Friday May 28

I'm not posting my weight because I don't believe it. I think my scale is broken. I have been eating like shit and it says it's at 277. I don't believe it.

Today I ate a protien smoothy then we went to dinner and had fresh spring rolls and a half a siagon crepe and half of the bun.

I hate this.

Thursday May 27

I'm not talking about weight today. Nathan is in Disneyland and I ate 3 Krispy Creams the other day. I will get back on board soon.

So today I was watching the doctors and they were talking about pre marital sex. And I was getting mad because some lady on there was saying that parents are qualified to teach their kids about it because they are not informed. Well I think i am so I was offended. They started talking about rainbow parties and I of course had to google it. So I am not totally informed but I think I am pretty good. I talk to my boys. I am sitting here writing and talking to Lucas who is not answering any of my questions right. He is not having pre marital sex and he won't listen to my rules so if he changes his mind, he is going to be in trouble. Not really cuz he is a very good boy and won't mess up.

Here is where I stand. Expecting your kids to never have premarital sex I think is niave. I do hope for that but won't be crushed if it doesn't happen. These are the rules. NO meaningless sex. No unprotected sex. That is my bottom line.

OK I have to go type Lucas' culture fair paper. Let me know what ya'll think.

Saturday May 22

281.1

I don't feel like bloggings so it probably means that I should even more. It's been a busy week. Blaine had two track meets. My friend had her gastric bypass and Blaine turned 16 BUT!!!!!!! today...... my damn period finally came! I had NO clue it was coming.

Blaine's Tuesday track meet was at South. We hosted it so I got my wonderful little group together to do the discus and shot put. Nathan, and Kyle to the shot put and Brent Lucas and I did the discus. The Oakland Bay coach kept coming up to our coach and complaining about how we were doing things. We had never gotten direction from anyone (well last year Mr. Winn did tell me a little and I had different measurers but who remembers what they did last year.) A mom was over by the shot and she made Nathan so mad that he thrust his note pad at her and asked her if she wanted to do it. He said that he was NEVER volunteering again. That really made me mad that someone pissed him off that bad. Later I found out that I could have kicked her off the field cuz she wasn't suppose to be there. OK Thursday's track meet was really exciting. Blaine broke a John Sedgwick record from 1986 and he is the new state record of 167 feet. It is soo exciting! I keep checking athletic.net to see if it is updated but it is not yet.

My friend's gastric bypass was successful but they had to open her up and she was hoping that wouldn't be necessary and the surgery took 6 hours. I am not expecting mine to take as long. She had had a horrible car accident years ago which caused scar tissue and I think that had a lot to do with the scar tiussue. I have never been opened up so I don't expect to find any. She is doing well today and have taken her off IVs and she is taking things orally. I will probably go see her Monday.

Friday well lets back up. Thursday, Eli came and Emma and Kyle stayed the night. Friday, I took Emma and Kyle to school, picked Blaine up, got coffe at Starbucks and took Eli to school. Then Blaine and I went to Bremerton to get his photo taken and pay for his drivers license! He is now 16. We went to Amy's for lunch and took him back to school. Nathan and I went to Costco and got food for Blaine's party. I came home, made a watermelon fruit basket, cut up a pineapple and added grapes. Everyone came over. Nathan got 4 pizzas from Costco. We had a good time. Today, I am exhausted.

I will be back in a few days. I got a couple of names of really good surgery blogs. One is theworldaccordingtoeggface.

Tuesday May 18 (30th anniversary of Mt. St Helen's)

279.7

I am still doing my hypnosis. The basis of the weightloss in this program is to eat what you want but eat only half. Some days I eat healthy like a protien shake and I eat the whole thing because I need it. Other days I eat what I want and I can eat half. I made an omlette this morning with smoked salmon and brie! I really wanted to eat it ALL. I cut it in half before I started eating. I ate half and I enjoyed it. I slowed down and enjoyed every bite.

