Another Loss to Report…..

Hello party people! Katie here, with an all new Weight Watcher’s update. Since “grazing” my way through the Magic Kingdom, and putting on a TON of weight, I can happily say that I had another loss today!

Woo HOOOOOOOO!

I weighed in -3.6 lbs less than last week! It brings my grand total to -9.4 lbs since recommitting myself to the program 5/29/2006.

Here’s a ticker for those of you that miss them….

I’m Finished!

Phew…finally! I am all DONE! I took my Certified Loan Signing Agent class today and I passed the (fairly difficult) exam! I am now a member of the Association of Professional Notaries and Certified Signing Agents and National Notary Association. I have completed all of the steps for starting my notary business, and all I have to do is wait for my bond, go to the County Clerk’s office, perform my oath, and whalah! I can notarize away! Any of you mortgage peeps out there, please keep me in mind, as I am now a starving notary after the hundreds of dollars I just forked out to start all of this! You wouldn’t believe the amount of stuff required to start your business! It’s definitely not just a matter of a stupid stamp and a signature.

Anyhoo, I am done, I am tired of studying, and I am just plain exhausted. Of course, it’s back to work at Allstate tomorrow. I seem to have forgotten I have a regular full time job! I have 100 signing companies to start advertising my services to beginning next week, so please pray my fingers don’t fall off!

And the yo-yo slows down…

Wow! Can I just say I’ve been like a roller coaster, a yo-yo, or maybe a lightswitch? My weights have gone up and down like nobody’s business! I’ve been on program, off program. On program, off program…you get the picture! I can’t believe after how much effort and work I put into losing weight, I allowed myself to gain steadily over the last few months! I weighed in at 235 lbs on May 29. I should be shot! This has to do with sheer neglect to be honest. The “oh just this one time” got the best of me. I unfortunately ate the wrong foods way more than just the one time. I ate my way through Disneyland a few times in May while Anna and Dorian (my sister-in-law and nephew) were visiting from Italy. Lots of dining out, desserts, and fast food.

Well, the fat stops here! I’ve been back on Weight Watchers hardcore since May 29, and I have successfully lost 5.8 already. Heck, that loss was just my first week. I’ve cheated a few times this week just to see if I’m losing, and woo hoo, I’ve lost about 3 more! I’m back with avengence baby! I’m logging my points, trying to get in more exercise, and eating healthy, low fat foods. I’m also keeping in touch with my WW peeps on the boards, which helps tremendously when you’re trying to become a big loser!

I’m adding in a picture just so y’all can see what a moo I’ve become again! Cheers! (Harrisburg, PA 5/6/06)

So far, so good…

I have recorded another loss this week since “rejoining” Weight Watchers. I still prefer to call my little stent a “hiatus”. A Holiday Hiatus, that’s more like it! Anyhow, I have lost the weight I gained over my little holiday, and I am still blazing on. It’s been awesome getting back on program….Now, if I could only get myself to exercise more

Happy Monday everyone!

I’m Back and Ready to Roll!!!!!

After taking a small hiatus for the holiday season, I am back, and ready to continue LOSING! I have been back on program since January 9, 2006, and had an AWESOME weigh in. I am down -5.2 lbs today! Unfortunately, those 5.2 lbs are the ones that I had GAINED over the Christmas holiday up in Utah. I guess eating what you want doesn’t always bring the best results in the end.

Christmas was wonderful; had a fabulous time in Utah with my family. The weather was cold, there wasn’t much snow, but it still makes a more wintery scene than Southern California; because 80 degree weather and egg nog is just not my cup of tea.

Below is the most recent picture I have of Josh and I where we aren’t bundled up in tons of winter clothes. This was his 33rd birthday on Dec 17, 2005 at Tokyo Wako in Long Beach.

Happy New Year and many blessings to everyone for a happy and healthy 2006!

ROXY IS MISSING!

I came home from work today and Roxy was GONE! Josh and I can’t find her anywhere, we checked the yard to see if she might have gotten out through the fence, and nothing. We believe she was taken through a window that wasn’t locked in the house. PLEASE, keep us in your prayers…she means the world to us, and we are having a really difficult time dealing with the fact she might not come home. I have left a message at the Long Beach Animal Control, we have walked up and down the neighborhood all night, have driven up and down all the alleys, and no sign of her. Just all of her little toys are left in the backyard….that’s all we have to remind us of her right now. The shelter doesn’t open again until Wednesday, and I don’t know how I am going to make it the next day and a half without knowing if she was picked up. The worst scenarios keep running through my mind, and I can’t handle this at all. Please pray for us…please.

We would have been taking her up to Utah in two and a half weeks to spend her first Christmas with us.
