Chilly weather Sunday......

 


Well it's Sunday evening and it's quite chilly outside. I think the temps topped out around 50 today. I know winter is coming and I am so not ready. I need to get the furnace cleaned out and get a new filter so it's ready to go. We haven't turned it on yet, even though the temps have gotten down to 35 outside. Can you say brrrrrr?!?!

Had dinner at mom and dads. He fixed London broil on the grill and it was amazing! πŸ„We don't eat red meat unless we are over there. No reason why, I just don't buy it. I made a double layer chocolate cake and it was delish. My dad LOVES chocolate cake πŸ˜„

I lost 3.8 lbs. on WW this week. That makes a total 45.6 since July 18, 2020. My hope is to lose 25 more lbs. by Christmas πŸŽ„. That's 9 weeks away. I may be asking for too much, but I am sure going give it one hell of a try. I can do this!!! 

So long for now ✋

Quiet Saturday evening...........

 

Happy Saturday my friends. It's been a chilly day. It got down to 30 degrees last night. I didn't turn the furnace on yet. I'm not quite ready to give in to that yet. When I got up at 7am, it was 64 degrees in the house which is cold but not too bad. I slept with my "winter" comforter last night. It's so freaking warm. My orange kitty thinks so too. He slept under the covers with me, in the crook of my arm all stretched out and toasty warm.  He is my little love πŸ’–

I weighed in today. I lost 1 lb. which is not bad. I know, I can't lose 3-4 lbs. a week (as much as I would like to). My next goal is 26 lbs. away. I'm really hoping I can lose it by Christmas. That's 10 weeks away and if I work hard, I KNOW I can do it. 

Last thing, I promise. My dog πŸ• is being a big douche. He wouldn't come in tonight because he knew it was bedtime. He damn near bit me. He lives such a good life and I'm not sure what his problem is. We have this theory. We think he is inbred. He has some serious aggression and it's scary. I have just about had my fill. I have NEVER been the type that would get rid of a pet, but we don't feel safe around him. We're also afraid he will hurt one of our cats. Sigh........I'm just not sure what is going to happen. 

Time to go watch a movie. Have a great rest of the weekend.

Sunday evening...........

 


Well it's Sunday evening already. This weekend went super fast. I'm really tired this evening and have an awful headache. I think it's mostly stress because it goes down the back of my head into my neck and upper back. 

The election is in a little over three weeks and I am SO ready for it to be over. So much bickering back and forth. That's all you see/hear on the news not to mention the number of flyers coming in the mail and the emails. It's getting ridiculous. 

Weighed in and I lost 4 lbs. this week, making a total of 40.6 lbs. so far. I have a long way to go but I'm off to a great start. Some days are harder than others. All of the good (but really bad) things we use to eat, we just can't have anymore. Being on WW makes us think before we eat. Things we use to just grab before are now a big NO. It kind of sucks but it really makes us realize how bad we were eating and why the weight just piled on.

Nothing too exciting this week. I know, my life is boring. I do think I will get back into scrapbooking and writing again. If/when I do, I will share some of my work.

Have a great week .......

Rainy Sunday

 


Happy Sunday. It's October 4 and a rainy Sunday. Not much going on. Cleaned the dining room yesterday and mopped floors. I really need to some purging. I have SO much stuff, some that needs to go. I need to pick up some totes next weekend to store things in. I have a big hutch in the dining room and I think I may sand and refinish it. I think it could be really pretty if it's redone. 

Only lost .2 lbs on WW last week. Honestly, I'm not sure how I ONLY lost .2 lbs.  I had a great week with my eating and drank at least 100 oz. of water each day. I'm kind of upset but it is what it is. It just gives me the motivation to work harder and eat less. The thing is, on WW you have a number of points that you can eat each day in addition to free items. I rarely go over my p0ints and even if I do, we have an extra allotment of points that we can dip into weekly. I just to need to let it go. Today started a new week for WW so I'm back at it. 

Have a great week everyone
