Still a chunky monkey but I am attempting to move away from black all the time :)

I really don't have too much to report.  My body has been a little funky since surgery and weight loss this month has been super slow.  I was cleared to exercise yesterday.  I am feeling so much better.  I don't think that I fully realized how bad I was feeling but the change has been amazing!  I am no where near as tired and I am actually in the mood to be up and about. Bad part is I have an appetite!  I have a fill scheduled for the 4/2 so I am hoping that will help a bit. 

Have a lovely weekend all!

BYOC


1.     How do you feel about college? If you have kids or siblings - will you encourage or require them to go? How long did you go and what for?

I have a bachelors in communication (worthless) and I am working on a master’s in health care admin.  I had my daughter at 19 so I did undergrad while working full time and with a baby.  Did it make me stronger – yes! Was it hard – for sure!  I will say that I am sad that I never really had the full college experience. 

She better go to college. :) 


2. Pink or purple? Coke or Pepsi? Pen or pencil? Cursive or printing? Ketchup or mustard?

Purple
Diet Pepsi – although I don’t drink soda anymore
Pen
Cursive

3. If you could live in any generation - which one would it be?

I am just fine with now
4. What do you sleep in?

Sweats and a t-shirt – I am always freezing

5. Repeat question - summarize your week!

I was off most of the week b/c of my gallbladder but had to drag myself to the office in time for Friday haha

BYOC


Thanks to our rockin and delightful Draz we have our weekly installment of BYOC!
1. Since I talked about psychics this week - I'm curious....if you could see one for free and you could only ask one question - what would it be?

Honestly psychics scare the crap out of me.  I enjoy not knowing….. Plus I don’t think it would be possible for me to ask only one question without following up with a bazillion more!

2. What's your favorite ice cream flavor and topping?
I am not a fan of toppings but I love a twist soft serve from McDonalds!

3. What's your preferred method of working out? DVDs, an external gym, gym inside your home, classes?

External gym – I need an environment that is only devoted to working out – no distractions!

4. If you work outside the home or if you ever did or will in the future - do you think it's better/easier to work with men or woman? Who do you work mostly with now?

Urgh!!  I work with all women and one man….  Too much drama, PMS, attitude and so on!  Luckily (for me), I share my office with the boy (not so lucky for him)!   

5. Repeat question. Summarize your week in real life and in blog land.

Both are good!

February Review/March Goals

Happy Friday!!! :)

Current Weight - 214.4
Total Lost in February - 5.4 lbs
Total Exercise Minutes - 562 minutes

I didn't meet either of my February goals (8lbs and 1200 minutes) but I am not disappointed with my loss either! 

March Goals:
Lose 8lbs
Exercise 800 minutes
Join Gym

Side note - they are taking out my gallbladder on Thursday the 8th - I am stressed and relieved.  I am hoping that once the pain is gone I will be more successful with the exercise and weight loss. Please pray for me!  I am very scared of surgery!!
