I started planning a new quilt today, one for our bed finally. I'm really debating over what kind of quilt to do, but I think I finally settled on what I want to do and how many blocks I need to do... Nothing too special, but I think I've bitten off more than I can chew. I have the fabric, I have the measurements. I think I'll start next year.

It's nice to see the weight falling right back off. I need to remember to eat that @$#&*@ bran.. hate that stuff. I need to make the muffins. It's the only way I can eat it and smile while doing so!

So... we have some pretty big changes coming in the next 2 weeks. We are SO excited about them, but can't write about them yet! Darn it... I'm so bad a keeping secrets.

I've been working today on a menu for the next week. I need to get all my shopping done tonight so I have time to sew when I get home tonight and clean a couple of rooms that I have been ignoring. And I need to make a halloween costume for Brenna sooner than later. And Curt needs a hair cut. What else can I add to that list? It only going to be worse before it gets better.

I'm up even more from yesterday's morning weight. And I was actually pretty well behaved yesterday and I had diarrhea all day long too. Crazy... Anyways.. for months and months I've HATED the 170's. Now, those 160's make me want to groan!!! I work the next 4 days, so does Curt. So my plan, which makes it Curt's also, is to be pure protein for the next 4 days. Curt is finishing up leftovers out of the frig so he will start tomorrow. It's so much easier to do pure protein when I'm working. Only... I'm craving more stuffed green peppers. I love them!!!! LOVE THEM!! All I can think about it eating them right now!

DAY 65- CRUISE PHASE- TUESDAY, OCTOBER 25, 2011

So today, I'm just going to blog.. We have had a bad week. We have been out of town and that's not a great excuse, but that's how it was. We went hunting and were eating most of our meals on the road. But we're home and we're going to start over again. I can tell you that in the last 10 days, I have put on more than 6.5 lbs which is kind of surprising. We walked quite a bit and up some of these hill that would blow most people's minds! And Curt made me realize how much our abs got workouts while I was driving. Not sure what that says about my driving, but I don't always driving slow. So after he said that, we went down this crazy, bad road. It was full of ruts and twists and turns and COWS! And when we came off that road, we both relaxed and could hear our stomachs say, "Ahhhhhhhh!!!" Anyways, I got to thinking about it and I'd almost be willing to bet that I can count how many liters of water I drank in the last week and a half is less than 10, close to 5. I realized that I am not able to just splurge on food. A little cheat here and there may be ok, but not every single meal. The funny thing is, I kept thinking, "This isn't too bad, not perfect, not not horrible!" When every meal is that way though... not good.

DAY 55- CRUISE PHASE- Saturday, OCTOBER 15, 2011

DAY 55, OCTOBER 15, 2011

CURT: GAIN: 0.2 lbs TOTAL LOSS: 23.0 lbs
JAMIE: LOSS: 1.6 lbs TOTAL LOSS: 18.0 lbs

Breakfast:
C: eggs and ham
J: 2 eggs and ham (11:00 am)

Lunch:
C: chicken, 2 muffins, steak
J: steak, 2 muffins (loving the chocolate ones) and 2 oat bran muffins (4:30 p.m.)

Dinner:
C and J: lettuce wrap hamburger

Water:
C: 4 quarts of water
J: 2 quarts of water

A new low!! I'm pretty excited. I know that my schedule of eating is bizarre, but I like to make sure that Curt and I eat at least one meal together. And dinner is my favorite meal to eat together. I was craving hamburgers today... you know, with all the fixings! So, we decided to make lettuce wrap burgers... yummmmmmm....hamburgers...... (I think I just channeled Homer Simpson) We've been staying pretty pure protein the past few days, but veggies sound pretty darn good!

