a day late!

I know I am a day late. I had planed on writing last night but then A did not feel like going to bed at bed time so she was up till 11. No she was not  playing but laying on my chest as I watched Sister wives. We had already spent an hour up in her room with me on the floor but she was not having any off it. Just not settling down.  But she finely ended up falling asleep and I got to watch my show.
This week really did not do much ha what's new! On Sunday I did weed part of my parents garden. That has to count for something. I did 10 rows. There are 31 left if that gives you an idea of size of garden. Not your normal size yard garden! I am sore today but it felt so good to get that done and it looks so nice. I really just want to go do some more maybe on Thursday I will go get some more done.

I also did not get time to weigh myself. So I did that tonight after A fell sleep (on time :) ). I am at 333.1 tonight!!!! So another 2.8 gone!!! Let's see what happens next week.

lost another.

I am now at 335.9. Not a lot this week but you know what I am happy it went down again.  I was lazy this week and eat bad! I had pop about 4 of them. But I am not a huge pop drinker as much as I once had been. So yes I gave up pop but now it's back again but really I don't drink a ton! If you get what I am saying. I will say this I will not buy a case of pop ever again unless it's for a party. I also eat bad this week so yeah but still I am down another pound so it's all good! Have a great week all. This week I will be trying to work out a little more at night.

Week 1 done

So this week was the start of things and it came with a set back. I did something to my knee while at work. I was just walking in the freezer and it did something. So I have not do a lot of exercise this week. I have been eating better which must have done something. Today I weighed myself and it said 337.3! Still a big number but you know what IT DID NOT COME ON IN ONE DAY, SO IT WON'T COME OFF IN ONE DAY! I am just happy it has gone down and that it's not more!!!


On another nowt. A went to her dad's this weekend. Wait I don't think I told you guys he came back to town and is again working with me... (yeah lots of fun not!). He sees A when I works for him. She is not his top priority sadly. I want him in her life but I just wish he would see her more regularly. So any who. He took her till Monday. Trade off was very hard I was in tears as he put her in the car seat. She was kicking her feet and crying and telling me to sit next to her. I broke down once I shut the door. I can't wait to get her back tomorrow!

hello again

So it's been awhile. Ok it's been almost a year!!! OMG wow. So I have came back cause I want to redirect my blog into a weight loss blog(yeah I know yet another weight loss blog). I just think I need a place to come and talk about what I am doing where I it's public but yet no one is really reading it. If you are reading it that is GREAT!!! My true goal is to be half of what I am today. I want to at least be in the 100's!! I want to be able to take A to Disney land/world by the time she is 6 which is in 4 years!(how sad!!!). My goal with this blog is to try and post my updates and my eating habits and what I want to change and how I am going to try to change my lifestyle! I want to weigh myself once a week.

This is me at my heaviest I will ever be. Today I weigh 341.5. I will NEVER weigh this again!!!


My first goal is to stop drinking pop again. I did it a few years ago but I started up again. The hardest part of this goal is going to be lunch at work cause pop is a quarter for a can. I should/need to drink more water which is a quarter too. The other hard thing is going out to eat. Why can't milk be included in the price of a meal not just a pop or why can't I get refills free!! Or how about being treated nicely about ordering just water from the waitress cause now I did not spend more so they could get a bigger tip(I have had this happen before!)  I have about 6 cans left here at the house. Once they are gone that will be it for the pop.

So now for the life update. I got the house, moved in at the beginning of September. My sister moved into my basement in November. At first I was unsure about it but now I enjoy it cause we don't always hang out but she helps with A when I need it. Like if I need to mow she will watch A for me so I can get it done. O one bad about the house I happened to step on a carpet staple and it shot into my foot. I was talked into going to the dr. when it was close to a month with it in. I then found out it was something medal thanks to an x ray. I then saw a foot specialist where she told me the sad new that I would need surgery to get it out. So it was in for 2 months before I found out what it really was and man did it all hurt.  I turned 26, A turned 2!! We had a Mickey mouse party for her. We had lots of fun. Um now we are back to June where it is my busy season at work. On Friday I worked 12 hours, Saturday worked 9 hours. So if at first I am not on here on the same day every week please forgive me.

OK so I think I am done with all this tonight. Thanks for reading it all and sorry it got so long. Sorry it took so long to get back to you.

What I am excited about...

This is the start of a list of things I am excited about for moving into my new house!

1. no piss on the toilet seat(no males at the new place)
2. nothing in the house that I don't want. Like pop cause I would like to stop drinking it.
3. I saw what A can do and not do.
4. My house my rules!

I may add to this at some point cause its only 4 things right now. So we will see. Sorry its a short one today. But who cares no one is reading this any ways.

Guess what, Guess what!!!!

So sorry I have not written lately... So You know I called bank on Tuesday and he said he would call me back Wed. He called me at like 5:15 and said I WAS PRE-APPROVED!!!!!!! So I called my relater and well guess what he was busy that night. So we meet Thursday at 8:15. Put in the offer and then got a call back on Friday night at about 5. They ACCEPTED it!!!! So closing date is Aug. 30th. That date can't come soon enough. I am so excited for me and A. I am already planning on how to do her bedroom.
I just am so proud. You know people look down on you as a unwed mother( and to tell the truth I used to too. I never thought I would be here.). So knowing that I will soon own a home is so exciting and I know this is the best for us. I am so proud to be doing this alone and am able too. I am not on welfare. I get 83 bucks every two weeks from A's dad. I am only on WIC. I have a full time job. I pay for daycare. Yes right now I am at my parents which was nice cause I was able to save money. Yes my mother does watch A after daycare so she is only there for 8 hours instead of 10 and on Saturdays.  Plus with my work hours(10 to 6) she would need to go to a different one as mine closes at 6. Plus I work a lot of overtime on Fridays.

So that's my exciting news. What I have already learned from home buying is its a big waiting game. You wait for the bank to pre-approve, then you wait for an answer on your offer, then you wait for closing date. Wait wait wait!!!!

Getting tough!

So today I had off from work cause I switched days cause we have lots of wedding cakes for Friday which means lots to do on Thursday and cause we down a decorator(she's on vacation) I am going in Thursday. So today our town had a job fair for kwik trip I decided to go cause what is there to lose. It went well but does not look like I could be paid as much as I would like. I want to make the same as I do where I am now. I guess I would take a little less due to the fact that I would not be driving half an hour to work. I guess I will see what happens.

next note- You all know I am waiting on the bank to tell me that they pre-approved my loan that I am looking for to get the house I want. Well I emailed him Friday and I think I called too. I did not hear back. Well today I called again. I called at 2ish. Left a message. I then waited till 4. I emailed him. Saying that I need an answer soon. I have waited my 10 days not counting weekends and 4th of July. I understand he is busy and he has other customers as well but I want to know what is going on. I also told him I would love a phone call but would take an email. I also said that maybe I should of gone with a local bank in town.
Well boy did that get a fire under his butt!!! He called less then 10 mins. after I sent my email. He sounded very frantic, kind of scared to lose me.  He told me what happened with my paper work. It was to go to 2 places and it only went one place. He also said he contacted the person in charge of the loans and told her how upset I am and we need an answer asap!  He also reassured me that I chose the right bank. He also asked about how to reach me tomorrow cause the last few times we have played phone tag. I told him I work tomorrow but he can call me there. He said he will be calling me tomorrow. O and he also said there should be no reason that it would be a no!!! So hopefully maybe I will be also calling my relater and putting in an offer on a house!!!*as long as no one has bought it*

Goodnight. Anyone out there reading this yet???  comment please! Thanks
