Such a sad day in the history of the US... Many prayers for all who lost a loved one.</span></strong><br /><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;"></span></strong><br /><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;">And on that happy note... I did lose 3 pounds this week after faultering for a few weeks. I am now down 15 pounds, which makes me pretty happy! I still have a long and difficult road ahead, though.</span></strong><br /><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;"></span></strong><br /><strong><span style="color:#6600cc;">Devon and I went to see his pediatrician this afternoon. He is a GREAT doctor who is relocating to Tennessee from here in Massachusetts. I simply adore this man. He truly is one of the great physicians in the world. A great loss to my area, a great gain for Nashville, TN. We brought him a small RedSox magnetic pad of paper. I told him I hoped he'd put it on his filing cabinet in his new office and think of us whenever he looked at it/used it. </span></strong><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2963903433667497998-4426071352054856223?l=wildboyzmom.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14990387409271782490noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2963903433667497998.post-58272837985929979312008-08-14T12:24:00.000-07:002008-08-14T12:28:15.198-07:00Woohoo...<br /><br />I started on July 31st and an all-time high (which means I had gained almost 60 pounds in the past two years, but let's not think about that!) Here I am two weeks in and things are going well.<br /><br />As of today I am down 13.2 pounds. Yeah, I am well on my way. I still have a ton of weight to lose, but I am feeling good about Weight Watchers, and myself, too. I believe this is a plan I can stick with. I believe I will be successful! I believe I can follow this for the long haul.<br /><br />Yeah, me!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2963903433667497998-5827283798592997931?l=wildboyzmom.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14990387409271782490noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2963903433667497998.post-46396195881877496632008-08-10T14:48:00.000-07:002008-08-10T14:56:10.147-07:00<span style="font-family:lucida grande;">It's raining here, again! Tonight is supposed to be Beverly's Homecoming fireworks... ugh... how frustrating. Devon and I are crawling the walls waiting for it to be time to go to Lynch Park, and now it seems we will not be going after all. It has been a long day.</span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">In other news, Devon bought himself an MP3 player at Toys R Us this afternoon... it is just a cheapy, but perfect for an 8-year-old boy. He is proud of himself, and of course has loaded Soulja Boy and a few of his other favorite songs onto it already.</span><br /><br />I have not done well with being "On Program" (Weight Watchers, I mean) today... ah well, tomorrow's another day.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2963903433667497998-4639619588187749663?l=wildboyzmom.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14990387409271782490noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2963903433667497998.post-90816152301511471762008-08-09T20:36:00.000-07:002008-08-09T20:47:18.011-07:00<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sCZfdB2TIZM/SJ5kjULQaPI/AAAAAAAAAAU/pSJhD2Y72CU/s1600-h/100_2932.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5232730374925215986" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sCZfdB2TIZM/SJ5kjULQaPI/AAAAAAAAAAU/pSJhD2Y72CU/s320/100_2932.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sCZfdB2TIZM/SJ5kDwZ7o0I/AAAAAAAAAAM/kAdYo0dtyyw/s1600-h/100_2932.jpg"></a>I was off work this past week, and planned all types of activities for Devon and I to do.... Well, that didn't really pan out, primarily due to the fact that it rained just about every day. We have had more thunderstorms this week that I ever remember. We still had a great week together, though. I completely LOVE my job, of course, but it is so nice to have a whole week with only ONE small person to be responsible for.<br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>We did finally get out on Uncle Ryan's boat - which was a lot of fun. We made it back to shore just as the Thunderstorm du Jour started.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2963903433667497998-9081615230151147176?l=wildboyzmom.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14990387409271782490noreply@blogger.com0
