10 down 40 to go!

Hey there! Sorry it has been a few days. Quick catch up. Had a nice weekend. Took the kids to my nephews for his 5th birthday party and then home. Sunday we had a nice outside breakfast in Reisterstown and then spent the day cleaning/gardening/grilling. It was nice...with a nice nap in between. I also ran 1.5 miles on Sunday around the neighborhood.

Still taking my Zoloft daily although it makes me feel pretty crappy---some days more than others. Like today for example...I was fine (well a manageable level of nauseousness) until I had some pizza. It was all down hill from there. Even the thought of food or drink makes me want to toss it. It also makes me really really tired. There is so much I want to get done....but I have also come to the realization that I need to let this medication get in my system and level off and then I will be able to get everything done. I have to listen to my body on this one and the rest will follow. The symptoms have been getting better but as I said some days are better than others.

Besides the after pizza time I had a good day. My thinking is clearer and so much more positive. I worry less and less about the little things and focus on the things that I can change. Isn't that how it is supposed to be.

The best news came when I went to the doctor today and low and behold I am 10 lbs down from about 3 weeks ago. I have lost 20% of the amount of weight that I want to lose. That is AWESOME and I am pretty proud of that fact. I have been exercising at work when I get a free moment here and there. Little bits of time add up to a large chunk of time.

I am getting so excited for Disney and so excited to spend this time with family in which we can all strengthen our relationships and have so much fun! I hope that it turns out as I hope!

Love to you all! Remember to think positive and tomorrow is another day when you can try harder to be better!!
