Weigh in Wednesday

Ok. I tracked everysingle day. Errrrry day. 

For this. 

Up .6 


You like my socks. I know you do. Ain't no one got time for matching socks. 

To be honest I'm pissed. I worked my ass off this week. I didn't touch my extra 49 points OR my 18 points of activity! 18!!!!!!! 

But I know I'm doing this right and I had a big lose last week. So I'm hoping it will even out. 

But I'm not stoping at all. It's a small set back. Did I mention I rocked an hour of Zumba today?! Ugh. Anyways. I got this. 

This Special K is 3 pts for 3/4 a cup. Say what? Uh no. That's not filling for me at all. Hey girlfriend! (My awesome cup)


This Jennie o turkey bacon was fantastic!! I found it at Target. 


Lunch!! Yum!!

So here go. Another week. And I'm stepping up my game again. 

Bring on the sweat.

Accountability.

You may remember my post HERE about continually falling off the bandwagon. More then once. Hell more then twice....you get the idea. 



I'm continually asking myself how much do I allow of this? I don't allow it in other areas of my life at all. So why would I do this to myself. To my actual body? The body that's birthed two children and has lots and lots of life left. Why treat it so terribly. Makes you wonder why it just doesn't connect some days. 


But last night I got on the scale before going to Weight Watchers...well I almost passed out and instantly wanted to cry. For real. It was devastating. But, All the work I HAD put in out the window over what? Errrrr maybe a gallon of sangria? But really? Was it worth that instant feeling? Uh no. I could have had just as good of time without the gallon plus bottles of wine. Unless I wanna discuss this same conversation over and over again for the next 5 years. It stops here. Enough of abusing my body. Enough of putting everyone else first. Mommy guilt is one hell of a thing. But the guilt of leaving my amazing husband alone with our kids is far far worse. Yes that's extreme. But is it? 



So shits getting real. Wednesday will now be a weekly post of Weigh in Wednesday.   Which means your getting the real numbers. So if I gained 15 lbs you will know. If I lose 15 lbs you will know. 

So here's were we are starting. 
228.4 was my official weigh in last night. I didn't take a pic. 

But here's this am weigh in. 


I also promise to paint my toes in an attempt to look a little better. 

After today I'll attempt to get a Wednesday morning pic with my actual weigh in weight at night. 

So after I weighed myself I  bitched to my husband who might I add just got done running on the treadmill. Suck up. So I promptly got dressed walked down to it and pushed out a mile. In 16 mins. With walking and running. It's been MONTHS since I've done any exercise so this big girl took it nice and slow. Ugh


You've been warned. I'm going to whine. Bitch. And hopefully inspire others. I'm sharing so I can be accountable to everyone. No excuses. Enough "I'll start tomorrow". It starts now. Or it started when I stepped on the scale last night. 

Game on. I'm coming for you.

Decorating!!!

All the Christmas stuff is done. Wellllllll expect the porch. Oops! I'll get to it tomorrow. Anyways. I assume the next decorating holiday is Valentines day. I really don't have much and normally just do my mantle. Which is one of my favorite things in the house. We love the look of the stone. I've used this window for a while now. And just change it around during the holidays or seasons! It's so versatile! Oh and yes that's a moose or elk antler. Meh whichever! We love alllll antlers around here! Anyways, the owl is from Home goods, small jar beside it is from Marshall's, the fabulous candlesticks are from a yard sale, the tile is vintage and very old, wreath from Joanne's, the apothecary jar is from a company no longer in business and my favorite piece beside the window is a old porch thing ( I mean uh what is that even called?) support? Google is telling me it's called a "porch corbel"....from my husbands great grandparents families house. I would love 10 more. Such a great piece! Sign is from a little craft store and the "smith" burlap banner was a gift! Burlap is the bees knees. 


                        


After tackling that I moved to the staircase which to be honest has been pretty empty for uh shamefully 6 years. This will be a work in progress and collecting random eclectic items. I really like old unique things. None of those items are old. But it's a nice starting point. We need to re paint soon so I will have to take it down before I get too far but now I have some ideas. Thank you Pinterest! I would like some color or gasp.....chevron!?!



                          


I still have tons to do. This is house is a continuing canvas. I would like decorative blinds in our living room at some point. Any recommendations? 

Do you decorate for Holidays? It drives my hubs crazy! Lol! But he never says a word, other then, That looks wonderful. I love that man. 

Also, since I'm looking for inspiration I've been pinning like crazy! Click on my Pinterest link to follow me!   Um....don't judge me. Yes it says 10.5k pins. I've been on Pinterest before it was cool.
