Finding ONEderland

Happy Valentines dear readers. I hope you are having a beautiful day. Mine has been an okay day...wish it had been a little warmer but it didn't quiet make it up to the high that I was seeing on my weather program. Not sure if it is suppose to get warmer still or if they just missed it big time.

Had a doctor appointment today...not sure why I scheduled it for valentines day. It went good though. Set up some goals for the future and will be back in six months and have blood work done at that time. I'm looking forward to seeing how well I have done when the next visit comes around.

Now for the subject of todays blog. I am checking out a CD called Skinny Songs. It is a CD of cool little tunes to help motivate one while they are loosing weight. I have listened to the whole CD and there are 10 different songs. It has a few different styles of music on it too...which I think is pretty cool. If you like country or pop there is a song for you. I like a wide range of music so I enjoyed listening to the whole thing.

I do have a few favorites from the album. First is the song Skinny Jeans....it's a great song. We all know how great it feels to get into a pair of jeans after all that hard work. My favorites were some Lee jeans and I working on getting into these jeans. I'll be singing this song on my way to that goal.

Another favorite is Thin! Actually it's probably my top favorite on the album. Though I do change one lyric because I am careful how I use the word diet. Let me explain that a little...it's a personal thing and my definition of diet. It is not a short time thing for me, which is what too many things lead us to believe, it is a life style change...so I just sing, "Guess I'll eat a healthy diet". But don't get me wrong I love the song and find it very motivating!

Another one I would like to mention is Blowin' You off AT 8. This song is for all the ladies that have had been in a relationship with a man that said negatives things about them because of their weight. For me that would be my 1st husband. When listening to the song I could so put myself in a little fantasy of this and talk about motivation. I love this part of the lyrics in the song.

make no mistake about what you see
I didn’t do this for you -- I did it for me

The week before was another 289.5 to have a maintain. This was the bloat week weigh-in so I am not letting it get to me. I also missed a couple days of journaling but am back at it now and that is what matters.

The sun is trying to shine today. I NEED this sunshine so much...I have felt so down the last few days with all the rain. I know we need the rain after last years drought but it sure was killing my mood to not have any sun at all. The improved mood is helping me to get little projects done all around the house.

I got some updating done to my blogroll last week. I still have a few non health blogs to get listed but I may make a separate list for non health ones. There are lots of things I would like to get done while I am doing my job hunting. Making use of the time off till I find a good job.

I do want to update the software on this blog sometime. I am just a little bit nervous about how that will go. Don't want to kill my whole sight. I will back up what I can and then do it.
