The Good, The Bad, and The Just Plain Stupid

The Good:
Yesterday.
I lost two more pounds yesterday at Weight Watchers making my total in just over two months to 16.8 pounds. And I met my goal of 15 pounds by my birthday (the 15th). My next goal is 25 pounds by the end of June. I’m sure I can do that.
My grandsons came to visit me in the afternoon and my daughter and I got in our “Last Chance Workout” before Weight Watchers by walking to the park with the boys and Lily. Cayden rode his tricycle all the way down the hill, but of course, it was very difficult to get back up. He screamed (poor tired boy) all the way back home. It was hilarious watching him ride his bike. Think Arte Johnson’s tricycle from Rowan and Martin’s Laugh-in days (if you’re old enough to remember that. I couldn’t find a single picture of it on the Internet.)
Cayden was fascinated with his auntie’s facial piercings. Then they made silly faces at each other. Cayden is such a big boy these days. He loves Damma’s house and says it’s warm and “pitty” (pretty).
The Bad:
Nothing. Nothing’s bad in my world today.
The Just Plain Stupid:
Me thinking I could swing like a kid on the swings at the park. I got on there, and Cayden wanted to push me, so he did, then he walked behind me and I knocked him on his ass accidentally when my swing came backwards. So I got off, made sure he was okay - he was, he was laughing - and got back on. I continued to swing and see how high I could go. Cayden said, “Look Damma, you’re doing it!” Cracked me up. But stupid me, I hurt my back. Obviously that’s not an exercise I’ll be doing any time soon again.
Now, back to work…


I’m sorry you hurt your back. I don’t think I’ll be doing any swinging no matter how tempted I am.
Oh, and Congratulations on making your goal at WW.
My next goal is to lose 28.8 pounds to reach 100 pounds. I figure it will take 3 1/2 to 4 months. So by the end of summer I will have lost 100 pounds, my halfway point. The thing is I know we can do it.
Congrats on the weight loss! My daughter started WW a few weeks ago and has been faithfully sticking to the rules, and she’s lost over 10 pounds. She looks great!
Hey, at least you tried to get on the swing. You wouldn’t catch me doing that, LOL! Be careful of your back, okay?
