Im off on a tangent today, nothing about "THE SCALE"

 

Well yesterday was my first day of school.  And boy do they know how to make a statement.  We walked in and there were at least 18 books piled on each of our desks, plus a clinical bag full of hemostats, iv's, catheiters, gloves etc... When I sat in my seat I couldnt see over the mountain of stuff.  But Im siked anyway.  We sat thru 4 ok maybe 3 1/2 hrs of lecture on school rules and regulations, instructor introductions and a tour.  Then we got our homework and were on our mary way. 

 

I got my uniforms last night too and I cant wait to try them on.  I was too tired last night when I got home.  But tonight Im suitin up.   I just want to see how official I look in my scrubs and stethoscope.  I rock!  ok - Im a nerd. I even sat in the front row.

 

Hope everyone is doing well. ~Melissa~

Hi all.  Im happy to report that I have lost 3lbs this week.  YEAH!  Thanks to Dawn one of our fellow MPM friends I joined Sparkpeople.com and strated tracking my calories on there.  Boy I was not doing such a good job when I was tracking my calories myself.  This is really helping keep me honest.  To see the NUMBER and then the breakdown  What an eyeopener.  I just spoke to Penny and she's down to 189.  Great Job Pen! 

 

Next week I start Nursing school, Im going at night.  So that is going to be intense.  But Im up for the challange. 

 

On another note Penny and I started our own errand service.  Being working mothers this is something we would have loved to have and know that the service is invaluable to busy professionals.  This is something we've been working on for a while now and it is getting pretty serious.

So, Friday was a great day for me!!  I ate great and even got on my treadmill for the first time in 41/2 yrs!!  Saturday wasn't to bad either- my friend & I threw our friend a b-day party so i ran around & didn't eat all day till night time & even though i ate baked ziti & some bread & a bite of my chz cake i made sure my portions were very small.  Sunday was not a bad day either.  the only thing that sucked was that i didn't have a chance to get on the treadmill.  But yesterday...I WAS HORRIBLE!!!  not only did i eat bad but it was very late @ night too!! This morning I woe up  my stomach was hurting & i can't stay out of the bathroom!!!  WHY DO I DO IT TO MYSELF!!!!  tomorrow is weigh in @ WW we shall c what happens!! i haven't been in 2 wks!! okay wish me luck for te day & all will be told tomorrow night @ the scale!!!!
