April's Journey to "135"

Hi everyone!! Thanks for checking up on me! It's been crazy around here running around in circles. I'm posting for yesterday then I probably won't be able to catch up until Sunday!
BREAKFAST: 2 oz trail mix
water: 32 oz
LUNCH: Atkins shake
32 oz water
DINNER roast turkey
grilled potatoes
green beans
water: 48 oz
no excercise, running around too much!!!
water total: 112
 
No exercise my butt, at this time of the year hun were all running around like chooks with our heads chopped off…plenty of exercise lol. I hope you have a wonderful day mate.
 
Thank you, Rhonda! I feel the same but everyone keeps telling me that if it's not structured excercise it don't count! Ok, I've been running in circles, but I did get the tree and got it put up! I was kind of worried because I didn't want "fakey look". Actually, I'm really happy with it. The last fake tree I put up had those sticks you put in the holes on the main pole. This one is only 3 pieces that stack on top of each other. the branches fold out like an umbrella and then you move around the little branches to fill it out! The lights are regular strings that are put on and twisted around certain branches to keep them in place. So, no weird problems if a light goes out! It's a "douglas fir" style. It's actually really nice looking. Putting decorations on tomorrow when daughter gets home.

Oh, yesterday I forgot to mention climbing in and out of John's truck 8 times to open and close gates at the ranch, and got chased by a cow. Guess what I found out? I CAN RUN!!!!!
 
ROFL mate ya got to watch them cows, I can give you a hint though If one starts to come at you again turn around and face it… stand tall and shout till you think your lungs are gonna burst and wave your arms like crazy. It usually makes them crap themselves and they will stop. If that doesn’t work go back to plan (a) and run like crazy lol. Ps don’t turn ya back on the buggers they are sneaky.
 
Cows.....hummm interesting!! Just stopping in to see what your up too! I bet your tree looks beautiful! What was you doing around cows? Did you go on a trip with your dh? My dh came home yesterday! He will leave tomorrow and come back on Friday and then be on vacation for the rest of the year!! :D
 
Please don't call him dh!!! How about AH?(ass hubby) I know I try to make him sound good, but the fact is he is truly hateful and cruel. There's a small part of me that loves him, but mostly I wish he would just leave! It hurts to realize that I actually hate him more than I love him, but that's the truth. I've actually found myself wishing that I would get the call that he had been killed. I know that sounds terrible, but this is a man who's made it his goal in life to hurt my daughter as much as he can
 
I'm sorry to hear that! I have a question though.. Why do you stay with him.. If i was married to a man like that.. I would have already been gone!!! Your daughter is your first priority.. and you also.. So if I couldn't take care of myself and my child first i would get the he!! out! Your starting to lose weight and take control of your health.. so if I was that unhappy.. I would take control of my life too! Please dont think i'm being mean... This is only MY opinion... Which usually doesn't mean anything! I hope things get better for you hun!
 
Good day to everyone! So far today is a little better than yesterday. I didn't have dinner last night. Was too mad to eat. This morning I just had my shake. My sister is having her family Christmas party tonight. I'm making a fruit platter with fruit surrounding a whole pineapple. The plan is to cut up the pineapple then restack it so it looks like it's still whole! Will be surrounded by strawberries, kiwi, and I'm not sure what else. I think some green grapes!
 
For Christmas im making a watermelon basket for the fruit salad, all ways makes it look pretty. I think I may have to try your pineapple idea… thanks mate.:D
 
Ooh how about apple slices to add to that platter? Sounds fabulous! Smart idea bringing the healthy food with you!!
 
Hey April,sad to hear your hubby is not getting along with your daughter!:(
Is she going through her teenage stuff,sounds like they are clashing!
Last night my step kids (13yr old Emma,15yr old Daniel)have come to stay for 4-6weeks.Its holiday time,and all their friends too!
Cooking,cleaning,washing,I turn into a taxi driver,take us here or there!
I also have my two little ones to look after too,no kindy or occassional care!
Happy days are here again!Not!!!
I hope things will get better April,just lucky hes not home much when this is all happening!
Chin Up GIRL!!!!;)
 
Hey Sweetie as usual Im worried about you. I hope everything gets better for you I hate that you are having problems around the holidays. I was going to call on Saturday but maybe its best I didnt if there was tension there but you are always in my thoughts and Im always here if you need me.
 
Good Morning! How did the party go last night? Did ya eat some fattening stuff for me too! I'm gonna stick to my diet until Friday is over with.. I'd give anything to lose these last 3 lbs so that I could be out of the 20's for the first time in over a year!! Anywho just wanted to let you know I was thinking of you! Hope your having a great day today!
 
April I hate it your so miserable with him and as you know we are here whne you get the nerve to do what you need to do! Remember the advice you gave to julie? Think about yourself as well! You deserve better also! Hope its going good keep safe!
 
Thanks everybody! Things have calmed down a little so we'll see how things go. I do understand him having issues with her. Keep in mind this is a 15 yr old that tried to kill me 6 months ago. She attacked me with a butcher knife. Based on orders from juvenile court, she's not even supposed to be here. The children's home she was in couldn't handle her so I had to go get her. She is actually only here temporarily while everyone decides on the best placement for her.
 
Oh my goodness April, your life has more plot twists than a soap opera :p

In all seriousness, I hope everything turns out for the best for you, because I love to see my friends happy!
 
Geezze April she sounds pretty full on,fortunately for me I am pretty tall and large built,and if one of my kids desides to do something!I would kick their butts!
My kids/step kids would not dare think of doing anything violent towards us!
I feel for you April and your scary situation!
Dont let her manipulate you,let her know that being violent towards you is not on!If it happens again,making her leave and living rough for a while will really wake her up a bit!
I know its hard to do that to your own flesh and blood,but she has shown you no respect.She will survive,you cant live your life like that April!
Thats my 2cents anyway!How is the dieting going in all the excitement!
How are YOU going is what I am trying to ask!
I eat when I have had a stressful day,and your life sounds very stressful right now!
I am thinking of you girl,hang in there!:( :)
