ToT

1. It’s been a long time since I’ve done one of these, so I’m not going to have a theme this time. Just going to type random things just like this one.

2. My Holiday Party is coming and I’m looking forward to it. I went out and bought a dress to wear and can’t wait to show it off! I wish that I felt better in the red one I tried on because it was a 12 (can you believe that I got in to a 12!! I haven’t been able to wear a 12 since I was pregnant with Brittany!!).

3. Still worried about work and what’s happening there but feeling a little better that they are here from PA this week and may talk to us about insurance. I’m worried that some of the negativity that is in the office because of it all will cause issues, but maybe it will be okay. I love my job and would like to keep it.

4. I can’t believe that it is almost December. Tomorrow is the first day of December and I can’t believe how fast this year has gone. It’s crazy! We are about to celebrate a new year. What happened to 2010??

5. I have so much left to do for Christmas and I thought I was getting close to being done with my shopping. I don’t know how I’m going to get it all done.

6. I think I’m going to start reviewing the books that I read as I do read a bit and I’m not sure what I’ll say about them, but it might be something to do.

7. I have to go to the dentist, as I have a major toothache and I am scared to death to go. Tomorrow I have a cleaning scheduled so then we can figure out what’s wrong and I am taking a Xanax from a friend because I have such anxiety about going. I want to be knocked out for the whole thing but it’s a $350 thing and it’s not covered under insurance.

8. I have been eating clementines like they are going out of style. I can eat 6 or 7 in one sitting. How many is too many?

9. I know I keep bringing this up but I wish that the weight would magically just fall off. It doesn’t seem to want to do that. I need to get back to the Zumba classes. Maybe an idea for Christmas if someone hasn’t bought me a gift. A gift certificate to the Zumba classes at the Hanover Mall (hint, hint, hint)

10. It’s a lot harder to do one of these when you don’t have a theme to go with. This last one really isn’t one, but I’m going to make it one because I can’t think of anything else to write.

Diet Diary

So I got on the scale again today and I would like to say that I lost weight as Eric has and unfortunately that is not the case. I don’t know what I gained because I turned off the Wii before I could see but I gained again. I hate this. I know that I have an excuse because it’s that week but still. Eric keeps losing weight and I just keep gaining it. He loses 4 lbs and I gain .4 lbs. He loses 2 lbs and I gain .2 lbs. It stinks! I know that it doesn’t seem like a lot but I had originally lost 23 lbs and gained 13 of it back. I lost a little when I got back from Disney but have gained all that back. It stinks! I have to be patient, I know but it’s not easy.

Fun things that were said during the Epcot Beer Tour…

1. Tommy talking about Julie Andrews in the United Kingdom (their 2nd beer) – “Isn’t she in those singy songy movies?”
2. Asking Eric what kind of beer he got in the United States (their 7th beer) – “Brr…brr…brr…beer something” (it was actually called Sam Adams Brick Red)
3. Tommy in the United States (their 7th beer) – “Why does Billy Ocean look like Uncle Sam?”
4. Eric complaining about the American woman at the Italian booth (their 8th beer) – “They could have at least put a Mexican at the booth.”
5. Eric asking the waitress a question at the Biergarten restaurant in Germany (their 6th beer) – “Do you have German beer here?” – wanted to make sure it was German Beer as opposed to a fake one
6. Tommy talking about the food at the German restaurant (their 6th beer) – “The cucumber soup is good dipped in the salad.”
7. Tommy after his first drink in Canada – “FU Canada!” (he had a bit of a tummy ache and bombed the UK
8. Not truly a quote, but in Morrocco (their 4th beer) Victor was the only one that knew that Morrocco was in Africa.
9. With above, Eric only knew about the Mississippi Queen.
10. Lastly, also not a quote, but in the United States, Eric and Tommy were having their picture taken like the Captain Morgan commercial and Eric couldn’t keep up his leg. This was their 7th beer (and close to their last).

Diet Diary

So it’s been awhile since I’ve really done anything, but I am getting back on the diet as I have gained way more than I would like to admit too! I am back up to 198, which is only 11 lbs less than I was before I started the original diet. I want to get back down to the 186 that I was at by the end of the holidays, though I know that that might be stretching it! I would at least like to lose half of what I gained by then, so 6 lbs. Eric and I both started back on Alli today and cross your fingers for me. I need to find some exercise to do to add to the weight loss that I am hoping for because unfortunately the pill won’t do it on it’s own. I walked a lot in Disney, so hopefully I can walk again, even if it means heading to the mall and doing it there. I have the Zumba dvd too, so I will get back to doing that and maybe some sit-ups and things like that too. Cross your fingers for me!
