Down 1 lb so far...

Well, no exercise yet today, but I'm tracking my calories for day 2 on Spark People and when I hopped on the scale this morning it said I weighed 132.8. I'm sure it will be back up tomorrow, but I'm going to be excited about it while I can! =D I'll take any progress I can get!

On the hormone front, I am learning that it's not enough to take my off-brand Zoloft (OBZ =D) just every day; I need to take it at the same time every day! I learned that the hard way, but am going to try really hard to take it when I get up in the morning. It's easy on days that I eat breakfast, but some days I just don't take the time to eat in the morning. Guess I need to work on that!

On the craft front, I have a clean, organized craft room and I'm loving it! I can craft again! And have been!

On the business front, I am getting back into my business after taking last month off... I had a facial today and I'm over the $100 sales mark so far for this week. We'll see if I can make it over the $300 like I want to!

On the house front, I can't say that my house is spotless, but I made progress today and overall it's pretty good! My bedroom is still a mess, but I'm hoping to do something about that this afternoon/evening while dinner is cooking. Speaking of, I'm not entirely sure what we should have for dinner, but I'm thinking chili. That sounds good, despite the warmer temperatures today! I've got over 600 calories I can splurge on dinner / dessert (probably a jello pudding cup - I bought a plethora of flavors - 60 calories each and sugar free sweetened with Splenda!) so I can hopefully eat enough to make me feel satisfied!

I heard a quote this morning that I'm going to end with... I got up at 6 and headed over to Amber's house to listen to a conference call we've both been meaning to get around to. On the call was the following quote, and I love it. It has changed a few of the things I've done today, and I think it applies to exercise as well! Here it is...

"Procrastination is the death of dreams."

I love it!

Great quote! Boy do you have a lot on your plate. As for the meds - same time everyday is a must. As the spouse of someone who misses a dose from time to time, there is a phenomenon (sp?) called "blow back" that is terrible. Miss a dose, be really really really really really really, did I say really, crabby. I can always tell when a dose was missed, and he doesn't usually see it. So, be warned, consistent dosing is very important to your marital relationship!

Super glad for the one pound gone. Do that two more times, and you'll be close to 10% of your goal loss - as opposed to 10% of your body weight.

I'm holding you accountable - lovingly of course. So, where are you? What has the last week been like? What have you done right, and what has been a challenge, and what has discouraged you? Accountablilty partners want to know. (by the way, I'm about to go post!)
