WOW

It's been a super busy productive couple weeks and more to come I'm sure.  I FINALLY got all done Christmas shopping online tonight.  I have one item on ebay for Cole that I am bidding on and hope that I can win.  I finished up tonight with the boys and Keith and even got Cole a gift from Grandma picked out.  She always celebrates with us so she buys for the boys when she comes.  Not necessary, but she feels like she needs to, so I found a $15 board game Cole really wanted and ordered it for her for him.  Free shipping cause I spent a ton so that worked out nicely!  I am so happy! 

Well I am officially down 175 lbs.  I am ONE pound away from 180 every morning the last couple days, but it's that time of the month, so my weight loss always stalls for a few days then will take the BIG plunge and I might just lose down to 185 lbs... it happens that fast with me sometimes.  Last week I lost 3 lbs.  It was shocking since I've only been losing about a pound a week lately.  Not that I mind.  I am so close to my goal.  I know I will get there!  Here are my before and after photos, with my most recent shots...



Now the side shots... SHOCKING!!!!



I feel like a million bucks, most days... today I ate some subway and within a half hour I had the craps and my tummy hurt so bad.  Not sure if it was the lettuce or fresh veggies or what?  I just hurt bad for about 2 hours and then I was fine.  Weird. 

I made some amazing meat loaf tonight for supper.  It was pretty darned fabulous.  I also made baked sweet taters and some fresh pineapple.  It was pretty awesome.

My pampered chef party is on Thursday.  I hope I have a good turn out.  I just want my monthly special, it's what I'm making Bill buy me for Christmas!  The Deep Dish Baker.  I can't wait!  I want it so bad.  I'm making my home made spaghetti sauce tomorrow for the party, it's better if you make it, let it sit a day or two and then re heat it up, it has such wonderful flavor.  I am also making crusty french bread and some awesome dipping sauces for it.  Then I am having fresh veggies and a couple awesome Pampered Chef Dips.  I am making a dessert pizza for dessert too.  YUM YUM.  Can't wait.  Going to be a fun night of full bellies! 

I spent some time tonight getting Danny's Biggest Loser recap all typed up for him, and printing off the online recap.  I like to make up my own though, cause I like to comment on things that happen and we both like the same people and hate the same people so I know he LOVES my commentary!  ha ha.  I mailed him out The Help book today.  He should get it in a few days.  I hope he likes it.  I loved it.  Can't wait to see the movie.

I have been soooo behind on my DVR.  I just can't sit still to watch it.  I am needing a day of TV but can't sit here long enough to get that done.  I get started on something and then jump up and go off and get busy doing something else and just can't seem to get too interested in programs, even my favorites.  I had to delete some shows last night to clear up some space.  Tonight I have been skipping through all my Days of Our Lives ( I had 14 on here)  I am skipping over the boring parts and only watching the good interesting stuff.  I only have 5 left to see.  Yeah me!!  That's lots of skipping!!!

Well Bill's home.  Time for me to heat up his supper and go to bed.  I am pooped and 6 a.m. comes tooo darned early!
