Good evening, or should I say night, lol. How is everyone doing?
Kind of a quiet day around here. I got up and picked up Caleb from school. "Can we go to McDonald's Mom?" "Don't you want to go to martial arts, today? If you do, we don't have time for McDonald's right now, but Daddy can take you after class." "I don't want to go to martial arts, I want to go to McDonald's now." Oh sure. Caleb's been twice this week to martial arts so that's fine by me. Drive to McDonalds, order, and get up tot he window to pay and guess what? I forgot my wallet at home. Silly me! I had it pulled it out last night buying something online and forgot to put in back in my purse. "Sorry boy. You can go to McDonalds tomorrow. Do you want to go to martial arts now?" "No, I want to go home and watch cartoons." Okay. Caleb has extra homework to do today as we didn't get finished yesterday so that is okay with me, too.
Oh guess what I got today? I really have been doing so horrible on my diet since going to San Diego. As a matter of fact, I have gained 4 pounds since then. Ugh. That means not only did I gain back the 3.4 pounds I had lost, I gained an extra pound also. Yea! Just in time for the holidays to hit and Kathryn's cheesecake. Ugh. So I decided since I was having a hard time losing weight and getting motivated that I would try one of those food prepared diets. eDiets has one such program and you can choose from all sorts of plans like low fat, low cholesterol, low carbs, diabetic, etc. I chose low carb for this week and then got to calculating and determined it probably wasn't going to be the best plan for me. It would if it was more like Atkins, but it's not exactly Zone friendly (40%protein, 30%fat, 30%carbs). So I am choosing low cholesterol for next week as it is the closest plan to Zone offered. So eDiets prepares all the meals fresh and send it to you a week at a time. All the food is stored in your refrigerator, not the freezer. I've eaten two meals so far today and they are both very good. The down side of all this is that it is pretty expensive, but I'm all for that if I can start losing the weight I need. Hopefully I can jump start my weight loss and switch over to me cooking pretty soon. This is kind of a birthday present to myself, KWIM? I just can't go around being fat and 40-something forever. I just hate looking at myself in the mirror. I want to lose 25 pounds, and that is a lot on me to lose being only 4'10". Another thing I've got to do is get back to exercising and get rid of the Halloween candy! I took some to work already, but I need to get it ALL out of here. 
Oh man, my right hand is hurting like crazy! I injured it last year when the boy decided he had to be first into the house and tripped me in the process. Now I know he didn't mean to hurt me, but I fell and jammed my hand into the door frame. I had/have a "gamekeeper's fracture" which is a break between the thumb and index finger. It has taken almost a year for it to get better because I'm stubborn and refused to wear a cast because "I can't work wearing a cast". Dumb me. Well my hand has been feeling much better the last month or two, so what do I do? I scrub the heck out of my shower tonight and now my hand is throbbing. Pretty smart. Oh, did I say it's my dominant right hand that is hurt. Of course it is! LOL.
Have a great night!

Thursday Threesome::A Day in the Rain::
Onesome: A Day--or so ago? Oops, wrong meme. Wait, that might be cool... "A Day or So Ago, I saw......." You fill it in <my boy doing “kick and punch”>!
Twosome: in-- case of rain, do you carry an umbrella? ...or do you just hoof it in a hat? Depends if I get a head’s up or not. If I’m in my car or heading to my car, then I grab the umbrella.
Threesome: the Rain-- in Spain? Nah, how about locally: has the rainy season kicked in for you yet? Snow? Nothing? Come on, it's almost Thanksgiving here in the States! The rainy season has already passed for the desert of AZ. We should get another monsoon season in the spring.

What an awesome journal ya have here! I am so glad ya stopped by my journal and left a comment.
Well, I don't think I would do the ediet thing. Not my style plus I don't have the money to buy that kind of stuff. I can tell ya what would help out with your diet. I have a uncle that was at least over 500lbs. The doctor told him to cut out his red meat, eat more baked food and exercise. He lost over 200lbs in about 2 years. He didn't exersice that much either. He is pretty lazy. The only time he moves is to the kitchen to eat, to the bathroom, doctor visits or run to the store for food. LOL Anyhow I like my red meat... but I have cut some out of my diet. I have lost 25lbs in the past 2 months. I don't exercise either. I am lazy... except when I work....lol Ya might want to try that method to lose the extra pounds. Maybe I should have just emailed ya... this comment is pretty long.
Have a great Week Hun!
Hugs,
Chelle
