Random Thoughts

So I'm sitting here in my office trying to down my first official Body By Visuals shake. It's not very tasty but I may very well have mixed it wrong seeing as how I didn't follow any recipes I just threw some ice from Sonic, a hand full of blueberries, 2 scoops of shake and some almond Silk in the blender. Don't get me wrong, it's not the worse thing I've ever tasted it and I'm sure that once I get  used to it I'll love it - espeicailly if I see some results. It is true that it tastes like cake mix batter. A lot of the reviews I've seen view that is a good thing. I however and not so fond of cake mix batter that I can drink two cups of it a day and be happy about it. But of course, that's just me.

On to other things - my aunt Lill passed away Monday after a very brave fight with pancreatic cancer. She was (and still is) my favorite aunt. I'm going to miss her. I won't go into details, but what I've learned is to never ever not tell someone how much you care about them. Never vow, to never talk to anyone again. Always work out your differences and always let people know just how much you love them.

If you ever really love someone one, you never stop loving them.

Hey y'all!    I was finally able to get my grubby little paws on more Michaels Craft Store Grab Boxes.

I was most excited about the floral department stuff and the lights. The total for my boxes is over $400. Anything I can't use, I'll be donating to my job! 

BOOK REVIEW: "I Almost Forgot About You" by Terry McMillan

While I'm not a Terry McMillan fanatic, I do usually enjoy her books. This title was hard to read and confusing from the very beginning. I understand that Georgia is on a mission to find herself but the books is long and gets boring often. Plus there are way too many characters to keep up with. I will still pick up a Terry McMillan book in the future but I do not recommend this book.

Weight Loss Check In- Week 1 - Days 1 thru 7

Starting Weight: 290 according to the new scale. Target Weight: My initial target weight for the end of week one was 282 lbs. but that was when I thought I weighed 285. Current Weight: 287 Next Target Weight: 285 - kinda feels like I'll be 2 weeks behind. How Many To Lose: 2lbs. Hopefully I'll lose more. Overall Goal Weight: 175 Overall Need to Lose: 112 Good LORD! This week I started with meal replacement shakes. My will power was not strong! I was able to do the shakes 3 full days, meaning I had one for breakfast and one for lunch with a sensible dinner. I purchased both Slimfast and Atkins and have been having the Slimfast shakes for breakfast and the Atkins shakes for lunch. I would say that those are to credit for the 2 lb weight loss because I didn't exercise...at all - just tried to move around more. This upcoming week I am going to do the meal replacements Monday -Thursday and see how many pounds I lose. Even though the scale didn't move much I do h...
