The Diet goes ON.

Just a short note about the nutrisystem diet. I am still on it . I have eaten "regular" food and I seem to be able to control my intake,but then I go right back on it. At this moment I have lost an honest 11 pounds. And that is without any exercise! I know I have a long way to go but this morning, for the first time, I could tell that my clothing was more comfortable! yea!

My New High Tech Life!

I realize that my blogging has reached an all time low and it makes me feel inept.  I remember in days, not so long ago, I seemed to have significantly more time than I do now.  That is strange because I am still at the same job in the same place...how did I do it before? Well never mind there is no help for that, but let me share the Coolest thing I have recently added to my life...an i phone!  Yep, I now have one and it scares me to say it because I am afraid that someone will want to come and take it a way form me. You know that the prices have gone down and the   i phone is now cheaper than many other types of phones- but above and beyond that I LOVE IT! If you have an opportunity to play with one, do! My i phone has an i pod in it along with a GPS. I can access my face page, my email, and if I could figure out what my user name is for blogger I could be blogging from it...you just can't believe it. This phone has 16 gigs of memory and runs with 3 gigs. It is fast and fun and did I mention that I LOVE IT!

Delila Move over...

Well it finally happened! Connell cut his hair.  Even now it was not his idea-no the powers that rule the Opryland Hotel told him to cut it.  Now I just wonder how some of those girls in the kitchen look with their hair cut above their collar. This was a very traumatic event for my dearest friend- he has always been a good sport about losing his hair-as long as he could hold onto what he had- I really like it ! I think Connell is looking good! Now Eddie wants to get his do done too.

I Live by the Scale...

Ok so yesterday I got a bit flustered. We were rushing around and I hadn't eaten yet. dum dum dum... Well surely I could come up with a reasonably fast lunch...possibly portable. I got my little book out and started to plan -cross-eyed. I realize that I couldn't do a total lunch all that portable, but my snack (apple and low fat cheese) and a lunch replacement bar I could manage. Off we flew with fruit and dairy all the way...snacking snacking snacking. When we got home it was too late to eat lunch (I didn't get to that lunch bar) so I ate dinner (Cheese ravioli in sauce, snap peas, and just a bit of Parmesan cheese) yummy! I was now missing lunch and I was to have some dessert before bed. I chose that lunch bar instead of dessert (I guess I could have had two?) and went to bed nervous because I had gotten off schedule. Totally expecting that I not be happy on the scales this morning (I mean seriously just HOW long has it been since I got happy stepping on a set of scales?) I stepped on -wait a minute I hadn't had my morning constitutional-that could mean extra weight! No, be brave, I told myself, and stepped on....WOW I lost 4 pounds!
