymore.  But I got to watch the beginning until they all went into the Palace.  Anyway, I weighed myself this morning and I was exactly 264.  I wanted to share the happy news!


 Also, the other day I made a Tofu Veggie Pizza.  I forgot to share the pictures with you.  Here they are.  Starting with none cooked-to cooked.  I used a spelt dough that I bought at Life Source.  I then added Classic guacamole to it before eating.  It was delicious and I can't wait to make more.

 Look how high it is.

Selling My Clothes

I am trying to sell some of my clothes that are too big for me.  So if anyone knows of someone who needs plus size clothes just connect them with pluzsizeclothes.blogspot.com I already have one thing on there and there will be more to come. Thanks.

Root Beer Icrecream

I need to blog this before it starts piling up and I forget to do.

Hello folks. Today was an interesting day...I didn't get any sleep last night and I had to work at 2am.  5am hit and I had no energy. I have been known to do this sometimes and I muddle trough it.  But seriously, I could have fallen asleep on the counter if I was allowed to.  It gets harder as I get older... Of course this lack of sleep brought me to this...COFFEE.

If you buy one of these at Starbucks you can get refills for 50cents as long as your in the store.  How sweet is that?  I was gonna get two more but only ended up getting one more.  It was great.  So then I slept from 1:30 - 7.  Now I am awake and i had a craving for icecream.  I decided to make some homemade stuff.  It was delicious.  I used Root beer Stevia.  I barely tasted the root beer though.  I think next time I won't add that much real sugar but more stevia.  I will have to experiment a bit on this one.

Another great thing today.  After work I went o a friends house.  She says she has some 20 size clothes I should try on.  So I go there and she has a whole tub and she just gives it to me.   So I try it on and I can wear alot of that stuff.  I'm thinking I need to lose another 20lbs or so before I can fit into it the pants.  I found some sweat pants and shorts I could wear.  And also a jean skirt I can squeeze into.  YAY for  friends who have already lost weight!  There are some very comfy cameo knee shorts that I am wearing right now and I don't think I will ever take them off, they are so comfortable.

HAPPY EASTER!

Hello,
I have been using vitamins that have been making me feel good.  I ran out about a month ago and they are kind of expensive.  I was finally able to go back and get them 3 days ago.  Boy!  I feel great.  More energy and just all around happy!  These are all the Vitamins I take during the day.  The new ones I believe make me feel the best is the Thyroid.  It's mainly seaweed etc.

So, Today is Easter.  What a rejoicing thing.  The Lord Jesus rose from the grave to give us a future and hope.  He made a way for us.  Thanks Jesus for sacrificing yourself.

I took this picture as an encouragement for me.  I have to keep believing that I am strong and I can fight and strive until the end.  I hope it encourages you too.  It's a word on our living room wall.

I believe I already told you I made this new recipe.  With grits and healthy stuff.  I took a picture of the ingredients. I again had it this morning with some Spelt bread and honey and almond butter.  I think I am addicted.

Since putting more superfoods into my diet I have been feeling better as a whole.  My weight has not been jumping up and down so much.  It's about .2lb lighter each day.  I haven't been working out though.  I have been kinda exhausted.  I have a walking buddy though and I have been doing that twice a week.  I am doing that tomorrow.  I might have found someone who can lend me size 20 clothes.  Most of my clothes are too small.  Today I wore a skirt that I won't be able to again.  I had to pin the side or I would have had to keep pulling it up during the feast.  So now I must go to bed.  The morning starts at 1:30am for me.  Catch ya later.

ONE MORE THING!

At the Easter Feast today they had ham and corn and baked potato.  I ate everything.  Wasn't too sure about the ham but I ate it anyway.  And then for dessert there was chocolate cake.  I decided to be bad....I took one bite and almost spit it out.  I couldn't stand the taste.  YAY!  That makes me happy when my body doesn't want.  It seemed so fake to me.  Normally I eat the cake and want more.  This pic was taken on my cell.

