Trip to the ER.

I had to take Alicia to the ER again last night.  This time for her wrist.  She had hurt it playing volleyball during lunch. With the way she was acting and the way her wrist was looking I was thinking if she didn’t sprain it really good she must have a minor fracture. Turns out she sprained it really good.  She has to wear a splint on her wrist for the next two weeks, but she is fine.  Alicia was worried that she might have broken something and have to wear cast.  If that would have been the case she wouldn’t have been able to play her trumpet or be able to perform in her school’s band concert next week.

Body Make Over Progress.

I did my test run on the six week body make over and I have lost 5 pounds in 5 days.  I know it is just water weight, but the faster I lose the water weight the faster I can get to real results!

6 week Body Make over day 2

Yesterday was on first day of trying the 6 week body make over plan. After dropping my daughter off at school I hit Wal-Mart to get the proper foods for the rapid 6 day period. I only ate what was either on the card or in Infinite Menu Planner, but the exception of dinner. I wasn’t going about to buy all those groceries. I felt great and I didn’t feel hungry after a meal. I was thinking I was going to but I didn’t. After all 3 oz of chicken and ½ cup of fruit really isn’t all that much.


I know I can’t do the whole plan the way it says I should for my body type. I am anemic, which I have to control by a diet plan. I am supposed to eat foods that are high in iron. I am to do that by eating red meats and high iron veggies. According to the 6 week program I am to cut way back on the red meats and eat only white meat.

Eating the wrong foods for my body type really isn’t my biggest problem. My biggest problem is that I tend to skip meals. I have never been someone to eat breakfast. For many years I didn’t eat breakfast. For lunch I would have something small, like a lunch meat sandwich with a glass of milk. So my problem is more of not eating enough food. My body would store the fat as its own survival

I did eat breakfast yesterday. I wasn’t hungry but I ate anyway. I had three egg whites and a banana that I washed down with large glass of water.

Shoes!

For several weeks now I have been trying to find a pair of shoes for Alicia. It is so hard to find shoes for her. The ones she likes are never in her size or too expensive. She was given a gift card by one of my friends. Why he gave it to I do not really know, but he did. So she decided that she would get her a pair of shoes she really liked. We went to four different stores and didn’t have any luck at all. A friend called me while we were at the mall. When I told her what we were doing she told me about a sale going on at another store. So Alicia and I drove across town to look. Right away she found a pair of shoes. With the sale and the gift card she had I spent a total $2.50 on a $60.00 pair of shoes!

Organizing hell!

All day long I have been sorting, moving and deciding what to get rid of in my scrap room. It has quickly become more of a chore then I thought!

Made some new scrapping friends!

A while back I found scrapbook group on meetup.com Friday night we had our first meeting. I had a blast. We talked about doing a monthly challenge which I think would be great! Then I went to a crop a LSS. Even though I walked out the door and left all of pictures behind I still had a lot of fun!
