Hey guys! Happy 2009! Long time no real post, I know. Hopefully today will be a start of many daily weight loss induced posts :)
So anyway, I had an eye appointment today as I am having my right eye redone (or as they say “enhanced”) on Friday. If you recall I had Lasik in April of 2008 but my right eye didn’t take it. Though I see 20/20 with both eyes now, my right is definitely not where it should be so they want to see if they can fix it.
With that being said, I probably shouldn’t have driven home with a hugely dialated eye but I did, there was no way I was paying $25 for a taxi! So I left the eye place with plans of working, but with the eye being quite blurry after all of the drops, tests it went through today, that didn’t happen. Instead I did 6 loads of laundry and cleaned my apartment top to bottom for the New Year…a new beginning.
Along with the cleaning I moved some furniture so that I can use the treadmill tomorrow :) Why tomorrow and not today? I didn’t get any food in until supper and I did a lot of cleaning to make up for any exercise planned.
I am back…good eating and all. I will be exercising 5 days a week and currently will just be watching my calories until I figure out what plan I wish to follow. Right now I am thinking just plain old counting calories using trusty ol’ FitDay.
The plan for 2009? Lose 40-50lbs. In 4 or 5, 10lb increments hopefully with the help of my new scale.
Let’s see how long I can take chipper advice that will continuously pop out of the scale at me…
Life, Scale Tales
My tv in my bedroom sits on a small ikea cube table. I was thinking last night that maybe I should look at a few small tv stands to replace the table. Or…I could buy a small LCD tv (it is an older HUGE thing) and hang it on the wall. I wonder if any either of the two malls that I have gift certificates for, have a store that sells electronics in them. A nice 19″ LCD would be nice :)
Nah…I’m holding off on that $400 for a ‘congrats you lost 40lbs’ shopping spree which I hope to occur sometime in 2009 and that does not include getting ride of my 40lb tv!

I have been trying to get a site to load that Jeff has registered to raise funds for Children and Adolescents with Cancer for a bike race he is doing in 2009…it does not want to load and it is now a full day! Speaking of which I was going through my tax receipts last night and was pleasantly surprised that I had accumulated quite a few donation receipts in 2008, including, breast cancer, cerebral palsy, leukemia and cancer.
My work is now doing the donations off of pay thing starting in the New Year and now I am set up there too. Feels good to give…now if only I could get Jeff’s sponsorship page to load I can give there too!

Jeff called last night, A’s home and he says they caught it super fast and she is tons better. Everyone is home and they are celebrating Christmas tomorrow. We were suppose to do something tonight together but I told him no as he needed ‘he and the guys’ time to destress after one helluva week.
Thanks for the thoughts :)
Whatever
Well not me…now that would just be odd considering.
Jackie! Go congratulate her :)