AND.... My ex has entered the running for biggest jerk of the year!! I'm not going to go into a lot of detail here, but he grounded my 13 year old daughter... THRU FACEBOOK! Now, I get that she supposedly lied... I read the whole conversation and can't see where she lied, but that's beside the point. Use a little decency and ground her in person. Not in front of all of her friends. He should have just called a school assembly and do it there! So if she lied, fine... she deserves to be grounded, but not the way she was. So I commented on his Facebook comment, knowing I was opening a can of worms. (**I really hate Facebook, to the point I haven't been on there in MONTHS. So I really stepped out there to even sign on and do this.) I just said what everyone else was thinking. He called me, yelling and screaming. He wouldn't even let me get a word in. I would talk and he would start yelling, "BLAH, BLAH, BLAH!" I did hear him make a comment about a "united front." You know... that ship sailed long ago. If he wanted a united front, he wouldn't interrupt with disrespect and listen instead, because believe it or not, I agree with him, just not how he did it! But he'll never know that... unless he reads this blog and let's hope he doesn't!

DAY 54- CRUISE PHASE- Friday, OCTOBER 14, 2011

DAY 54, October 14, 2011

CURT: GAIN: 1.2 lbs TOTAL LOSS: 23.2 lbs
JAMIE: LOSS: 2.6 lbs TOTAL LOSS: 16.4 lbs

Breakfast:
C: ham and eggs
J: Chicken fajita omelet

Lunch:
C: chicken, 2 oat bran muffins
J: 2 oat bran muffins

Dinner:
C:
J: piece of steak, oat bran cookies, baked pork skins

Later Dinner:
C and J: fiesta lime chicken

Water:
C: 3 quarts water
J: 20 oz diet coke, 1.5 quarts of water

Nothing is new. It's the same old thing, over and over again. Same old people we have to deal with and of course the same old crap with them. Sorry for my mood. I'm so sick of stuff right now... parents, exes, work, life.... yep... I'm in a foul mood. I'm wishing people wouldn't talk to me and ask stupid questions. I'm wishing for everything to go my way, everyone to think the same way we do or at least TRY to understand where we're coming from and for crap's sake, why we feel this way. I can't understand why people can be closed minded or just down right BLIND to the facts or even better.. why can't they realize that they are in fact in the wrong. I also can't understand why some people are just down right idiotic. I wish people could understand that they betray both of us with actions that they feel are innocent or unavoidable or even necessary when in fact they are hurtful and make us, me in particular, feel like our feelings or thoughts on the issue just don't matter. And Curt reigns me in, which is probably a fantastic idea, and won't let me speak my mind like I want to. Imagine that feisty girl that some guy is holding back in the background with her arms and legs flailing, trying to get loose to get to someone. That's me... only I just want to be verbal. And amazingly... at this point in time, MY ex isn't included in any of these categories, but the day is young, my friends, the day is young.

Let me sleep on it. Things, as usual, won't change, but maybe I won't have such a dark cloud over my head in the morning.

Thursday, October 13, 2011

DAY 53- CRUISE PHASE- Thursday, OCTOBER 13, 2011

DAY 53, October 13, 2011

CURT: LOSS: 2.6 lbs TOTAL LOSS: 24.4 lbs
JAMIE: GAIN: 3.2 lbs (from Sunday) TOTAL LOSS: 13.8 lbs

Breakfast:
C: Roast and 2 eggs
J: 2 eggs, 1 ham steak, 20 oz black coffee w/ SF raspberry syrup

Lunch:
C: Chicken strips
J: Roast beef

Dinner:
C: Steak, key lime oat bran muffin, chocolate oat bran muffin, oat bran cookie
J: Steak, orange creme oat bran muffin, chocolate oat bran muffin, oat bran cookie

Water:
C: 3 quarts water
J: 2 quarts water, 1 can cherry coke zero

Forgive me blog buddies... we have sinned. ALOT. While I'm paying dearly for it, Curt has reached a new low! I'm a little surprised I'm up as much as I am considering how sick I was yesterday. I had diarrhea ALL day long yesterday. It was bad enough that my clients and I had to stay home all day long. I couldn't get a replacement, so I just suffered. Anywho... I'm going to do Pure Protein for the next 4 or 5 days to get myself back on track. I'm sad. I love eating my veggies.

