Well, yesterday came and went. I hurt all day long and was not able to go to the gym at all. I woke up yesterday morning with my side hurting me really bad. I kept having to take muscle relaxers and pain medicine. 

 Off Topic : David came home from School yesterday and told us that one of his Teacher's is retiring and this Friday will be her last day. We are all very sad. Mrs. Griffin is the best teacher that they have out there! She has gone above and beyond what any other teacher has, and she has helped David with more than just School work for example (Clothes & Shoes) etc...   

 This is one teacher that I can really say loves and cares for her students! There have been some teacher's that have gone up to her and told her that they bet she is glad she is retiring and all she can do is cry. She doesn't want to do this, but she has tendinitis in the hand that she writes with...and ever since she got in a wreck it has made it a lot worse.  

 5 Days a week she writes all day long and then when she is done in School, she has to take some work home with her and while at home, she is still not done with work from School. So she is up writing till about 9 or 10 every night before she is through! 

 Love & Hugs,

Been going to the gym three days a week. Tuesdays, Thursdays & Saturdays. I would like to start going on Sundays as well, but hubby wants that to be family day..which I can understand. 

I am still keeping my food log for my trainer. He may or may not like it, but I think I have done pretty good, because I have cut out all of the snacking that I was doing before I started it ! 

Tomorrow is my last day of my food log for my trainer...although I will probably keep doing it just for myself. This is a way that I can stay true to myself and be honest about it. To be accountable for what I eat. 

I am suppose to meet my trainer again on Thursday, but I'm not sure if I will be able to or not with the Hurricane coming at us or not. It keeps stalling and now they are saying that it may be Wednesday before it hits. I was suppose to meet with my trainer on Tuesday, but I have an appointment with a new Dr. out of town and can not make it to the gym that day.  

Ok, time for my son's bus to come get him so I need to go for now.

Went to the gym this morning. Had to be there at 11:00. My trainer wants me to keep a food log. He wants me to write down Everything that I eat for a whole week, and I can not cheat on it! Time to get real about this thing!!  

Paul told me that after we got done talking that he wanted me to go work out on the bike for 15 minutes. Come to find out last time I got on the wrong bike. They have two different kinds. One is black and the other is gray. I got on the gray one. He told me to get on the black one today.  

While we were talking he said that He want's me to have 5 pounds off of me in a month and I am to only weigh myself once a month. I agreed to all of this. He said that within a yr I should be down to 230 pounds. Sounds GREAT to me!!! 

After I left the gym we went to the store and got some fruits for me to eat. Like he told me, this is not a diet. This is a life style change. He said my work outs would be like an hour or hour in a half long every time. I think this means when he starts adding machines.

I talked to my Dr this morning and found out something that I wanted to put in my diary. I had a Dr's appointment on June 28th and I weighed 299. I went back Aug 2nd and I weighed 294. Today I just weighed myself for the heck of it, because I wasn't keeping track any ways and I now weigh 291.5 for a total of 

71/2 pounds lost. 

I am so proud of myself for this loss. Some people say that it isn't really all that much..but, if you take some gallon jugs that milk comes in and fill them up with water till you have 71/2 pounds in them and then pick all of them up all at once and just hold them for a while, you will come to realize that it is more weight than you thought. 

From now on when ever I post I will end my entry with my top weight, my current weight and my goal weight. I will not put down my long term goal weight, but I will put down short term goal weights that I know I can reach easily. Then when I have reached it, then I will move my goal weight to another short term goal weight.  

Ok, time for me to go. Son is due home any minute now.

Went to the gym yesterday. I worked out on the bike and stayed on it for 30 minutes..which I should not have done! I should have gotten off of it at 15 minutes, but instead I pushed it. 

Today my left leg right up at the top it really hurts. My side also hurts, of course I got up yesterday morning with my side hurting me any ways...soo, I'm just wondering when it's going to let up. 

Because of my leg hurting me where it is, it is kind of hard to walk and it hurts really bad when I do. I have been up and down through out the night, not being able to sleep all that much. 

I am going to wait and let the trainer weigh me next week when I go in for my appointment with him. I hope and pray that I will be able to keep my appointment with him on Tuesday, cause there has been some talk about gas pumps closing down and being with out gas for a while. I pray that this does not happen, cause if it does I don't know what we are going to do. 

I did hear on the news last night though that it was a rumor and that it was not true! That's only hearing it from one channel though. I don't know what the other ones are saying. 

If everything goes alright, my mama is coming over on Monday and she is planning on ordering out to where my husband works. When she does I think I will order a salad for myself, because now since I am going to the gym I really want to get into this!!
