MOM2JEM's Journal, 30 April 2009

Sorry I haven't written in a while. I stopped eating right. Don't get me wrong, I didn't eat junk food or fast food all the time. We'd go out to eat and I would get chicken or seafood. I would get soup also. I hadn't been exercising. First it was the spasm in my shoulder blade. Then my daughter and I got sick. Then (and this one is completely my fault) I got a memorial tattoo for my dad on the 18th. He passed away in 1989. I got it on my left arm by my shoulder. It's a Popeye tattoo. It's the one that was in the opening credits of the cartoon. The one of Popeye's face and the big star behind it. Yesterday was the first day that I could workout without it being sore during the workout. I'm already planning the memorial tattoo for my mom. I hope to get it in the next week or so. So yeah, I currently have 4 tattoos. Funny thing is, only one is truly visible. I have 2 on my back. One on my ankle and now the one on my upper left arm. Only the ankle one is visible pretty much all the time. Yeah, I'm a rebel. LOL

I'm getting back to eating right. I'm surprised that I didn't get back up to 215+ lbs. I bought a more accurate heart rate monitor watch. It seems to keep track of the calories burned more accurately because it takes into account my age, sex, and weight. The one I used to use only took into account my age and sex, not my weight. Plus, my new one is a girly pink.

I did finally but the croc wedge sandals that I wanted. I LOVE them! They're super comfortable. Since they have the croc sole, I can't tell that the heel is actually 3 inches.

Okay, enough catching you guys up. I'm off to eat breakfast and get some housework done.