So this whole little thing called fall hits and causes life to hit a roller coaster. I've found the need to raise alot of money. So I started sewing again... AS MUCH AS I HATE IT. It kills my back and just brings back awful memories. I honestly sit and stew over grudges that I hold when I sew. THAT is another story for another day. But... as much as I hate it, it's a catch 22. I know that any time that I want to make a little money fairly quickly, I can sew and get it. Anyhow, this is the time to go all in. It's October and since my sewing revolves around costumes, I can make a killing making Halloween costumes. So we've been sewing. ALOT. And then, after we have sewed a big chunk of the day away, it's just easier to grab something on the go. I know... not a great excuse, but that's why.


I learned an interesting fact today while watching the Today Show. It was talking about people who brush their teeth more than twice a day and how it actually does harm. But the big one was this: If you brush your teeth right after drink orange juice, you can actually brush off the enamel off your teeth.

So I'm about ready to head to bed and I weighed in because I was morbidly curious as to how bad tomorrow was going to be. I'm already 0.8 lbs lower than this mornings weight.

I made chocolate oat bran muffin, key lime pie oat bran muffins and orange creme oat bran muffins and oat bran cookies. I think they all turned out great. Remind me why I don't make these more often??

YaY!! 2.8 lbs lost... if only it hadn't come through vomiting and diarrhea. I'm gonna guess that number is going to pop right back up once I can start keeping food down again. I was planning on working out today, but you know... when it feels like you got punched in the stomach, working out just doesn't sound good. Tomorrow.. we have a racquetball date before Curt goes to work. I feel better now. I managed to drag my butt out of bed and away from football long enough to get the kitchen clean and the laundry caught up, and boss the kids around to get the rest of the house clean.

Curt worked today and had to be in Boise by 7 so he was rushing to get up and out of here this morning, so no breakfast. Those darn early mornings suck.

J: 4 quarts of water

Up... again! But I didn't have the chance to really get moving before I weighed in. I hate to get up and just weigh in. If I get up, walk around a bit, get my body moving, I tend to be down a little more. Oh well... I'm not going to get up at 5 am just so my weight can be a little lower. I think I'll take Curt's attitude on this. It's just a number. I'm not going to let it ruin my day because even if I'm up today, I'll be where I need to be in the next couple of days. I obviously fluctuate so I shouldn't be blown away by a gain here and there. I'm still lower than I've been in months, years and that's a GREAT!! I've noticed the past few weeks that I haven't had that "I want food right now" feeling! I've been waiting til I got hungry. I've even had to make myself eat because I just wasn't hungry, normally from drinking all day long.

I'm a little excited about dinner tonight. I used to make Pizza Soup years ago. It calls for macaroni but I'm obviously not putting that in! It's football tonight, maybe people are coming over. I haven't heard for sure or not. But this is easy and delicious. I made pizza last night for the girls here and the smell of the pizza almost killed me! I decided right then and there that I need that pizza-like fix soon. I'm going to start making more muffins. We both like them, they're easy to make, and even better, they're easy to grab when I'm hungry and don't have time to fix something. Tomorrow? Probably Sunday??

Sewing... Briyanna.... ugh... The sewing hurt my back like you wouldn't believe. A reminder why I quit sewing in the first place.... And Briyanna... oh my goodness... that kid walked thru the door and talked non-stop til I finally locked myself in our room tonight.

So tomorrow.. interesting day. Its Briyanna's last cross country meet, districts to be specific. I'm taking Brenna with me to the meet because my mom is going... meaning... if a kid is with us, less awkward moments. See... my mom doesn't know that Curt and I are married yet. Well... that may not be true. My cousins and aunts all know I'm married which means my mom more than likely knows that I'm married but she won't say that she knows and I won't tell her that I am. But we wear wedding rings around her and it's obvious we're together. It's such a long story. Someday I'll tell the story of he emotional role my mom plays in my life. I figure my brother is going to get mad at me eventually and tell my mom to get attention off of himself. Family... somedays I just want to move far, far away. Anyways, it will be interesting.

