Yes, it's true, I'm sick...AGAIN! My immune system hates me. Seriously though, why don't people just stay home when they're sick. I do! I know it might be an inconvenience, but it's a bigger one when you share the crap with everyone you work with or come in contact with in public. I wash my hands constantly because I have OCD and always freak out and worry I'm going to get germs on me from "dirty" people. I'm sure I've even offended (not intentionally) some folks with my frantic searching for my sanitizer after we shake hands or exchange money/ink pens/etc. That being said, I have an appointment at the doctor's office in the morning and I pray it's not the flu again. This winter was my first round of the flu ever in my life and it about killed me. Tamiflu does help but it beats the crap out of in the process. I had a fever earlier and it broke and came back about an hour ago. YUCK! That pretty much sums up my feelings right now. Just keep praying it's anything but the flu.
On a lighter note, anyone have any new healthy snack or meal suggestions? As always, love, love, LOVE my feedback, emails, recipes, quotes, etc. You all ROCK!

I'm baaack...
I know it's been a minute, but no worries, I'm still going strong. We got all moved into the new house and it's awesome!!! I especially love having a huge fenced in backyard for the fur babies so they have some place to get the energy out. I will admit that all three are sleeping better in the new house. Skynard even got to sleep in the bed twice and didn't have any accidents (YAY)! NJ is gaining weight per the vet's request and I'm more sure every day that she is going to be a long haired doxie. Pippi is her happy lil' self and nothing phases her, as usual.
I've been working more diligently at working out and being healthy. Y'all know I'm honest and I'll say, I don't have perfect days by any means, but I'm conscious of what is good for me and I'm making wise choices about 70% of the time.
OMG...Luke Bryan's new video just came on...too much sexy for my tv set! (Side note brought to you by my ADD)
Back to what I was saying...there are days when I simply crave a soft drink too much to fight it at this point in my process. I'm sure as I move farther along, my will power will continue to get stronger. I can usually stop myself, but there are times, I know if I just have one soda, it will be a better outcome than getting upset about it later on and drinking two or three sodas and eating a cheeseburger and half a pizza, ya know? Cheating on a health plan is not always a bad thing to be honest with you. My dietician said if I crave a cheeseburger to eat the darn thing and move on from it.
I do have a new app on my phone that is pretty fabulous. It's called MyFitnessPal and anyone who has an Android or iPhone (possibly a BB too) should check it out. It's free as the number one perk and all you do is put in your food, drinks, snacks, etc. and it calculates your calories for you. You also enter how much water you drink each day and your exercises and it calculates how many calories you've burned. You tell it all of you stats and it will create a calorie plan for you to be on track to lose the weight you want in the time you want. Pretty effin' awesome if I do say so myself!
My skating addiction has been going well. I went last Tuesday and Wednesday and had intentions to go on Thursday but Robby's leg was hurting so we skipped. My goal is to go every Wednesday and Thursday night since those are my days off. If you're around here, you should join us, it's a great workout and alot of fun ($6/Wed includes all you can eat pizza and hot dogs and $3/Thurs). As a side note, I'd like to say that just because it's all you can eat doesn't mean you are REQUIRED to eat yourself stupid, which is the perception that some make.
Now, I just have to take my bike and get my tires properly inflated so I can start riding because this weather is GORGEOUS! Enjoy the intro to Spring y'all!
