Simple Monday

Outside my window...it's cloudy and it just rained.

I am thinking...unfortunately today may be a pity party day for me. I'm not feeling well at all today. Seems I've caught a summer cold very early in the summer, so hopefully that means I am getting it out of the way for the rest of the season!

I am thankful for...family!

From the kitchen...I had to eat, so I made 1/2 cup egg substitute with 1 oz. of very thinly sliced and diced turkey from the deli and a slice of cheese. I also ate 1/2 of a thing of strawberry applesauce. That's all I could eat.

I am wearing...pajamas. If I could live in them, I would.

I am creating...nothing. I'm not creative. Ok, wait, does this blog count? I will probably keep repeating that.

I am going...nowhere today.

I am reading...nothing really. Notes from school. Band blogs. Pinterest.

I am hoping...that I feel better tomorrow. The laundry does not do itself!

I am hearing...the air conditioning and the fan on.

Around the house...it just needs a general picking up. Bits and pieces of things here and there need to be put away.

One of my favorite things...popsicles and fudgesicles. I ate way too many yesterday. I think yesterday was my first day that I feel like I was way off band-wise.

Well, I weighed myself this morning and although I haven't shared my weight here on the blog, I will tell you in my pre-op side I lost 25 lbs. over maybe a 2 month period. Since my surgery 3 weeks ago today, I've lost 16.6 lbs. For a total of 41.6 lbs. That is the most I've lost in my life. Honestly. No diet has ever worked that well for me. I'm well on my way toward getting my weight off of me. It's exciting to see the number. I wish I was more of a positive person, look at what I've accomplished type. Instead I tend to lean toward, look what I still need to do. None the less, it's 40+ lbs that are now gone!! That's a preschooler!!!!!! Woo hoo!!
