Another WeightWatcher update!

Okay ladies and gentlemen! I went to my Weight Watcher meeting today, because I worked on wednesday. Anyway, I lost another 1.2 pounds! That makes a total of 21.2 pounds lost!!!! I weighed in at 208.8!!! I am totally stoked!
On another note, Sydney's nurse said that Sydney fell out of her bed today. Her right wrist is bruised. Here is my problem with this story. Anyone who knows Sydney knows that she doesn't move on her own. How the hell did she just fall out of bed? I think she was dropped personally.
Anyway, I am off to bed because I have to be at work at 5AM. Nighty night!

WW on Wednesday 3/25

Okay, here it is. I didn't get to log in last week because our internet was down, but my weight stayed the same as it did the week before. So when I went to weigh in on the 25th, I didn't actually expect to lose any, because I haven't been tracking my points and I've been snacking a lot. But I did it!!!!!! I weighed in at 210 pounds. I lost 20 pounds!!!! I never thought I would be able to do it. It feels great to be 20 pounds lighter. Also, I lost 2 pant sizes. I have gone from a size 24-26 to a size 20 pant.
Here is last months picture: (215 pounds)

And here is this weeks picture: (210 pounds)

On to Sydney......
We had her appointment with the Endocrinologist. Sydney is going next week to have a test run to make sure she is in puberty. The doctor says that once they develop breasts, then a menses will start about a year and a half later. Well, she has had breast development for over a year. So, the doctor said she will either do an implant in her arm once per year, or she will have to get monthly injections of Lupron, both of which will postpone puberty until she is around 10 or 11 years old. Then the doctor said we will discuss what options are good for Sydney there after. So I will update after that appointment. The doctor also ordered a bone age scan for Sydney.
Emily is doing great. She has become quite the talker. Better late than never, right? She still doesn't eat much, but she has a cousin who is really petite also. So maybe it is something genetic. She definitely didn't get it from my side of the family. I say that because no one on my side is petite, short maybe but definitely not underweight. I am short, but I don't think Emily is short, just underweight for her age.
Anyway, I am off to work. I will update later!

Forgot to update

About my last WW meeting. I ate like a cow and figured that I would have gained weight, but lo and behold, I was down another pound. That makes a total of 18 pounds lost! I feel like at tomorrow's meeting that I am going to have gained though. I have really slacked off about keeping up with the points. I hope not.
On a sadder note, my niece (Andrea) is mourning the loss of her grandfather, Frank Strokos, who has been battling cancer for about a year. My deepest sympathies are with her and her father as they go through this most difficult time.
Tomorrow, besides my WW meeting, Sydney has an appointment with an Endocrinologist. We are fearing that she is getting ready to have her first menstruation soon, and this is shocking because she will only be 9 in August. So, hopefully they will tell us otherwise. Anyway, I will update tomorrow about that and my WW meeting!

OH MY GOSH! (WW update)

I ate like a friggin cow this past week. At my Weight Watcher meeting yesterday, I was totally expecting to have put on like 3 pounds. And much to my surprise.....I lost weight again! I weighed 212.4 pounds! Thats a total loss of 17.6 pounds!!!!! WOOHOO!
So Ronnie and I were talking about our trying to concieve journey. I have lost my full time benefits at work and the part time ones are crap. So Ronnie and I decided that the responsible thing to do would be to put our tring to concieve journey on hold until April 1, 2010 when hopefully my full time benefits will kick back in. And hopefully our failing economy will be in a better place! So until then, I am going to lose weight. I don't know if I have posted my goal weight. It is for now, 132 pounds, which according to WW would make me height/weight proportionate. So I am down 17.6 pounds and I have 80.4 pounds to go! YAY! Well bye for now, I am going to eat breakfast and head to work!

Well...(and a weight watcher update)

Okay, so I am not pregnant this cycle, my temps started dropping and I am cramping and spotting. And as of April 1, I will have no insurance. So, we are going to quit trying until next April when I will get my insurance back (hopefully). Anyway, I had a weight watcher meeting again and I lost another 1.2 pounds! I now weigh 213.4 pounds! That is down a total of 16.6 pounds! I am so excited. I have slipped a little this week and now I have to get back on track! But that will be easy. Anyway, I will update more on Wednesday!

Another meeting come and gone

And I lost another pound! That is a total of 12 pounds! I feel great and really can't wait to go back each week to weigh in. Sydney has a neurologist appointment this wednesday so I may not go this week. So anyway, I will post a new picture next week to compare to my starting picture! Hope I get a good one!
