HOWWWWWWW......DDDDDYYYYY!


There I sit. Looking at all the past blogs and wondering...who's reading this epistle today or tomorrow, for that matter! We've been out in the gorgeous weather, went to Wallyworld and finally got home!



So, here's the latest. I wore some cute white lattice kinda sandals
yesterday. By the time I got home, had to pitch them in the closet! I've lost fat between my toes and the thingy between my big toe and next toe was KILLING me!

All rings now fit the middle finger and if I'm not careful, they'll slide off into oblivion. Gotta some ring guards next week! And, I wore a neat pair of capri's today that almost slid off to the ground with every step. I walked and hitched and walked some more!

Thus, consigment shop, here I come next week! When things start falling off by themselves, it's time to move on. Well, except for my rings!

In that pic above, I was sitting looking at the puter, of course, wondering if an okish pic would come out. It's okaish to me...I had been out in the wind running around, but SHE'S GOT ENERGY EVERY DAY!!!

I just wanted to drop a line and check in with all. I'm with .1 of a pound going down to another new number. Come on .1!!! Place your bets, one and all!!

Have a great Sunday. Spend time with your fam and enjoy your worship service, where ever that may be tomorrow!!




Texas hugs from ME...the vanishing chick; the somewhat diminshed woman; the thinner patntxs gal; the shrinking finger lady; the I can't quit smiling Texan. I know, a little over the top! Do I care? You figure it out, k?

End of April -- Not the End of ME!!












Change is in the wind!!! There I 'is'!! Wanted you to see my very blue eyes that I have these days! Hmmmm, actually, lookin' kinda healthy, don'tcha thank??

Michael said these pics make me look larger than I am, actually! Pix with our digital cam are not always perfect. One day, gonna set my 35 mm outfit up and take some real pics with my real cam. Anyhow, I do look a far cry different from the very beginning, huh?

The two face shots were taken by moi...waiting for Michael to take the one outside. Anyhow, still -46, but beginning to go down again. I'm hoping to be -50 by early next week! I've found the protein powder I love and I'm getting 35-40% protein in every day now, using fewer calories.

Besides, many times, at least 1/2 of the real food that goes down, comes back up for a vote! Not sure why, but, as long as I'm healthy and continue on the right course, I'm fine with it. It's been a whole 'mind game' lately as well. I've become a pro at making marvelous SMOOTHIES OR SHAKES!! And, they're all healthy, filling and loaded with protein powder.

Old habits die hard. At night, watching tv, the brain says, what can we snack on...crunchy, maybe salty...and the tummy says, I'm full. Thus, the battle, but I'm getting better at it. I have this strong desire to drop another 50 by the 1st of August. After that, only 30 or 35 to go.

I love my band...and, I love the changes in my life! I wouldn't not do it if it were to do over. My energy soars and each day, I look a little different. That's exciting. Back into wearing eye shadow, all my makeup, matching outfits, etc. It comes with the NEW TERRITORY. I think it's called having my pride back on board.

Anyhow, end of month, I hope all is well with everyone! Love to hear from ya'll, leave a note or send an email! How are YOU these days?
