Holy blogging kara!! I'm so glad one of us could keep up.
My weight watcher beginning is starting slow. I blame my emotional eating on that one. I need to get my damn christmas tree down and I'll feel a lot better (i miss allison).
My training session hell begins tomorrow morning w/ Coach Forlicker. She's is seriously going to kick my mutha lovin' ass!! It's okay, i need that shit.
Congrats to both of you ladies for your amazing first week loss! I've got some catching up to do :)
Holler at you bitches real soon -- can we get together while you're both off of work??

it's a hard knock life
Hey boos!
Well, I've finished grading all of my exams so far, and I have my last two classes today, so now I'm just waiting to do some more grading.
I got my new iphone yesterday and the first thing I did was download my weight watchers app. I think I did ok with points yesterday. It gets a little hard to judge how many points things are, so I'm trying to do the best I can. It was nice to see Bffl & Bffl Jr. at lunch yesterday with some of the teachers. Kristina and I did great with our lunch choices! I almost did get the 8 wings b/c it was 14 points, but I think my lunch ended up being around the same too. I had 2 turkey sliders and a caesar salad for lunch and it was so great! As badly as I wanted that mac n cheese, I want to be skinny more. Plus, there will be other days when I have more points available and hanging around that I can splurge on mac n cheese. For dinner I made myself another chicken caesar salad and then treated myself to a 4 point dessert. I did have 2 piece of caramel chocolate (thanks, Alexis Kidd!omg), but I had maybe 7 points left over, so I think the chocolate took me right to 39 points for the day.
Today is going to be a struggle though with food. I woke up and had a string cheese and some oranges for breakfast = ok good! Bryan is bringing over a smoothie for Tyler and me today during the next exam = 8 points. I am starving! Two girls gave me more chocolate today. One was a lil pack of peanut butter cups and it is only 6 points! However, I'm going to save that for tomorrow when I will have more points to use. Today I am going out with Ellen for lunch at Capital Ale House... Omg, how I love that place and how badly I want the mac n cheese, but I'm going to make smart choices. At first I was debating about what to do- just get one 12 ounce miller lite (2 points) and no food b/c I just had a smoothie a few hours ago or skip the beer and get a soft pretzel. I'm leaning towards getting the pretzel and no aclohol. I would rather eat points than drink them. I was playing around with the tracker to get an estimate on what the pretzel would be.
And then dinner is going to be another issue b/c we will be at Uptown Ally! I think I'm going to limit myself to two beers b/c I don't want to be hungover the next day or go over my points. I know I have those 49 bonus points but with stuffed shells on Monday & the potluck on Tuesday, I don't know how many of those I've actually used.
Eating out is def. my biggest struggle and trying to figure out what point values would be.
Hope you ladies are doing well & Kristina isn't too sore from Johnson-Forlicker! Love you guys! <3

glory days & weight watchers
I think the weight watchers points are already on the nutrional guide for glory days. Today when I'm looking at the nutional guide, at the top it says "unofficial points", and that # is equal to the # I got the other day when I was plugging them into the calculator. How easy! Stuff like this will help me out.
Ok, I really need to stop procrasonating!!

#teacherproblems
Starting weight watchers around Christmas time was stupid. Starting weight watchers around Christmas time as a teacher was really stupid.
Yesterday a former student brought me about 20 cookies that were all homemade, today I got a bag of chocolate & caramel, and another girl brought me chic-fil-a for breakfast. I told my students that if they wanted to eat breakfast in class, they had to bring me some. My request was 3 piece chicken mini (usually I get the 4- look, portions! lol) and a diet coke (but really, I wanted the lemonade but again, I'm not giving up extra point for a lemonade. I'd rather eat my points than drink them). I did pack myself some oranges that I might snack on a little later. And I'm about to play around with the calculater and Glory Days nutrional values to see what I should eat today for lunch.
However, yesterday was ok.... I had my orange and 24 ounces of water before 10 am again. But lunch we had an English potluck. I could have done a lot better, so I came home and had a chicken caesear salad for dinner and then a 4 point dessert. Those smart one desserts are good but it is like 4 points for 4 bites.
I need to get focused and grade so I can not worry about stuff over break! Holla!

