When is school over again?

Sigh... i'm soooo tired school and being sick is draining me... But this week i am excited because i get to teach my first lesson plans in science. I only lost a pound though but i ate chocolate cake yesterday (i gave in) so what are you to expect right? 1 pound is nothing to be sad about bc its 34 total.. and thats what i keep looking at the total amount i have lost not what i loose each week.. and that gets me by.

Sorry i still dont have my photos up just yet... i've been soo very busy that frankly i just dont have the time to sit down and spend the time up loading my photos... though...i've started to notice a difference in my upper waiste area...but my stomach i wish would start to go away... i've not been able to exercise due to my last cold and frankly i weighed too much to really do very much with myself...so i look forward to getting back into shape over the next weeks.... actually just getting some exercise would be nice... i'll use it as my self time to get away from the stress of it all...

anyways... have a good week everyone...

Ahhh sweet rewards

I did it... sick and all

I hit my 10% goal this morning.. so totally makes me feeling like crap worth it. I'm now working towards my 20% which wont take long i am sure! so since november 6th i've lost 32 pounds. I've taken some pictures of the some what new me but i've not had the opportunity to download them to my computer yet.. as soon as i can though i will post them. you'll have to let me know if you see a change its still hard for me.

In other news I went to the doctors today b/c i just cant take this cold anymore. its been about 4 weeks now and about two weeks ago i thought i was getting better but then i was hit by another cold. So i went to the doctor thinking that i just had the flu or close to it b/c i have had the flu shot. (but that means nothing) and i find out that he thinks i might have whooping cough. Now i know i was given a shot for that when i was a kid so who would think i could still get it but apparently i can. I took a nasty test with a swab down my nose to see if i do have it but they wont know for several days. until then i am on antibiotics and bed rest with a some what quarantine status. sigh.

anyways... i'll up date you as i can.. seeing as i am going to be home this week now.

Weigh In

So i was close today... i lost 2 more pounds for a total of 28... but it just wasnt enough. I must have been off in my calculations bc to reach my 10% goal i would have had to loose 2.5 so i was close but not close enough. so one more week and then i know for sure that i will be at my 10% goal. but as far as it goes, i am very please and more so because i calculated my BMI and it's improved so much !!! i was 42 and now i am 38 so thats not so shabby and to loose 28 pounds since november 7th which makes it 3 month.. not bad eh? i'm averaging 2 pounds a week... cant go wrong with that!

so i'm in my practicum right now.. one of two (this is my small one) i'm so excited! the kids i work with are great! i'm loving it! but oh the stress lol.

Oh and i am soo thrilled bc my local costco has come out with some weight watchers food and i bought this blue berry cereal which looks like a mix of rice chrispy and frosted flakes its yummy! and its only 2 pts per cup so thats just the right amount for me and breakfest bc i am so not a breaky person.

so ya i'll try and check in later this week and post an update of how my new life is going...
