Day 0007

This is the picture of the day from Thursday.

Kate & the dogs in bed sleeping.  You can barely see the dogs.  This is one of the problems with using my iPhone to take pictures. 

Day 0008

Here is today's picture.  Yesterday's picture is on my computer at work. 

This photo is captioned, the foster cat has got to go.

My Eye

So my tear duct is obstructed and my left eye has stopped producing tears.  I am on antibiotics for 14 days.  She thinks it should clear up in 7 days.  But it might not.  The swelling is pretty bad and hurts.  It hurts to have my glasses on now too and is tender under my eye.  The eye itself is dry.  So I am going to watch an episode of Castle and head to bed.  Oh yeah, still need to take a picture for today. . . I will be posting a few pictures over the next couple of days. . .

Template Help

Apparently, you can't leave comments because it won't give you enough room to type in the verification code.  If there is a blogger template expert out there, who'd like to help out, let me know please.
Thanks.

Almost went to bed . . .

I almost went to bed without blogging. Tonight I had yoga and I am
feeling extra tired. I did get a picture today and yesterday. I'll
post them tomorrow. Tomorrow afternoon I get to find out what is wrong
with my tearduct. I don't really have anything to report. Tomorrow I
will need to get going on some goals.

Lunch

Today's lunch had 473 calories.  Yesterday's lunch had 1,120 calories.  Today is much better.

Update: I am hungry already.  It is 1 p.m.   I ate my sandwich at 11:30 a.m.  Another 400 calorie sandwich would be a bad idea.  But I could do some cheese and crackers. . . .

BzzzKit!

Today my Softsoap bzzkit arrived!  I love my bzzkits!  In exchange for testing, commenting on, and sharing products, I get cool free stuff in the mail.  This time it was the Softsoft(r) Brand Nutri Serums samples.  I have 4 little Moisture Retaining Omegas 3 & 6 and 3 little Restoring Vitaman E.  I have $1 off coupons and some "ChatThread" cards (little cards to let you know what Softsoap wants me to tell you about the product.  You can become an bzzagent @ http://www.bzzagent.com/.

I am off to a hot bath and then to bed.  I will let you know what I think of the Nutri Serums.

Here is today's picture of the day:

Weigh-In Dates ~ 69. Track my weight 3 times a week.

Week 1
10/05/2009

Yoga

Part of the 3. Lose 80 pounds is this yoga class I'm taking at the local Y.  It is normally once a week but I missed last week so I am going twice this week.  This class is kicking my ass. Tonight was night one of this week.

3. Lose 80 pounds

Reaching this goal will not be easy. And it will take some time to achieve. So I am starting today.

People who keep food diaries lose more weight and keep it off longer (as long as they are keeping up with the diaries). I am lazy. I use sparkpeople.com's food tracker because it is easy. It has many foods already in there plus you can use the nutrition data from others or enter your own. The site also has a fitness tracker that can tell us how many calories you have burned. I am tracking everything I eat on sparkpeople.com. I even their free iPhone app to help with this.

I am also drinking 96 ounces of water a day.

My goal with this part of the project is to become healthier in incremental steps so that these changes will stick.