Feeling Great!
So, I know I'm not, but I already feel skinnier...I'm in the mindset now...I've eaten healthy for the past two days, Josh has been SUPER supportive and just the fact that I'm eating better I can already feel a difference. I've slept great the past two days and I feel like my pants are already looser (but they aren't)....
...
I'm concerned about Christmas...because I am getting goat cheese...and I'll eat the whole thing....but my goal is to make good on my daily points...and save all my weekly points for goat cheese....AND....ONLY ALLOWING MYSELF CHRISTMAS DAY...not the day before and the three days after.....
ONE DAY....of blissful goat cheese eating....THAT IS ALL.
I hope it works....After Christmas, we're home free ladies...we can do this!!!
Skinny Skinny Skinny....I can't wait!
Good Luck with your workout today Buck! I'm routin' for ya, you're going to be hot!

warning: I needed to vent
I'm such an emotional eater and it is taking a lot right now to talk myself out of getting doughnuts for breakfast.
weigh in day: I think I might keep with Sunday, especially if Kristina is thinking about that day. With tennis season (and conditioning starting in January), I know I will not want to go and will not be able to go later at night. 2pm on a Sunday is right in the middle of the day, but Sunday is usually my lazy day anyway, so it'll get me out of the house for a little bit.
yesterday fucking sucked. Let me cliff note it
1. got a $1000 check in the mail. No joke. b/c I'm part Indian, there was this court case recently and we won and b/c it affected my age range (or something like that), I got part of the settlement- $1000. So, I started doing my happy dance!! yahoo new iphone, credit card, and a little shopping.
2. got a bill for $1500 and saying my mortgage was going to increase b/c somehow my homeowner's insurance went up from $479 a year to $1222 a year. So, I spent a lot of yesterday afternoon on the phone and crying to Papa b/c I didn't know what to do. In addition to it going up, it hasn't even been a year yet... I was guaranteed my rate for a year, yet it is changing this much. It was my escrow account (I still don't full understand this) and papa said it was normal for it to change $100 give or take each year, but not $1500 worth.
In situations like this, I want to eat or have a glass of wine. I told Papa I felt too guilty to buy my new phone now, but he kept telling me to go out and buy it, so that helped. And he said he was going to talk to my stepmom about some options to help me out. Literally, it was an extremely bipolar day.
Right now I have an extreme headache from not sleeping well. But let me talk about the good from yesterday in my first official weight watchers day!
breakfast: orange and 24 ounces of water
lunch: 6 point tv dinner & 2 point rice krispie treat
snack: string cheese & preportioned broccoli & cheese - both 1 point
dinner: caesar salad & stuffed shells
Ok, so I'm sure my dinner was more 29 points. I forgot to dip my salad in dressing instead of pouring it on! I also didn't eat anything past 7pm. If I can get into that habit, that would be great. Oh, and Bryan came over for dinner last night (with flowers, cue the "awwwwwwwws" b/c I warned him I was having a bad day), so I did have some physical activity and maybe earned back a point! haaa.
Kristina- did you get started with Johnson-Forlicker last night? Tyler texted me a picture of him with my BFFL Jr.!
Today's challenge is going to be the potluck the English department is having. I'm just going to have to take half the size I would usually get or skip the dessert b/c I bought some great looking WW desserts that I can snack on when I get home.
I'm serious this time, and I'm so glad we are doing this together! And I can't believe you bitches read all of this! Ya'll are the best! <3
My motivational song for the moment!

Updated my Ticker
Updated my ticker to include my 5% goal, by New Years, may be a strong one, but I'm feeling it!
I have to pee.
I've already drank 24 ounces of water since I've been at school. Big improvement for me.
Ok, time to get back to watching kids take their midterm. woo.

Weight Watechers....Meet your Maker FAT ASS
Weight: 176.2 - Fattest I've ever been in my life, need to lose 60-70lbs to be in my healthy weight range.
Total Points / Day - 26....(that's the lowest you can get apparently, so the good news is my points won't get less than that...)
Kara - those fruit cups I bought at Wal-mart are 2 points each...not 0...WTF, FAIL.
Yesterday for dinner, I made Shrimp Fried Rice, it was 8 points per serving, and pretty damn delicious...Josh even liked it! (That never happens)
I stayed within my points yesterday, even had an ice cream bar for dessert, whoop!
Today, brought a lunch, have a plan...haters gonna hate.
I can do this. Today I woke up and when I looked in the mirror, I said to myself OUT LOUD. This is the LAST MONDAY I'll ever be THIS fat....

