Ordinary Changes?

I haven't posted since June 30 and we've been kind of busy since then.

July 1, I did join Weight Watchers (yea me) and starting weight is 234.4 (yuck) but enough is enough. I will be weighing in on Monday nights. This will keep me accountable over the weekends.

The first weekend we went to Ft Worth with the Lone Star Cowgirls. We had a great time and got to visit with Deanna, Becca, and Dustin. It was really good seeing them. We did alot of walking in Ft Worth going to the horse show, hanging out in the barn with the cow girls, we also visited the Civil War Museum and also a big flea market.

I watched what I ate even though we were in a hotel for 4 days and ate out every meal and it paid off. At weigh in on July 7, I was down 5.2 lbs! woo hoo!

2nd weigh in was July 14, and I was down another 2.8 lbs for a total of 8 lbs in 2 weeks! I'm so excited.

I've started using the treadmill at work and getting more and more exercise. The 15th and 16th I walked 1/2 hr at lunch. I ran into a couple of women from my department there and I hope at some point I'm able to join them in the class they take.

Yesterday, the cowgirls were in a parade so we went to help them and watch. We ended up riding in the truck that's in front of them and played their music. That was fun. But, it was so hot!

Donnie and John went to back to John and Vals but the rest of us stayed at the Watermelon Festival and looked around. Tried to do well with eating but while I feel I made health choices, didn't get my 8 healthy's in. I'll do better today.

Also, Valerie let me ride on Mylie! She rode Freckles and we walked around their neighborhood. It took 45 minutes but was so much fun. She thinks I'll be able to ride in a parade with them in September. I'm looking forward to that.

Ok, well, I'm going to clean up our flower bed, do laundry, homework, watch the race and hope to get some cross stitching in too!

Have a great ordinary day!