I am still trying to stay away from sugar and salt. I found myself eating more salt and it didn't affect me that badly as far as the swelling goes but as soon as I ate some sugar POOF! I blew up like a marshmallow, so I am really trying to not eat sugar and to eat less salt. My taste buds are changing. My friends gastric by pass is surgery is this Friday and i don't know when or if mine will ever happen. I know I am doing well and I am so happy for her that she can do this and she will feel so much better but I think it's going to be hard to just watch the pounds drop off. Maybe it will be more of an incentive!!! Yes yes yes. Go friend! I love you.

Today is Blaine's track meet. I so love to watch him throw.

How can I get Jillian to read my blog?

All I did yesterday was EAT. Thank you Elsie. It was soooo good.

Today I am very frustrated because I don't know Gods plan for me as far as this weightloss and this surgery goes. I got the scope like the doctor wanted then I met with the PA and she said that everything should go ahead. I have to lose 30 lbs which I am working on. I called a couple of weeks ago and the office had done nothing with the insurance but she would call me Monday or Tuesday and let me know what the insurance requirements are. That was a couple of weeks ago. It straight up pisses me off. I hate having to hound them. If I didn't pay my bill they wouldn't hound me they would send me to collections.

I still need Jillian to come exercise with me. I don't want her but I need her.

I wonder if this insurance dragging is God telling me there is another way. If there is God, Please tell me what it is SOON!

See ya tomorrow.

Sunday May 16

279.9

I slept like a ROCK last night. Probably because Blaine walks a million miles and minute and doesn't slow down just because his mom is fat and slow. We got up, rode the ferry to Seattle, walked up a desent grade to Pike place where we met Elsie. We first met Elsie when Mark and I were at WSU in 1985. I haven't seen her in 13 years. It was a great day. You know those kind of people that your can talk to once a year and not see for decades and then act like you had just seen them yesterday when you get together? That is how we are. I figure I burned off most of what I ate yesterday. I had a Hum Bow, then Elsie cooked some fish curry (with fresh yummy salmon) then they took us to Anthoney's. I ate the whole hum bow, picked at the salmon because it was getting to late for lunch and ate 1/2 of my crab cake for dinner. This morning I ate the other crab cake for breakfast and had some fish curry. My downfall still is this damn carmel corn that Lucas makes. I LOVE IT! I still have to get into this exercise thing because I am not motivated. Loosing weight would be a lot easier if I exercised but it HURTS.

Still listening to the hypnosis. If nothing else, I feel great when I come out.

279.4 Again!

It seems like I spend the whole week re losing the weight I gained on the weekend. I need to try to be good this week end.

We got our half a side of beef yesterday.

I can't think of anything to say. Oh MY GOSH!!!!! It's a miricle. I can't believe I am out of words. OK, phew, it only lasted a minute.

I need to exercise. I don't want to exercise. I sweat really really badly and I hate it. The only exercises I can do is swim or ride my bike. I have NO motiviation. This is what I need Jillian for. I think I am ok, not great but ok when it comes to food. I am back on track with the sugar and kinda ok with salt. I just can't get motiviated to exercise. Nathan is driving me crazy right now. He wants me to stop blogging a go put hotdogs on the BBQ. Arggggg.

OK, someone get Jillian or Bob (I'd rather have Bob) come exercise with me so I can get moving a little faster. Gotta go grill those gross dogs!

283.1 I think.

I was just watching Oprah. I am interested in a book she featured. Women, Food, and God author Geneen Roth helps you conquer your food issues once and for all. So I am getting this book because I need to get this under control before my surgery. I have to go get Blaine. More later.

I'm back on track. I had protien this morning and cantelope. Blaine has track today. I am excited to see him throw. Eli is going home today. He is having a tough day. I still havn't had a damn period. Is it menopause or well I know I'm not pregnant. I have back pain, I'm bithcy. I'm crampy. UG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How long will I feel like this. Oh ya and last night Lucas made carmel corn. He thought that I thought that he couldn't do it because I did not want him to make it. I didn't want him to make it because I LOVE carmel corn and I sholdn't eat it. But eat it I did. It was delicious! He did a great job. He learned this in cooking. I like cooking! Eli and I cooked a turkey Saturday and he was talking to the turkey. He said "turkey, don't be sad." I have it on video. Hopefully I will have more to talk about tomorrow.

