We took Vincent on his first fishing trip on Mothers Day. Yes, I hate fishing...but it was Mother's Day and they begged me to go with...so I took my brand new book, Does the Noise in My Head Bother You BY STEVEN TYLER :) and read while they fished...oh and took pix of the fish. I was good for something...definitely not worms, or fish, or .... Frogs? LOL :)

progress

wow...that last post was so long, even i got bored. ;)

I had some more big goals too...didn't I? I need to stop that shit! lol

middle of may...im down 10 pounds. I have kind of lightened up a little and have been slacking on the exercise (again) but I still do more than I did at the beginning of this year, and in my defense, it HAS been raining a lot. lol Usually, i would do a workout routine at lunch, but lately (past 3 wks) I have been doing more walking than anything. I still take the steps everywhere I go. I just need to keep up what i AM doing and add in some lunch workouts.

I still eat lots and lots of salad...so much that Alex says i'm like a rabbit! lol I need to drink less tea and more water. I definitely have not been eating as much crap. I find that I eat stuff like pretzels, popcorn, and apples w/ peanut butter. Although, we splurged and bought some licorice that was on sale, and i ended up eating almost the whole bag of cherry nibs..in like 2 or 3 days! :( that wss not good. but i havent done anything like that since. not even a candy bar. I'm back to it.

I haven't completely fallen off the wagon, but I haven't completely stayed on.

If I keep it up, I should be down close to 20 pounds by summer. Which would be good cuz then I can return the new bathing suit I bought and really don't like that much...cuz it will be too big! ;)

I am sticking to this. I wont give up. even if I have to read my own stupid long ass posts to remind myself how hard that first month was. I have come a long way. lol

Now if i could just write more? lol
