got my new swimsuit for aquafit last night, ordered it from the sears catalogue, 2 sizes and I'm happy to say I sent the bigger/larger size back. Aquafit starts next week, I signed up for 2 nights a week, Mon/Wed. and I'll start adding some of my DVD workouts to the mix too.

My boss has just let me know so I won't be blind sided my a certain control freek that I'm likely going to be moving back over to the old location I was in before *giddy up* could this day get any better?

Love how this is broken down (Pregnancy without Pounds)
So how exactly do you make goals that stick? The first step is to work through the 5 Stages of Goal Setting:

1. Awareness: I am aware that I need to change

2. Cognition: I know how to change

3. Emotion: I want to change

4. Decision: I have decided to change

5. Action: I am changing

fingers crossed please please let this be the month. this will be our forth time TTC and so far I'm 10 DPO and waiting to test, if I don't have my period by Tuesday and my temps keep up things will be looking good.

1: ww toast, PB, s. milk
2: 2 hard-boiled eggs + kiwi
3: veggies + dip
4: soup

5. orange + almonds

I think going with the 1 to 6 numbers follows my eating plan better, I've been eating every 2 to 3 hours the last couple of days so it looks weird to be having 2 snacks after what one might consider lunch.

I've been all over the fertility friend message boards and I've gotten some great response re: my BBT chart, things are looking good so far but I'm still waiting till Tuesday/Wednesday to test. Hopefully I can keep myself busy this weekend while my husband is down at the boat show setting up. I know I can do it!!! I have to do it I don't want to get a false + or - because I didn't wait long enough. grrrr

got on the scale this morning and it said 216. I'm waiting to see if we where successful at TTC this month so I try to take the scale with a grain of salt (of course seeing 218 got my ass moving) but with women I guess I figure the scale is going to move around with our cycles and such. maybe its just an excuse I keep tell myself though.

breakfast: ww toast, PB, s. milk
snack: 2 hard boiled egg, 8 shrimp + sauce
lunch: last nights left overs
snack: veggies and dip + kiwi
dinner: swiss chalet 1/4 chicken w/fries
snack:

water: 60 fl.oz.

for Christmas my husband gave me beautiful ring, one that I wanted when we had our first child. as we are still in the 2 week wait period to see if Santa left us with the most precious gift of them all I'm trying to do what I've always said I would do, eat as though I was/am pregnant. New years eve I scarfed down the last of the cheeses I had bought, chocolate is all gone and more salads and veggies being prepared.

Last night I made the "waist" management soup. Want to try and stick to that eating plan to bring down the bloating, clean me out my system and get things moving again. ah yeas again, I have a bit of dislike for that word.

breakfast: ww toast, PB, s. milk
snack: strawberry yogurt
lunch: soup
snack: 3oz bbq steak
snack: 12 shrimp + 1 c. veggies w/dip
dinner: sausage and peppers with spaghetti
snack: -

water: 64 fl.oz.

Thursday, September 20

Here I am again, little heavier and once again wanting to loose the weight. I keep wondering when it will finally click... but I think slowly but surely I'm getting it.... the idea that I can't jump on the bandwagon for a few weeks and then resort to eating poorly or let my workouts fall off track, I need to just put my nose to the ground keep at it and not expect anything other then feeling better and know in my heart that the weigh loss will follow.

today TOM is here and the scale this morning read 209!!!! 209!!!! but when I was on it on Tuesday it was only 206 as I listed in week 1.

biggest thing at this point is really and truly starting to act/think/pretend I am pregnant! I want to become pregnant and now I need to really get my mind around that so I'm being better to myself so I can be better able to enjoy growing/carrying a healthy baby for 9 months.
