Bellaryna's Journey

Kimmyj must spend oodles of time looking for cool weightloss sites,
she found one at the prevention site that lets you build a virtual model so that you can a visual to motivate you.
I think I may even register so that I can use a real picture of me.
Mine are attached.

Could you post a link to this website? That looks totally cool. :D

Hope you have fun at the baseball game. I don't know about your neck of the woods, but they are forecasting 79 degree highs for Fri and Sat here!! :party:

Congrats on losing even more weight!!

Ask and you shall receive! lol


Ah the baseball game was such a blast. The Tincaps won!!! Oh by the way we were playing the West Michigan White Caps. Sorry Kimberly. *not really* hahaha :sifone:
Don't even talk to me about those wonderful temps. Those are the days that I have to go to work, in 55* temps no less! Grrrr. :cuss:

Thanks for the kudos on the weightloss. I really feel like I am finally back on track.
 
Ok i'm totally jealous on your rapid weight loss!!! Good for you! Ok sooooo is DH dear husband? Heheh.. Im such a dork ! I had to bust out the calculator right now to determine where I am at compared to you. So in 3 weeks and 2 days i've lost 9.6! Yahooo.. oh gosh how i'd love a huge loss.. but im in it to win it! No quitting. How are you doing on your running? Gosh last night I did week 4 day 3.. I was thinking of redoing that today but im going for week 5! Yikes. I hadn't been able to get in the gym since last Wednesday so it felt good but I was toast after I was finished. I stayed on that treadmill for 55 min!! Wooot wooot!

Have a blessed day

Don't be jealous! Look how wonderful you have done. I always like to count up the days and compare them to the weight-loss. I tend to only see the day to day and when I look back long term and see how far I have come it really puts it into perspective.

I have not ran since Saturday. :( My back was hurting so badly on Monday that I didn't want to chance hurting it worse. Even after the chiro adjusted me. Was going to do it yesterday but.........I just got lazy :ack2:
And of course I went to the ball game with dh (and yes that is for dear husband :)).
I still can go tonight and most likely will. But I will be one day behind........again! hahaha
Sounds like the story of my life.
Always a $ short and a day late. lol
Thanks for the blessings. Mwah
 
The game was a BLAST!!! :hurray:
We had seats just slightly behind home plate. Only 2 rows up from the ground. So it really felt like we were in the game. There was no wall just a net that went straight to the ground. Good thing too! There were a few times the ball got tipped and came flying our way. Hard enough to leave an indention in the net!
I took a few pics of the day and will attach them.
Eating for today wasn't entirely bad but not entirely good either......hahaha
I mean we were at the ball park for goodness sake!
All those wonderful delicious smells.........Mmmmmm. :drool5::drool5:
Before we had even left the house I decided that I was going to have a nacho and cheese order. That way those smells wouldn't sabotage me into getting anything else. No matter how good they smelled.
Dh got a bag of salted roasted peanuts still in their shells and I had about 5 of those. I love to suck the salt off them before I eat them. I don't know if that is weird or what.
I have not had anywhere near the amount of water I need to have today but I can always rectify that before the night is out.

Breakfast
egg sandwich made with one slice of bacon, 1/2 a slice of cheese, 1tsp of mayo and an english muffin ( cal count = 285)
Snacks (at the game)
peanuts (5 salted/roasted in the shell) (cal count ?)
nachos and cheese (cal count ?)
Drinks
sugar free cappachino (sp. I know) made with skim milk (cal count ?)
20oz water (cal count = 0)
23oz Arizona Diet Green Tea (cal count = 0)
Dinner
4oz grilled chix (cal count ?)
6oz sweet taters, no topping (cal count ?)
bag of steamed California blend (cal count ?)

I haven't plugged my food into the Daily Plate yet but I don't think it was that bad. And I do plan to get my run in at the YMCA before they close. So all in all the day went very well I think.
 
Derrr!
After all that I forgot to attach the pictures *smacking self up side the head!*
Here they are.

I don't really care for the one of myself with dh. Since I was trying to take the picture myself I had my chin to far down making it look like I have a huge double chin. Which I don't have! hahaha Or at least not one so big! :sifone:

Yep that's me...........Superwoman! :smilielol5:
Dundadaduh! Now if only I could find that stupid cape, must be buried under that massive pile of laundry on the couch!

