Sunday

It's been a quiet day on here apparently! I am working today. Not usually available on Sundays anymore, but they needed the help. I'm on lunch right now, though.

Thursday morning, I got on the scale and it read 170. I wanted to cry. That made 25 lb gained back since February. Enough is enough. I did not work so hard to give up. I am going to get back down to 145 (my goal)!!! Maggie would want me to do that.

Yesterday I had a nice day with Mikey. We went to a book sale at St. Mary-of-the-Woods, the mall, and bowling. It was good to spend some mom-son time together.

Maggie's 6th birthday is coming up on August 22nd. We decided to recognize it by going to dinner with the family. I can't believe that will mark exactly six months since she died.

 

Linda, I know that you will be able to get things turned around and get those pounds off. You are one tough cookie (pardon the pun) and you have an angel working right along side of you.

Dinner with your family sounds like a great idea for Maggie's birthday. Have you ever considered buying some pink helium balloons and having everyone write Maggie a note/letter and sending them up to heaven? It's a great emotional release. We've done it for my sister through the years, and she passed away 28 years ago. I always helped me feel better to say what was on my mind.

A mom-son day always revives me! I love spending one on one time with my kiddos! Take care and let me know if there is anything I can do for you!

Linda
Honey you have been thru so much.
I havent gained but im not losing either so its time to step up my game i was told to keep a journal and my feelings at the time i was eating.
You can do it
I love my time with the boys and we have fun together but the one on one time is so special to me.
I think that is a great to celebrate Maggies bday all her fav people together for her.
Huggs sweetie

Linda I'm sure that your little Maggie will hold your hand as you get back down to your goal. I can't even begin to imagine the pain you feel and I think of you often.

Not much going on around here today. I went to the Brad Paisley concert last night and that was def too much for me right now. The bass felt like it was gonna bump my staples out and I was just too sore to sit or stand like that for that long. It was a great show though.

Hope everyone had fun at the campout over the weekend.