Had WAY too much fun this weekend. I am writing this so I don't stop all together. This is a hard, when things get tough but I'm back on. I got an mp3 player for mothers day and I am listening to the hypnosis lessons and they are making me feel good. For Mother's Day we went to church, the horse races and to Amy's on the Bay for dinner. Eli is here today. I need to get in the shower. I have been drinking. I am going to stop. I just wish I could drink without drinking too much but I can't so I can't drink. Mark is upstairs so I need to go take a shower while someone is watching Eli. More later.

279.8

I am very frustrated today. My damn period hasn't started and I am still crazy.

The weightloss cd is kinda bugging me becuase it says to eat anything I want just eat half. Half of What? I am try to no over eat and I am try to still make good food choices. I have eaten WAY too much fried food today but I have tried to eat half. I had hash browns for breakfast. I don't cut my egg in half but I only put half of the browns that I cooked on the plate. I also added onions and yellow peppers to it. Diana took me to Osaka for lunch and I had the bento box. It was very big and I ate it all except the rice. There were only about 5 pieces of spicey chicken and the sushi was a raw fish sushi not calif. roll that has mayo in it. I ate all of the tempura and loved it! Diana almost died choking on fat. For dinner I had french fries (shared a lot with Skipper), 3/4 of a corn dog and lettuce with blue cheese. Skipper is going to get fat eating the food I don't. I can't leave it on my plate.

Back to the crazies. Diana and I were coming back from Silverdale. Lucas started texting me asking if he could go to a movie tonight with friends. I asked who. He hasn't done this before. I knew a cople of kids but didn't think he ever did anything with them. I asked how he was getting there and he said me. I don't let my kids go bythemselves to meet friends. They have to go with at least one friend so I said that the one who lives close to us should ride with us of visa versa. Lucas texted and he said that I would drive there and they would pick up. Further communication revealed that the tickets were selling out fast and they were going to buy theirs and we should get Lucas'. So we go to Blaine's school, get him and head of to the theater. We get there and the friend was right in front of us and I say something to the dad about what time I should pick the son up and the dad said that he was going. That threw me cuz I Lucas had made arrangements. So I was a bit irritated so then I just asked if Lucas could ride with them. But I felt like a dumb ass because I didn't sound like I knew what I was talking about. So they leave and we get up to the counter and we said something and I said that Lucas was driving me crazy and he goes "she's driving me crazy!" Well that's all I needed. We left, no ticket, no movie. I know I have no patience right now but embarrassing me in public is something that we talk about. So we happened to park right next to the friend and the dad goes so do you want to bring Lucas over and I had to tell him that Lucas wasn't going. I wish this damn period would start and finish cuz I'm not going to survive much more of this.

On a good note. I feel more productive still. I washed Nathan's bedding today and got it in the dryer. Nathan and I cleaned out our nasty garbage can yesterday and I watered my garden. Today I bought some dog shears and cut skipper. Poor Skipper. I suck at shaving. I had to stop to go get Blaine so he has one long ear and one shave ear.I feel fat today and my back hurts. What does that mean?

OK thanks for listening.

Wed. May 5 Feliz Cinco De Mayo

278.9!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm on my way to 275. Still listening to the CDs and I think they are working. They are making me mad right now because the DVD player I am playing them on in my room right now is skipping around in the middle of my hypnosis. I don't know if it's the player or the cd. I am ripping all the CDs to my computer just in case it's the cds and that way I will have a back up.

I think the suggestions are working. I am modifying things a bit because the dude says to eat what ever you want but just eat half. I have already modified my eating, like protien powder or I already eat the six inch sub instead of the 12 inch. I am not ready to eat 3 inches. that sounds funny.

