busy....busy

I meant to post the other day but I have been crazy busy!! I did go to WW Thursday, lost another 1.6 lbs. Not bad considering that I went to this FAB dinner party with Ricky Tuesday. (it was this AWESOME $300 a plate dinner that we were invited to by his grandpa, so we couldn't *not* go. Plus it was sooo fun!!) Anyhow.. I kinda blew my points that day but it was soooo worth it. :)

Then... I made a promise to myself to lose another 2lbs this week and workout everday. Well... Saturay morning Marley woke up with a horrid fever, and her lips were blue. We took her to the ER and have been in the hospital ever since. You can read all about it on my family blog... http://whitneymccoy.typepad.com/ricknwhit_and_crew/

Needless to say it's been hard to figure out my points eating hospital food. I think I'm on track... but I really can't be sure. And working out... well... kinda hard to do in a little hospital room in the ICU. But.. we're hopefully getting outta here tomorrow so I can get a few good workouts in before WW again on Thursday. Oh ya... I'm also going skiing Wed so that'll burn a whole BUNCH of calories. ;-)

Update!!

I went to WW on Thursday... ropped my sister-in-law to go with me.. ;-) According to their scale I had lost 3lbs my first week.. but my scale said 5lbs. I'm going with my scale since the meetings are at 5pm... and we all know the AM nakie weight is the most accurate... hee hee ;-) SO......as of this morning I was down 6lbs!! It probably would have been more but I went to a party Fri night and then another mini shindig Sat.. so I kinda blew my points those days I fear. :( BUT.. I got a Tae Bo DVD from my sister-in-law so... me and Billy Blanks have a date today. ;-) He and water are gonna help get my butt in gear. :D

Weight Watchers...

Last night I went to my first WW meeting. It was great! And the WW scale said I'm 2lbs less than my scale at home. (But for sake of the contest... I'll stick with what my home scale says. ;)

So.... I had my first day with points. It's going really well. I get bonus points since I'm nursing too. WooHoo! It's 5pm, and I'm not even hungry and I still have 15 points left for dinner!! Yay, so excited. I'm gonna have pizza. delish!

I'm also almost done with my first liter of water for the day. (yes.. I realize the day is almost over.... I slaked on the liquid intake today.) I also went run/walking for about 30 mins today. Cohen went with me, so it was more walking than running, but.. I figured out that I am uberly outta shape, so... it wasn't all that bad.. LOL. Plus, by having Cohen with me... I figure when people saw me walking they assumed it was because I was letting my 4.5 year old catch up to me. haha

Anyhow..... it's going good... but tough. It's my first day on points so I'm still trying to gage my hunger vs points and whatnot. I have quite a few points leftover for dinner, so I think I can snack more during the day tomorrow. It's a trial an error system I think. ;-)

my new best friends...

Meet my two new bffs.

Water and I have had some good times. Sometimes he jazzes himself up with lemon and or lime... and other times... he goes au naturale. ;-) kinky... hee hee. It's been awhile since we've really hung out, but I'm happy to say we've gotten back together. Today he's on my desk... always there when I need him. :-) No matter how long I've neglected him.. he's always willing to give me another try. Love ya water!!

And my new bff!! Ahhh.. Sobe Green Tea... we go waaayyy back. My first choice for long car rides. He's the mistress to my Water. When I'm craving a little *something more*.. Mr Sobe delivers. Alas... he was too many points for my new WW endevour. It was looking like the end to a fab affair.... *sigh* But wait!!! Just when I thought it was over.. Mr Sobe pulled me back in with his lighter version.. Mr Sobe Lean Green Tea. AND.. the best part... Mr Lean is 0 points on WW!!!!

and so, the affair continues.... hee hee. Just don't tell Water.. he'd be crushed. ;-)

BeFoRe PiCs!

YiKeS!! Scary pics!! But soon to be no more. I was stalking Tammy's blog today and saw she had a cute little "before" collage. So, I decided to do one to. :-)

As you can see... the tummy and but region need major help. As do the thighs. The can be close but... they no need to be touchy anymore.

I'm gonna do a pic each month... just to show my progress. Sooo excited!!!

Today is the DAY!!!!

WooHoo!!! My BL 2009 started today! I weighed myself... (and then wanted to throw up.. hahha but I didn't! That would be cheating...lol)

So... here are my scary numbers. My scale is busted, and I'm getting a new one this week. So you gt two pics. One so that you can see my scale doesn't rest to 0lbs, but instead sets to 5lbs. And the other so you can see my scary weight! (minus 5lbs of course.. ;-)

My goal is to lose 40lbs. Here's hoping!!! I'm joining WW Thursday (that's the meeting day), and am really pumped.

Wanna Join me??!!

I had a few requests from girls wanting to join the BL 2009 group that I joined, so I thought I'd post the link to the group blog. You can just leave a comment to sign up, and tell them I sent ya. ;-) Also... it's $50 to join in. You have to have your money in by Monday!