cheers to skinny bitches
Well, I made sure to splurge today b/c I need to get my shit together for real this time. If only I burned calories every time I complained about my weight, I would already be a skinny ass bitch.
Here it is- I'm 238.2. fuck. I get 39 points a day. For my height, I should weigh between 135-169. I want to be at 150-160; my high school weight except I want to keep my big boobs. Let's face it, I've always had the black girl booty.
What I liked about Weight Watchers:
1. Obviously, it works.
2. lots of recipes adjusted for WW
3. the calculator on the website that I just figured out how to work, thanks to BFFL
4. having the both of you (plus Bryan) to go through this with me
5. stickers. I want to earn stickers!!!
6. accountability
What I dislike about Weight Watchers:
1. my mac n cheese from glory days is 20 points
I'm not going to lie, I'm still thinking about getting it. I figure if I do my orange for breakfast = 0 points, mac n cheese for lunch = 20 points, I still have 19 points for a light dinner. Worse comes to worse, I have those 49 weekly points. I like the mathematics behind this and having to be smart to figure out points.
For tomorrow, I already peeled my orange for breakfast = 0. I packed my lunch- weight watchers meal = 6 points, rice krispy treat = 2 points, and then for dinner I'm making stuffed shells and salad. I'm sure that will be a lot of points. Originally, I was just going to do stuffed shells b/c the English department is having a pot luck Tuesday, so I would make extra for myself. BUT, I figure if I make myself a salad and have less shells, it might work out better. Plus, Bryan is coming over to taste my famous stuffed shells.
Well, I'm off to play on pinterest to find some good recipes and to play on the weight watchers website. Oh, I feel a new obsession coming on.
I'm glad we are all doing this together, so when summer comes, we will all be smoking as we lay out at Rita's pool laughing at the moms with the $400 strollers!!

need to get my shit together
I'm awake at 7am on a Saturday morning. However, I fell asleep around 11, so I at least got a quality 8 hours in. I am just going to lay in bed with Chimi for a while and at least post to keep up with you.
Food journey- bullshit. I have been eating more often than ever, even when I'm not hungry. Ya, I sometimes eat when I'm bored, but at least that is controlled. I feel like I'm just eating to be eating. Tyler and I have been going out a lot during 2nd period and this is after I already eat a breakfast, so I eat 2 breakfasts. We said yesterday that we have to be better about that. Little changes.
Rita- your plan sounds awesome!!! It is just getting started and getting into a routine. Once that happens, you'll probably start freaking out that you haven't gotten your workout in or done something when it was supposed to be done. I don't have the motivation like you. If I just took my big butt outside, I'd be ok. I'm hoping once tennis starts, I'll feel better. However, I know I shouldn't wait until February to get my butt into gear. PS- I miss you.
BFFL- You really are a one woman show and I admire you so much for that. I feel like if I was in your position (and not just with Adam, but you have a 1 month old baby), I'd be an emotional ball of mess. And I'm so happy for you that you have gotten your shit together and will be working with Johnson-Forlicker and joining weight watchers. I know you'll be so happier doing that. How do you have so much energy?! LOL
On another note, I've just been busy as a bee lately. I worked the basketball game Thursday night and I met Bryan's parents. So nervous! It's a completely different relationship than with Justin. There are some things that I miss about the relationship with Justin when I'm with Bryan, but then there are so many more things that I'm thankful for now that I'm dating Bryan. I guess it is just being in a new relationship and having to figure things out. I'm so happy that next week is exam week, so I have no school work to do this weekend! Phew!
When are you both free? We need to figure something out and have a BFFL date. Since I'm off soon, maybe Kristina and I can meet Rita at Baker's Crust again! Oh, and I'm off Friday, so maybe we can plan something for later in the afternoon if Rita still works half days on Friday.
Early New Year's resolution- getting better about blogging, even if it is just to stop by and say "what up my bitches?!"
love you both (and my BFFL Jr.!)

Top 'o the morning to ya!
It's 4:30 am....
Food yesterday-- Clementine, rice cakes, raisins, cheese, and then burger at bonefish. I don't think that was too terrible.
Wellness-- I'm going to join weight watchers today. I'm pretty determined this go around. My reasoning is that julies wedding is in may and I don't want to be the fat ugly aunt... I've got to be able to hang with the 22 yr old chippys!
Emotions- seems that I may have gotten worried about Adam for no reason. He was better with Christian. I think Rita is right in the stress thing. He and I deal with stress so differently. But I still maintain the fact that he's going to have to pitch in a lot more when I go back to work.
Holler at you girls later!