Blaine's track meet went well for Blaine. Well I think it went well. He threw the discus 118 feet. He didn't like it but it was 18 feet further than anyone else. He was second in shot put. I think he will be better in shot next year when he trains more with weights. He thinks he placed in the long jump too. We ate Subway. I do well at Subway. I get the black forest ham with lots of veggies, no chesse and some vinegar. I could get mustard on it but I don't. I get it toasted.

I ate popcorn last night. My popcorn is full of FAT but I love it. I ate half. My salt battle is a battle right now. Sweets, I am still doing well with. I did have some cheap chocolate the other night. No period still. Ug. I have not knowing what's going on in my body. All of my CDs are ripped and now Nathan needs his chocolate chip pancake. He tried to make them Monday and from the garbage can it looked good but he said it was raw inside. I forget to teach him the things I take for granted.

280.9
I LOVE the hypnosis program. I slept like a ROCK last night. I wake up like I normally do but I did my business and went straight back to sleep. I did not worry about all the dumb things that usually keep me up and Mark's snoring didn't keep me up. I am not quaking like a duck yet so it's all good.

Eating half? I have been trying to eat half but I had already switched to healthier food and right now I am not willing to switch back and if I ate half of what I am eating now, I would be too hungry. For example: I drink a protien shake in the morning. I follow the directions and I have one scoop and 6 oz. water. I am not cutting that in half. If I do decide to have a breakfast sandwich I will try eating half. He says that if you don't eat half then he puts a suggestion in that you will feel full and bloated. I am really trying not to eat too much and I don't feel like I am stuffing myself. Diana and I went to Mossimo for lunch today and I had a seafood salad. It was soooo good. Salmon, halibut, shrimp, clams, muscles over a bed of spinach. It wasn't very big and I don't think there was very much fat in it. I ate it all!!! I think I am making good choices.

I have 3 CDs in the package I bought. A weightloss CD, an activity, engery and exercise cd and a stress cd. I am trying to listen to the weightloss cd before bed and at wake up time. When I feel a little dragging I listen to one of the others. I think this is good for me because I have done some meditation and yoga and a little energy healing so I am familiar with relaxation techniques and I am not worried about hidden suggestions.

282.4

I listened to my hypnosis CD today. I love hypnosis. Without sleeping you laydown, close your eyes, listen to someone who is trying to help you make your life better and you come out feeling way better than you did when you woke up after an entire nights sleep. I did the weightloss one first then I listened to the energy and productivity one and when I got up I folded the whole load of whites that Mark had on the bed. Whites are the worst! They have all the socks in them. We bought a 1/4 of a cow and I have to defrost the freezer before it's ready. Before I defrost the freezer and have to go through the two small freezers to make room for the stuff int he big frezzer. I think I may start that today!

Lucas had to games yesterday. The second game was the first game that they had that they weren't 10 runned. It's hard to watch. They lose such heart when they lose so badly. The age is suppose to be 13 and 14 year olds but the two Eastern teams got a waiver to allow 15 year olds on their teams. So these little unpubertied boys are playing against these monsters! They hit one out of the park and we can barely get one out of the infield. lol OK enough of that. My point about the games was that I ate a burger. The Sablans were cooking otherwise I probably wouldn't have bothered but they can cook! I ordered a single play. That is a bacon cheese burger with fries and soda. I gave my bacon to Nathan, 95% of my fries to Lucas and my soda.

The premis for the hypnosis CD is to not deprive yourself. The suggestion that he gives is to eat what you want but eat half. That cracks me up because that is what the bariatric surgeon said to do to take off that 30lbs I need to before surgery. Wouldn't it be funny if the hypnosis works and I dont' need the surgery. He says to have the sweets and salts that you want but eat half but he also says that he puts in suggestions that you won't want the sweets and salts. He puts in that you will crave healthy alternatives.

It's 10:30 am. The house is way too quiet. Lucas is still in bed. Nathan is at work and Blaine stayed the night at a friends. I don't know where Mark is.

See ya soon.