I'm about ready to go to bed and weighed in and I'm just 0.2 lbs up from this morning's weight so that makes me happy.

WOOHOO!!! I hit another goal: my first stone (14 lbs)!!! I was going through my closet and cleaning out clothes, things I wouldn't wear anymore. And I found piles and piles of clothes (Hello... my name is Jamie and I am addicted to buy clothes. And shoes.) that I will hopefully be wearing by the end of the year.

I was trying to decide what to make for dinner. We have mushrooms and eggplants my mom brought from California. So... eggplant lasagna?? I went to Albertsons and found fat free mozzarella cheese. Finally! I've been looking all over for FF cheese and oh my gosh... Albertsons has a HUGE selection of FF cheese. I'm a little excited for one of my comfort foods.

I decided that if I'm to ever wear a bikini again (which is HIGHLY unlikely) I will have to set a full stomach and flanks tattoo. My stretch marks from my babies are just horrible. I'm trying to decide if it is something I can handle.

We worked out butts off today. We got up this morning bright and early and went to WINCO because it's the only place that I know that sells skirt steak. We even went to the farmer's market where I got a bunch of decorative gourds, pumpkins and indian corn. Then we came home and cleaned the main part of the house from top to bottom, including spraying off the back porch and decorating the front porch with corn stalks and indian corn. We got done just as my parents pulled up to watch the BSU football game, which they won, but only because Nevada sucked. Russ, heart attack guy, came over and worked on my dryer. The heating element broke so we have had to dry our clothes on the clothes line all summer. My fingers and toes are crossed, hoping it works.

Be proud of us! We behaved stunningly today. My mom brought over chicken salad sandwiches and caramel popcorn. I think that Curt snuck one piece of the popcorn and that was it! And once again, the Cuban skirt steak was OUTSTANDING! I quote Curt, "I think this is the best steak I've ever had!" And I have to agree. IT IS AMAZING! And even my dad who is not a big steak eater thought it was pretty good. Now... what to make for dinner?

I have a feeling that tomorrow.... I'm going to be up, unless a miracle happens. I weighed in just now after my shower. I'm up 4 lbs from this morning.

The phrase "Slow and steady wins the race" seems to be my weight loss motto. I'm happy with my 0.2 lbs loss day for the past 3 days. 0.6 lbs in 3 days isn't too bad. I've been catching up on blogs this morning. I think that I need to eat more. In other words... make sure I actually eat full meals. That will be much easier starting tomorrow. I have 5 days off in a row!! And I love to cook so I'm going to spend several hours cooking and preparing food this weekend for the next week and a half. It makes it so much easier when all I have to do is throw a couple things together the night before I head out to work. And if I have the kids, I have to get up 40 minutes earlier so that makes getting my meals ready even easier. Sadly... I'm looking forward to my days of cooking. We will be having several people at our house through out Saturday, but I'm going to go ahead and keep cooking while people are here.

I made chicken salad/ wrap for lunch this morning at work. I had gotten a great deal at our local grocery store on chicken breast. So as I was cutting it into chunks, one of the breasts looked weird and had a weird texture. After I cooked it, I tasted it and it was pork!! So we had chicken/ pork salad wraps for lunch. It kind of grosses me out, but... what do you do? UPDATE: Yeah... I didn't like it. I don't like pork anyways so this was just a turn off. When I say I don't like pork, I mean I don't like pork chop type pork, and I don't love sausage. Ham, bacon... I'm okay with those.

I'm annoyed today. With alot of people. And when I get this way, my stomach is a constant reminder of my irritation. Lovely fun...