Feeling Better

I have been meaning to update for a while now...sorry.  I realized I was having a really hard time saying no to junk.  I kept giving in.  Two days ago I made my smoothie with Chocolate Almond milk, bananas, melted Coconut, and a tiny bit of spirulina.  I felt so rejuvenated!!  And then the scale was nicer to me in the morning as well.  Plus, I have been having a green drink every day again.  Yesterday I finally went back to Life Source and bought my Thyroid pills and pomegranate pills.  I felt so good this morning!!  I lost two pounds and only walked about 1/2 hr yesterday.  When I was at the store I picked up some spirulina pills. It's hard to find recipes to put it in  so I decided to look for pills and tada!!  I got some.  And now I feel so much better and my junk cravings are gone!  This morning I made this delicious thing... Grits with Chocolate powder and Yacon Powder for taste. Then I had spelt bread with raw honey and almond butter.  It was to die for.  And you can see my healthy pills there too.

Week 15

Yes, I discovered that it's week 15 of my progressive weight loss.  This last week was Horrible!!!  I do say Horrible.  I didn't have one green drink or even work out any day.  That is horrible.  I felt horrible.  But today is Friday and I made a green drink...I sure did.  I have no work today and I am babysitting some wonderful kids and actually have time.  I brought my stuff with me cause Sherah already has a vita-mix, yay!  Or I might not have even done it.
  Spring is here...Like the picture I took on the left?  It was taken a few weeks ago.   
So the picture below is me making green drinks...I already drank a bunch and I am still working on it!

It's more purple than green. lol
Here's to a successful week coming up!

Trying to Win Something

I have a friend who I get lots of tips from.  She has pretty much helped me to eat better and she is currently having a contest.  So I am to post this picture.

Check out her site!!

Success!

Alright people, I realized that the camera weighs something when I hold it and get on the scale so I would use my phone.  I would weigh myself, forget to take a picture then go back with the phone and I was up .2 points.  Realized that was the phone too...oops.  Anyway, I took the picture after with my real camera. This is my weight this morning.  You're just gonna have to trust me even though you don't see me standing on it.

That means I lost 3.2lbs this last week

After Not Weighing

Thursday (3-31)
So like I said I wasn't gonna weigh myself for 5 days, and I didn't.  It was hard.  I wanted to but didn't.  I weighed myself Thursday morning and the scale read 270.8.  Right were I wanted to be.  I am trying to lose 10 pounds a month so I am at my goal weight but the end of the year.  February didn't end right so I lost enough in March to make up for it.  I am sure that will happen again.  But I am glad for my success.  The next day(Fri) I was exactly the same...kinda weird.  
Today - 
So I started to write that and then the computer only wanted to type n's so I turned it off and forgot to finish.  You may have wondered where I went.  Well here's what happened.  Turns out I had whole nuther week with early shifts.  3am to be exact.  So there is no way I can weigh myself.  So I get to weigh tomorrow after a whole week.  Sunday I was 270.2.  It will be interesting to see how I weigh out.  I didn't do the greatest.  I actually ate some candy bars.  I was craving chocolate so much.  I haven't had any since I started before January.  Hopefully I can fight against it the next time it wants to bombard me.  So anyway, I wanted to share a picture of a delicious salad I made.  I am told by many people that my salads always look so good cause I add tons of things to them.

Summer is coming and I am so excited for that.  My flab hangs down everywhere, I wish I could just shave it off or something.  It's funny that I totally notice it now.  My arms, my legs, even my butt.  I had a big butt, not a flabby one.  I think I lost inches on my butt and chest.  I have to make my bras as small as possible now.  And I have no jeans that fit.  I went into my room mates clothes she had before she lost weight and they only went up to 18.  I tried on a jean skirt and couldn't get the button closed.  Guess I have to keep looking sloppy until I lose about 20 more pounds...Laters.
