Weight Loss Monday's: Week 42 & 43

    I'm back!!!!! And I'm super happy about it, I got a new laptop, temporarily till January, then I'm going to order a Mac.
    The past two weeks have been insane, but a good insane.

Diet: My diet has been pretty good. Last week I could hardly eat because I had an allergic reaction to a new Chapstick I bought and so my lips were swollen and covered in bumps, it's still hard to eat, but my mouth has almost healed.

Exercise: In the past two weeks I have really stepped up the exercise. I've been getting on my stationary bike everyday, in the past two weeks I've only missed 4 days of exercising, but those days I made up for it in walking.

    I've also come to the conclusion that I am allergic to long-haired dogs. I've never had a problem with short-haired dogs, but we tried to take in a dachshund/poodle mix last week, and it ended with me being sick, and having to take the dog back to my aunt.

So Any results?

Weight Lost Last Week:  2 Pounds
Total Weight Loss:  16  Pounds

   Yes, I've lost 2 pounds, and it's really motivated me to keep going, and stay on track.

       So that is all for today, I shall be posting again tomorrow, Wednesday, and Friday, so be sure to check back for that.
                                                 Stay Creative,

5 Words: Week 24

    So this week has been good, I got a lot of my school work done, and I got some things done that I had been putting off for a while.
      I also went to see the doctor Yesterday, and as usual she said my allergies were really bad. I had mentioned to you last week that I was going to ask about maybe starting allergy shots, so I asked my doctor and she said no. She said she didn't think I needed it, and she wouldn't recommend it as a treatment option for me.
     So for now I'm stuck with these allergies and I'm just going to have to deal with it. Aside from that I'll also be going on Monday for blood work and I'm hoping my Iron levels will be normal. Also if my cholesterol levels come back normal I can stop taking my medicine.
     Overall I'd say I had a pretty good week, and I'm hoping that continues into next week. But that's all for now, let's get to this weeks 5 Words......
 
   Mellifluous- Sweetly or smoothly flowing.
   Aggrandize-To cause to appear greatly.
   Pantheon- A circular temple at Rome with a fine Corinthian portico and a great domed roof.
   Occident- The countries lying West of Asia and the Turkish dominions.
   Sanguinary- Bloody.

     So that's all for this week, I hope you have a wonderful weekend.  Stay Creative my lovelies, I'll post again very very soon.

5 Words: Week 23

     Okay so my power is finally fixed, and my room actually isn't destroyed like I thought it would be. This week has been hard, my health isn't the best, I've been sick, and sleeping a lot. I think the reason I'm sick is a mixture of allergies, a sinus infection, and also I've had a migraine, so I haven't been able to do much.
     Something I've been thinking about a lot lately is maybe starting allergy shots, I think it would help me a lot because I know my biggest triggers are dust and grass. I'm going to make an apointment today to get an appointment to see if my allergy doctor would recommend it. I haven't seen him in about three years, because his response to any sickness is to give a steroid shot, and my other doctor doesn;t want me on steroids.
      So I'll keep you updated on that, if you've been through the process e-mail me about it, let me know about your experience and if you'd recommend it. So let's get started with this week's 5 Words.....
     
Posterity- All future generations.
Wheedle- Coax or persuade someone to do something.
Loki- A mischievous and sometimes evil god.
Sleight- The use of dexterity or cunning, esp. so as to deceive.
Brad- A  small wire nail with a small, often asymmetrical head.

So that's all for this week, I hope you have a wonderful weekend.  Stay Creative my lovelies, I'll post again very very soon.
