7yrs. ago tomorrow!

\

November 25th, 2002. This date will forever be in our minds! This is the day that our sweet Angel went to heaven. 7 yrs. of what if's. 7 yrs. now without him in our arms! We have met alot of people through this "season" of our lifes. When I was PG with Mark Jr. it was a wonderful blessing. We had prayed for 3 years to have another baby. On November 22nd, we took the kids to an Ultrasound to find out the sex of our baby. The girls were so excited! We went in for the Ultsrasound, we saw his face and everything. The nurse said wait here. When she came back, she had us go into a room with out the kids. The Dr. was there. All I remember is him saying " I am sorry, we couldn't find his heartbeat." I was 21.5 weeks along. What do you mean you can't find the heart beat. WHY? WHAT? HOW?. I was totally lost. That night, my parents and sister came to town to be with us. On Saturday we went to the funeral home to pick out a casket for a baby that we hadn't met. On Monday, November 24th, 2002 I was induced to give birth to our Still son. It was a very long day! Induced at 9 AM and I gave birth to him at 6:14 pm.. Our first born son. Born still!

It was one of the sadest days of our lifes. Tomorrow will mark 7 yrs.

Today I pray for all the moms that are Pregnant Please take the time to hold your kids tight. God has blessed us with more than we will ever know.

Week # 5

D at the Fair! What a fun night we had!

Okay....not as well as the past weeks, but it's still a loss! I have lost a total of 15.8 lbs. Reached the 5% of my weight goal. This week I have added walking to see if it helps. The weather has been perfect for it.

These past weeks since school started have been so busy. Soccer, Softball, T-ball, Play Practice, ACT prep, ACT Test, Girl Scouts, Weight Watchers, School fundraiser, Bible study, the house and life. I feel like it's started again...the stress of a busy life. I am taking time out for me. Hanging with friends during the week and doing bible study! Loving that the kids are growing up healthy and happy.

This weeks weigh in.

Well, I lost a total of 14 lbs now. I am feeling really good about Weight Watchers. I am learning what is really good for you and what is not. It's a great program!

week #4

I have learned that I can get off track for a day and get back on. We had a grill out weekend. I ate chips and 3 cookies, went out to dinner with friends and M and I shared a meal. It was great! This week it's raining and so the walking has not been as good as it should be. Still thinking about joining the YMCA. Not sure I have the energy to go everyday! lol This week was labor day so , no weigh in. Looking forward to next Monday. I am hoping for my second 5lb star!

Week 2

Okay, not as good as week 1 but, I am at a total lose of 9.4 lbs! Which means I am on my way! I am really tired a lot this last week. I am hoping I am not getting sick. However, the 3 day weekend is before us and it's looking like GREAT weather! Hope everyone has a great one. Keep praying for my 130 lbs. of weight lose!

Week #1

I lost 5.8 lbs last week. Now, I am in the middle of week 2! Still is not bad at all. I am starting to walk and it's helping. Today, had a great lunch with friends and stayed on track!!!!!! Woohoo!

I took the first step!

Well, myself and two friends went to weight watchers last night and I joined. I am so ready to eat right and get fit! Today, is the day one on WW...I will post as it goes! No walking today, it's rained all day and all night last night! Urggg! Thinking of joining the YMCA! We will see!

Day two....well!

Well, this is day two of trying to get healthy. I have kept myself busy cleaning D's room and laundry. Had Pancakes and sausage for breakfast. 500 calories. I have 1200 left for the day! Not to bad. The walk last night made me have more energy, so, I will walk again tonight! Thanks for checking in. I will try to post at least twice a week.

Today is the end of living LARGE!

Today I went to the Dr. I checked in at 301 lbs. Yes, 301lbs. I have never been this heavy in my life! I have been saying for years that I will lose weight. I have lost 20 here and 40 here and then gain it all back.


Today is the day I will start eating right, living right! I will watch everything I put in my body that God gave me. I will only go out when I feel I can handle it and make the right choices! I will walk when I can and exercise every day!


I would like to say GOOD BYE to bad habits, GOOD BYE to all the laziness. Please pray with me about this journey! Thank you. I will keep you posted, day by day! Tonight, I am walking to the corner and back. I think it's only .83 mile! But, it's a start!!!!!
