Bachelor

I don't know why I continue to get sucked into watching the Bachelor, but I do. I have been following along each week. At this point, I think the final two will be Ali and Tenley. But, I have been reading Reality Steve's blog and he has a different prediction.

Scale Back Alabama: Wk 1

Well, I managed to eat healthier items along with smaller portions with some time spent on the elliptical at night. During this week I did suffer from a migraine and migraine "hangover" the next day which impacted my workout schedule for two days. Plus, I have my husband (aka the hungry monster from the weight watchers commercial) making bacon, eggs and orange rolls for breakfast. But, one week into the program I have lost 3 lbs!!! My target goal is 10 lbs, but I would prefer 15-20 lbs.

Thanking My Husband

Yeah, this weekend my husband bought me the New Moon soundtrack!!!! Listening to it as I drive, I mean creep and crawl along 280, to work.

I want that!

I heard on the news that Helena will have a recycling program with Allied Waste where you can get rewards points to places like Publix, Bed Bath and Beyond and other retail places based on the amount of recycling one does. I am so jealous!!!!

Scale Back Alabama

This year I am participating in the Scale Back Alabama program where you aim to lose 10 lbs in 10 weeks. I'm on a team with two co-workers and my husband. I'm not really planning on some crazy diet plan so I am more focused on eating healthier items, portion control and exercise. I have started on the elliptical for 30 mins twice this week. My knees are killing me!!!

Now on tv . . .

I'm am so excited to see that Twilight is finally on the tv movie channels!!!! Now, I don't have to constantly dig out my DVD. I think since this weekend, I have caught pieces of the movie three different times and I always stop when I run across it as I channel surf. Love it!!!!!!

Keeping Up My Resolution

So far so good! We have been rinsing out our cans and plastic bottles along with saving various newspaper ads that come in the mail. I have totes set up in the basement for each of the recyclable items. Plus, I have learned what plastics 1-7 means due to the fact that the place to drop off can only accept plastics 1-2.