Thanks for the kudos!

Let's not talk about laundry... mines seems to be never ending.. and whn I do brake thru and get it done, it seems I can never have the whole package.. wash, fold, PUT AWAY!! Blahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

You are amazing.. I only have one child and a husband LOL.. im slacking!

I love you pics. You are too stinkin cute.
 
Making this quick since we have bible study tonight. Which means that afore mentioned pile of laundry needs to be folded and put away. As well as the rest of the house needs picking up.
Was still at 205.4 this morning. But once again that was only with 5 1/2-6 hours sleep.
Soooo it could be possibly lower.
*Shamefaced* I still didn't get to the gym to run. My mom wanted to go to the store and I didn't get home until 7pm. Which is getting ready for bed time for my kids. And I didn't feel like running at 8:30 at night again.
Would have ran today after work but I had to take my youngest to the allergist at 10am. And of course that needs to be at least a 40 minute drive away! ha
So I didn't even get back home until about a 1/2 hour ago.
My little man and I had lunch out.
We ate at Culvers. Home of the Butter Burger.
I am really proud of myself. Even though I had a burger I had it with no butter on the bun and no mayo.
Also instead of fries I had green beans.
I did get a 1/2 scoop ice cream cone of their vanilla custard.
I am not worried about it though since that is going to be my "big" meal for the day.
Everyone in the small group bible study decided that they wanted to order pizza for tonight, so I will have that in my house.
But again, no worries.
The last time there was pizza in my house I didn't have any of it at all. And if I can resist once I can surely resist it again.
Well this house ain't gonna pick itself up, unfortunatly, so I better be heading on outta here.
Later Gators!

Of course after I posted that ugly double chin pic I found a better one! hahah
Never fails.
So when I have time I am going to post that one instead of the one that is currently attached.

As for the laundry I am seriously thinking of going Amish in that my kids will only have so many outfits and that is it!
Who cares if they wear the same thing to school one week to the next. I know I did as a kid and I turned out just fine.
Or at least I think I did. No one has ever told me that I turned out weird for always wearing the same clothes. hahaha
 
Got some great news today. For those of you who know about my birthdaughter and the letter I wrote to her in November...........she wrote me back!!!!!
I got an email today. I wrote her right back but have not gotten a response yet.
Ohhhh I am on pins and needles.
:beating:
 
Okay so after basically sitting and staring at the computer all night, waiting....:toetap05:, and waiting....:toetap05:, and waiting....:toetap05: some more *lol*, my daughter friended me on my Facebook account.
We ended up chatting for like 3 hours! I was able to see hundreds of beautiful pictures of her and talk about everything under the sun. From our favorite cereal's to circumstances that led me to make the decision that I did.
It was by far one of the best 3 hours in my life. They flew by so fast and I didn't want to let her go. But she is a Senior in high school and still needed to get some rest before the next morning.
I woke up this morning feeling like I was on cloud nine!
Only then after I had been up about 20 minutes we got a phone call. The phone call.
The one that said my mentor, my beautiful lovely friend at church, our Senior Minister's wife had passed away in the night. It wasn't a shock. We all knew that Marcia's time was near............but still to know that she is no longer here with us is somewhat bittersweet. :angelsad2:
It was only 1 month ago that our families got together while on vacation in TN to eat at her favorite pancake place.
I know that right now she is dancing and singing in Heaven. Whole once again, but I still miss her.
I soooo wanted to be able to tell her about Laura. Somehow I know she knows.
Marcia I love you.........and miss you. :Angel_anim:
 
Hello Bellaryna, I am sorry to hear about your friend's passing, I just had a relative pass away at the beginning of this week. My heart goes out to you. :beating:

I've only been to one baseball game in my life, I must've been about 6, we had hotdogs & peanuts. Now our city no longer has a baseball team, er we do but it's not the big leagues. Your trip looked like you had a total blast!!

Vanilla Custard ice Cream...hmm.. different. Have you ever tried Green Tea Ice Cream?, that stuff is also rather interesting.... I really like cherry chocolate chunk. Yum. :drool5:

I have tried green tea ice cream, but it wasn't for me. Now the vanilla custard, it's delish!

Cherry chocolate chunk sounds yummy.
