Random thoughts 02/10

In 01/08 I decided to change my diet. After Walter and I had our 2nd miscarriage, the doctors thought that it could have been due to my weight (then at 248 lbs). So at that point I went on a diet, well actually changed the entire way that I eat. Before I went on my "Vegas Vacation" I had lost 41 pounds (now it's more like 37) and I lost the weight by dieting alone. Of course I have been on a plateau for about 7 months now...possibly longer. But never gaining so that's good. But here lately I've decided that getting back to my regime would be best. I've started keeping track of my food intake on "myfitnesspal.com" and doing some exercise. I want to ease into it. I know that since Walter and I are trying to get pregnant again that I shouldn't really be "dieting", but it doesn't hurt to eat healthier (which is how I consider it). So my goal weight at first was 175 lbs. That means on another 36 lbs to go. But then I'm not pushing the issue too much. I'd streak my neighborhood if I got below 200....J/K!!



I've just started reading a new book series. It's called the "Black Dagger Brotherhood" series by J.R. Ward. It's pretty good, I do find it hard to put the books down, and they are about 400 pages each. Anyone who knows me, knows that I like the whole paranormal books...mostly to do with vampires. So I've just finished book #3 and cannot wait to start on #4, which I may do here shortly. I've also started reading another series by one of my favorite authors, Charlaine Harris. She writes the "Sookie Stackhouse" series (which I've read 4 times all the way through & of course it's about vampires) & I just recently picked up her "Harper Connelly" series (about a girl who can sense the dead). It is good, but not as good as the Stackhouse series, she's just an awesome writer. I'm reading so many different series right now that it's almost difficult to keep up. My mother-in-law has given me some books to read as well. So total there are about 10 books on my table.



Ok, now my booty is tired. Maybe the workout is just what I needed to make myself go to bed at a decent hour. Alright friends. I hope you all have a good night. Love ya!!
