Wow, I am so excited. For the first time all week, I have eaten all my points!!!! It is such a celebration to me, now let me tell you what I ate!
Breakfast was oatmeal made with 2/3 c 1% milk, 1 teaspoon ICBINButter and a tablespoon of REAL sugar, YUM for 5 points
A 2 point Coffee
Leftover Sausage and peppers from last night on a hoagie roll for lunch for a 7 point sandwich, super yum
Snack was 0 point Progressive Soup and 4 points worth of Whole Wheat Ritz crackers, I needed something salty :)
Dinner, get this was 2 slices of thin crust Garden Fresh pizza from Papa Johns. I didn't even eat the garlic butter!!!! for 10 points
Man, I just added it all up and I still have 2 points left, however, I am taking my activity points away, because I have 2 sick boys and Brayden sat on my lap for 2 hours today just cuddling mommy, not napping, not playing, just laid there and said AHHHHHHHH AHHHHHHH AHHHHHH, he is getting his 1 year molars.
I was so sad to miss my workout today, I was really looking forward to it and due to the baby's fever, we couldn't go :( I might go in the AM, before Beth's Debut!
Signing off and going to bed!

Yum Dinner
I love to cook and thanks to weightwatchen.com, Roni has inspired me to cook healthier! Thanks Roni! Last night I made my friend Jennifer's Buffalo Chicken Salad, check out her recipe at her myspace blog, http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=120888705
Tonight I made sausage, peppers and more from Roni, I deleted the tomatoes, Mario isn't a fan of tomatoes, piled it on a hoagie roll. Talk about EASY and YUMMY.
I am feeling really good about my WW plan. I am having an extremely hard time eating all my points. I have at least 5-9 points each night. I can't seem to eat enough to make them all up! I am eating a lot healthier. Mario even commented about how he enjoys eating healthy again, SKINNY HERE I COME!!!!!
I love my friend Michele, you should check out her blog, http://micheles-moments.blogspot.com/2007/09/flame-in-all-of-us_18.html. She is so talented and such a source of strength for me, no matter what I am going through. She is such an amazing scrapper, you should buy some of her work!!! Love ya Michele!
I look forward to keeping everyone posted on my weight loss journey! First weigh in is Sunday and believe it or not, I CANNOT WAIT!!!!!!!!

SecureGive
How exciting, I have started working with a company called SecureGive, securegive.com. Check it out and if you need a Giving Kiosk in your Church or Non Profit, I would love to help out!
This came into our lives such a manner I had to listen, I was on 3 different occasions woken up in the middle of the night and every time I opened my Bible, something I do when I can't sleep, I read verses about planting a seed on good soil and then collecting the harvest of plenty! Others about listening to Gods small still voice. The "voice" I kept hearing was to talk to Dr. Marty Baker, our preacher at Stevens Creek Community Church, and see if just possibly I had talents I wasn't using to the fullest in my current situation that I would be able to use and further the Kingdom of God and work with his company SecureGive. After the 3rd time of waking in the middle of the night, I figured I would listen. I sent an email, right, email I mean really! But I just couldn't wait until Sunday next or even Wednesday night Service! He forwarded the email to his wife, Patty. This all was on Monday, well, by Wednesday I hadn't heard from them, so I figured that was God shutting a door and I was to keep working with my other at home business. Well, I decided after returning home on that Wednesday that I would drive back across town and go to WalMart, see I was in their parking lot just 20 mins earlier and had left because I wanted Coen to take a nap. Well, if you know Coen, he wasn't asleep, so I decided to go back and try it again. Well, I walked in and Patty was standing right there at the door! WOW, God works in mysterious ways. Long story short, now I am working with Patty on this endeavor to grow their company and loving every min. of it! Yes, I still love my MK Business and will be working it harder than ever, to get in our 2nd MK Car!!! But, sometimes when God speaks, it is just best to listen and see where He will take you when you obey~!

On the Weight Loss Journey
Well, let's see. . .I have been working out since April 07, everyday and some days twice a day, although I am seeing some difference in the way my clothes fit, I am not seeing any great weight loss, which, let's be real is the reason I go so often. I am so concerned to be here when my boys get older and to not be the "fat mommy". That being said, I have, with much encouragement from Jessica and Jennifer, joined Weight Watchers. Now, there is where the story begins. I have tried WW before, and after 16 lbs. hit a wall and after 5 weeks began gaining it all back, although I was still following the program! So here we go again, with a lot of hesitancy on my part. That said, without Jennifer's support, I would have never walked in the doors, not to mention, step on those scales!!! So I did it, and we are off. I will be posting updates, as my schedule allows!
