1/2 Done

What could I possibly mean by 1/2 done?
Answer:  This week I managed to track my food about half of the time, we got half way done painting the trim work in the sun room, and I knitted 1/2 of a pair of socks.

The only thing I managed to do completely is exercise 30 minutes daily.

I am going to kick back and enjoy the Grange Fair this upcoming week.  Don't worry I'm going to stay focused and remember what I am working towards.

I recently dusted off my Weight Watcher Active Link now all I have to do is remember to wear it.  So my new goal for next week:
1. Use the Active Link. This should be fun to track because I will be able to see how many points I earn.
2. Walk at least 30 minutes Daily.  With the Fair and the Treadmill this is a breeze.
3. Journal my food.  If at first you don't succeed try try try again.

I'll have lots to share next week so till then be Happy.

Another Week

Another week has went by and I didn't even journal one bite of food that I ate last week.  What I did do


  1. Canned 3o pints of corn for the winter. (I'm a proud new owner of a pressure canner and can't wait to get stocking up on soups and other things I could not can before.)
  2. Helped my husband start to paint our sun room.
  3. Oh, we also went shopping to buy a new table for in the sun room and ended up buying a new sofa and 2 chairs.  (Now we want to paint our living room before the new furniture arrives.  I just have to put in on record that I hate painting and I'm not looking forward to doing it at all.  I will be sure to post before and after pictures for all to see as we go along.)


I did not go to Weight Watchers this week because I just can't face stepping on the scale and being up and feeling like a failure.  

On a good note I did get up this morning and walked on the treadmill for 30 minutes.  I am going to try to make this a daily event.  So I lead off into another week with ambitions to journal my food and walk at least 30 minutes daily on the treadmill.

Take 2

It sure has been a long time since I've last posted.  Well everything remains the same.  I'm still overweight and wanting to make a change.  Even movie stars don't always get it right on the first shoot so here it is my "Take 2".
This is it for me from here on out small changes to reach a smaller me.
My first goal is to journal all my food for a week.  So here I go and see you in a week with my next goal and first weigh in report.