Reply to Buck - Let's DO this #NoOneToBlameButMySelf
I'm so proud of you - I have been eating like a COW...and it shows.
I've decided that I need to do this, not only for me, but for my husband, my puppy, my mom, and you guys...I know it sounds sappy and stupid, but it's selfish to eat like I eat, not exercise and not take care of myself. I've been to these funerals, I don't want you guys to have to do that...because I was a fat lazy lard ass...I'm unhappy and I'm the only one that can change my life in that regard. I have a bowflex. I have an elliptical. I have money to purchase healthy food. I have absolutely NOTHING but excuses. Yesterday I said I'd start today, today I'm saying I'll start tomorrow. BULLSHIT. It starts right now.
Plan:
Wake at 6am - Coffee/News/Karma Feed and Out
6:30a - 7:15a - Change/Stretch/Elliptical/Stretch
7:15a - 7:45a - Shower/Dress
7:45a - 8:00a - Probably Still Doing Something...#AlwaysLate
8:00a - Leave for Work
8:30 - 5:30p - Work (M-TH)
5:30p - 6:15p - Drive home
Then I MUST do the FOLLOWING:
-Fix Dinner
-Pack Lunch for Work
-Set out outfit
THEN I'd LIKE TO:
-Take Karma for a Walk
I'm going to try - starting tomorrow to stick to this for two weeks...that doesn't seem long, but in Rita world...it's HUGE.
Also - when this shitty daylight darkness shit ends, I'll be shifting back to my 7:30a to 4:30 work day so that means, getting up at 5am! Right now I figure there is no point waking up early to go to work if it's still dark when I leave at 4:30....so fuck it I'll sleep an extra hour and ease into this exercise thing so hopefully, I can actually stick with it...
Yeah teachers, shut up I know, you do that already blah blah blah...
Glad you folks are blogging again....
Also, Kristina - about Adam...we talked about this...separation of duties shit...I think you set the bar high but being all Kristina Independent, not to blame you, that's just you, but he needs to step it up. Is it that he's not helping or that he seems withdrawn from the baby...if he's just not helping I wouldn't be surprised....that's our men...if he's withdrawn, I'd be a little concerned! Consider this though...he's also been REALLY busy at work, he's under a lot of stress with his dad...not to say you aren't, but you are a CHAMP, he handles stress alot differently than you...Also, he could have just gotten his period like Josh, perhaps one day their menses will sync and we can go through this together!
Love them boys! Love you gals!
Good morning!
Well, here I am once again, up at the ass crack of dawn with Christian. I really wish he was sleeping a little longer than 3 hr. intervals. Hopefully he'll start going for longer stretches. This isn't so bad while I'm not working; it's going to suck when i go back.
Wellness- feeling pretty motivated to shed these lbs. I've cut out snacking during the day; this has helped me focus on actual meals for lunch and dinner. In the mornings I usually have a clementine or yogurt, that's healthy, right? Lunch varies from day to day and dinner is usually healthy choices. I made grilled chicken breasts on the Forman grill. I had one chicken breast and a side of rice cakes. Adam had two breasts, Brussels and a baked potato. Adam wants to lose the baby weight too!
How are your weight journeys going? Ri ri- spoke with Jillian and I think we are going to start training sessions soon. Light work outs for me until I'm fully cleared. Can't wait until I'm completely healed!
Adam- just gotta express my concern in this category. He was great with Christian for the first two weeks and now I think he's got post pardom instead of me! He acts like he doesn't want anything to do with the baby. Doesn't talk to him, hold him, feed him, or change diapers. I'm hoping this is just an adjustment phase. I'm pretty much a one woman show. I justify it by telling myself he's working and I'm not so I should be doing everything. But once I go back to work things are going to have to change. Hopefully he'll step up to the plate for that.
Okay, I'm done.
Love ya bitches!

Oh, Monday
Got weighed today at the doctor's office. Oye, I needed to look away. I took pictures with Dani this weekend- oye, moo. I need a little motivation.
Today has been some day, starting at 7am when I felt the need to text Justin about Hicks... I feel like I had more drama today than I have all week. On the plus side, I had today off for the girl doctor, but I'm in a little bit of pain b/c it wasn't a normal check-up and I'm still on my period.
I just wanted to drop by and say hey bitches. Hope ya'll had a good weekend. I'm going to need a pedicure this week if you guys want to sneak away for a little bit, I'm ready!
