what was I thinkin'?

Yesterday after taking the kids to school I met a friend of mine for a nice walk . This is a routine that we will be doing every monday , wednesday and friday from now on . We had a wonderful walk and I was feeling good by the time we returned to our vehicles . We stood and talked for a few minutes then headed on out , I thought I would go ahead and go weigh in but I was very thirsty so I stopped and bought a 33 oz bottle of water . Before I knew it I had the whole bottle down and I could have used more water ....thank God I didn't stop for more ... anyways, I went over to the center to weigh in . I didn't have time to sit down when they called my name and when I stepped on the scales , I wanted to scream . The scales said that I had gained 7oz! I was not happy about this because I have followed my diet to a T and I have been exercising like crazy too . My consultant told me it was the water that had made the scales go up . I told her that I knew I had lost weight because I can feel it , she laughed and told me not worry because I would have something to smile about come wednesdays weigh in . I can't believe that I was so air headed to do something like that . However , my consultant did lift my spirits a bit when I told her that I had ate beef on friday . I am supposed to eat red meat once a week to challenge my body to break it down . Even though I am allowed to have beef 5 times a week they tell you just to watch it because it takes your system 3-5 days to break it down therefore if you eat beef on friday then weigh in on monday , it is going to look like you didn't loose that much . My consultant told me that I would be surprised when I step on the scales on wednesday because most who eat beef then drink the water like I did , would show alot more than 7oz . So , I have done my stupid thing for the week ! hehe!

I will celebrate my 31st birthday on April 29th and I am excited because two days after that , on May 1st , Mr. Breazy and I will celebrate our 13th wedding anniversary and we are going to go away for the weekend . I know I will miss the kids while I am gone but at the same time I will be pleased to get away and have some peace . Isn't it funny how we beg for a night of peace but once our wish is granted , we miss the kids ? I might miss them but it will not keep me from going ! My 14 yr old daughter is in the process of choosing her path in high school . I told her that this is an important time in her life because the choices she makes now could smooth or make the road ahead rough.

I am so ready for spring to get on in here and starting today we are going to hit a warming trend that is supposed to pretty much stick around . It is supposed to be 74 here on thursday and I can't wait ! Before I go I want to tell you all that I really appreciate your upbeat supportive comments on my weigh loss . I believe that when a person decides to loose weight that support is the biggest help of all and you all have been wonderful and I am very blessed to have all of you as friends . HUGS to all of you ! Have a beautiful day ! :)

It will work itself out on Wednesday - but I understand exactly how you feel. I'm on a 'life-style' change - because it needs to be for good. This up and down is so frustrating.

If you want an online dieting support buddie - I'm here for ya!!

all the hard work is gonna pay off even if it is a painstakingly slow process. Keep at it gal...you CAN do this! When I get a night otu I generally spend the first little bit talking about the kids...they have a way of sneaking into the conversation!

WOW your site looks fantastic, when did you do that? I should come by more. I wanted to reply to what you said on mine. As far as I know MK has removed the chemicals, I am a consultant and I have read the ingredients. So if you do switch I would go with MK, but you know that is me and I love the stuff.
