Valentine's Day

It's Valetine's day and Woody is home. We spent the day doing what we enjoy most, Woody playing tennis , and me shopping and eating. We went for dinner at Wahoo's in Decatur. We enjoyed the meal and it was nice to get out on a Sunday night. Tomorrow is Presidents Day. I have the day off but I'll be working anyway.

To be continued.............

It's Snowing in Atlanta 2010

The weather event predicted actually happened. Snow moved in from the west, the same storm that blanketed Monroe La. is now here. Delta canceled all flights in and out of Hartsfield-Jackson Airport so Woody is stuck in San Antonio. I'm hoping that his flight won't be delayed tomorrow too. The snow started around 2:00, I feel asleep and woke up an hour later to a winter wonderland.

I took Andy Roddick outside to play in the snow. He was funny to watch and as usual didn't listen.

Now the trick will be getting out of the driveway tomorrow morning.........

Sick Weight Loss

Well, what started out like a great idea has turned into a disaster.  I was faithful to my new diet, even found the supplemental food to be pretty good,(especially the caramel bar) and all I have gotten has been a severe migraine headache and night sweats.  To add insult to injury, when I refilled by Zomig the co-pay from my insurance company has gone from $10 to $75 for 12 pills.

So I need a new plan.  As I have lost 7 pounds this week and don't want to gain it back, but can't continue to follow this diet, I will do what I should have done in the first place.  I will call a nutritionist from the wellness program my insurance company offers.  And since I have 7 days to cancel my membership and get my money back.  I will do that too.  Finally I will eat a little crow with the friends that I have told about my dive into dieting and tell them I wasn't able to participate in this diet.  But more than anything I have to get rid of this headache!

I'll keep you posted...........

Quick Weight Loss Day One......

Well I finally bite the bullet and paid the money to the Quick Weight Loss Center to lose the 50 lbs. I seem to have found over the years.  Today is day one and I've decided that no matter what, I'm going to see this through.  I'll drink the nasty drinks, eat the tasteless salads and suffer through the bottle after bottle of water.  I'm told this portion of the diet only lasts for a few days and truth be told, the protein bar was pretty good.  So for the record, it's 197 and counting down!

Tonight Woody and I are off to a Superbowl party in our neighborhood.  I've made red beans and rice which I won't be eating.  Of course we want the Saints to win, but it remains to be seen if Woody can stomach watching the whole game.  Since we don't have any Saints gear, we'll be wearing the LSU colors, complete with my new purple handbag.  Pictures to come!
