So my sweet little Daisy was spayed recently. I knew it would eventually come when this had to be done. A lot of good reasons to do this to your cat, I don't have to list them as I know you already know, and you don't need to be lectured on it. I have to admit though, I was nervous, in my mind I often thought of worse case scenarios. I quickly snapped out of that though. We get up early, and like clockwork, she want to be fed, so that fact were not feeding her, I am sure she felt something was up. We got ready, got all documents we needed, and put her in her carrier. I am sure she is thinking "What is going on?", right? Here in this photo, she is being carried off to her appointment. I don't think she is too happy. But we arrived, they told us a few things, and then we were off. I went to RMV to apply for my state ID, yes ID Continue Reading

Weigh-in #6 – I’m Confused!
Well here I am, I weighed in this morning, which I feel is the best time to do it. According to this article, I read online. I have to say I was very disappointed with what I see. I thought back to my week, and though I think I did pretty well, all week I stayed under my 1460 calorie intake, so why did I gain weight? That just didn’t make sense to me. I said oh well, I have to re-evaluate what I am doing, how I am eating, and cut back even more. It was disappointing, I just couldn’t understand. From what the scale said, I gained about 3 lbs, and that is a lot!!! I was mad, sad, discouraged (for about a second), and just confused. I thought okay, no point in crying over it. Moving on. About an hour ago, I got curious to see if my weight changed any, and I thought this because I noticed I had to use the bathroom about 9 times today, Continue Reading
Weigh-in #5 – I Lost Track!
I can’t believe I had lost track of my weigh-ins, on the blog that is. But since I do record my actual weight as a reference to go back to, that helped me a lot. So I posted two different weigh-ins today. So I can keep up. This past weekend, I had a weight gain, I wasn’t happy, it could have been worse, but thankfully it wasn’t. But I don’t want that to be a habit. It’s very upsetting, and I try not to let it bring me down, and give up. I am NOT giving up. I can’t, I have to realize this is a way of life. It has to be for me. I gained .09 lbs, which as mentioned, isn’t a lot. My weight is now at 310 lbs, yes indeed that is a lot of weight, but I am trying here, and I’m happy with my loss so far, I have lost 36 lbs and that is a lot to be proud of. I’ve only been dieting on record for about 4 months, so I think it’s been pretty good. Continue Reading
