Beckster's "homestretch run" diary

My daughter dragged me to the Macy's "one day sale", OK she didn't drag me, but.....They had a bunch of jeans on sale. Now for those who watch "What Not to Wear", Stacy and Clinton would have had a heart attack, however...I fit in to a pair of size 7 junior jeans, and I bought em, cuz they only cost $4.99. They looked great. Women my age shouldn't be buying clothes in the juniors section.....oh well. A while back my right thigh would have taken up the waist measurement in those jeans:eek: .
 
hey it's International Polar Bear Day - have you hugged a polar bear today? probably not the wisest thing to do -they are cute but thoroughly mean creatures :)
 
I've been able to get a couple of hours of walking in this weekend. Haven't been doing my situps etc, my hip was killing me, and I mean killing me when I was resting in bed at night. Now it's better, so back to work. Weigh in is tomorrow....I was bad over the weekend....Girl Scout cookies. Yummmm, I ate four at a time two days running, that's 600 cals a shot. BAAADDDD Becky!!!
 
Burning calories through housework...yeh, I think I burned a few today. Washed walls, floors, scrubbed and scrubbed. Plus, went for a walk out in the cold wind. My son comes home from his trip to Mexico tomorrow night,Yay!!
 
I hope you have fun with your son when he returns :). If you are looking to burn calories with housework, I have a "gym" here in Chicago you are welcome to use ;)
 
Hi Everyone!! The scale will move for you Happy!! Cannon...these bursts of energy don't come every day now. I've been out walking, it's been beautiful outside!!
 
If I didn't know better, I'd swear I'm having a panic attack kind of day. The sky is falling---or is it??? I can't stand it, maybe I had too much caffeine. No matter what my husband says to me to calm me down it isn't working. I'm obsessing about everything...things I have no proof are even problems. Yikes!! I know it will go away, but man I hate this. I haven't felt like this is a very long time. As far as the weight loss goes, I'm doing well. I've been cutting my fat intake some, as I needed to reign it in a little bit. I'm actually having less hunger pains in the last few days. For a while there I was hungry constantly, no matter what I ate. I'm also revving up my water intake, and that has helped too. We'll see what the scale says Tuesday.
 
OK, hopped on the scale a day early, and I'm holding steady. YaY!! I am on a spring cleaning binge at my house (evil laugh here). Nothing is sacred, the clutter is going!!! Today, I tackled a closet that had become the "throw it in there spot". It is now completely cleared out, old clothes gone, walls and floor washed. I'm not telling how many bags of clothes and shoes I threw out:D .
 
It sure is nice to finally tackle the Spring Cleaning. This is the first year ever that I don't have to do very much of it. I love you cleaning lady wherever you are today :). Best $40 a week ever.
 
Amen to that Cannon!!! Well, folks just let me say that I LOVE THE SCALE AT WORK!!! According to that scale, I've lost 55 lbs, and that's weighing myself with my clothes on. I'm so excited!!!! Another goal hit!!! Now, do I lose a couple more...hmmm. Probably would be good, however, admitting I need to
may be more difficult.
 
Howdy Beckster,

Geeesh scrubbing walls and floors I would say heck yeah
