We had a wonderful day yesterday until it was time to leave. We went to the city pool to see some of the girls that were working at the gym. They got a summer job at the pool as a lifeguard and swim instructor. They got the kids out there doing so much more than they would ever let me talk them into. But for a seven year old boy having all this attention from a college girl and a four year old girl getting to hang out with the big girls they were putty in their hands. We were at the swimming pool for 4 or 5 hours. 3 of those I just laid out watching them, and still don't even have a tan line on my legs from my swimming suit, my back got burnt but nothing on my legs. Well lets get back to diet talk.

Food For Thought
I fixed french toast this morning for me and the kids. I think it was the first time Chelsea ever had it, she was asking a lot of questions about it. I figured it would be a good way to get protein in with my carbs, without drinking milk. I think we are having witch's brew for lunch with carrots. I am baking brownies to take a few with us for snack at the park this evening. I was thinking about peanut butter and jelly for the kids and tuna for me if we still have some for sandwiches to take to the park for a picnic dinner. I will report later with what I actually get in today.

Burn Baby Burn
I plan on getting the church cleaned today, cleaning out the stalls, playing at the park with the kids. I need to put in a whole days worth of deep cleaning on my house but I don't see that happening yet. I need somewhere to ship them off to before I can get that done.

TOM is approaching and I am starting to see the water weight gain again. I just get so down when I start seeing the loss and then overnight I jump up again. I feel like I am never going to see a significant loss if I am constantly just trying to lose the last gain before I gain again. I haven't been as diligent about working out as I had before and I know that has slowed my loss down as well. But I was working my tail off and not seeing big results and I got bitter. I now have to wait until I can afford my membership again, mine expired yesterday. I did lose some from yesterday but not a lot. I guess that is what I should be wanting is not the big losses but the small ones that add up. But I also don't want the big gains. When I gain 1.4 pounds overnight it is hard to not want to lose it overnight as well. I really got down when I pulled out a pair of pants I wore last year and have had for several years and I couldn't get them over my thighs. I wore a size 4 this time last year and was feeling pretty good about myself. I went from a size 12 to a size 4 in less than two months, kept it off for 2 years and in less than a year gained it all back and then some. I know I have to keep my weight for 7 years to avoid the big gains again but I didn't realize how easy it was going to be to gain it all back either. Well I now have to rethink this diet and exercise thing and figure out what I did before that is different than what I am doing now, and what I need to look at changing. I hope everyone has a wonderful day.
