Weight loss switch from Slim fast Shakes to HydroxyCut Drop

For the past couple months I have been using Slim Fast and I couldn't tell if it was working or not Plus sometimes it bothered my stomach a bit as it was made with Milk. Which Milk bothers me so I am not saying it was the Slim Fast. But the taste of the shakes was good and it did not leave a after taste. Plus I could fix it and take it with me. 

So this week I decided to try out HydroxyCut as I had heard a lot of advertisements about it. Plus I did not want to take any pills and I was tired of the shakes. So I found out they have Drops I can add to water which I was so happy to find out about. 

So this week I have been drinking it twice a day and I am not sure I am losing any weight yet. But I plan on using it for the next month to see what happens. Plus I like that it comes in Fruit Punch which is what I had purchased. Plus if I end up tired of it there is also a Wild Berry Flavor I can not wait to try out. 

David has even said he may try this with me as he wants to lose weight just as badly as I do. So today I will be sharing HydroxyCut's site with him as I want to show him all the different products as there is a couple more I would like to try out. 

Plus it has recipes on it that we can try out. As well as showing us how many Calories we burn if we do certain things. Plus it shows us how much water we should be drinking which I have been doing as I have a application on my phone. But David doesn't so know he can use the website and see what all he is doing.

Plus to make it more of a family program we can all look up how much water we need to drink as well as the types of exercise we do and how many Calories we are burning and Charlie can track it for a month to see what he is and isn't doing. This will help him stop sitting on the couch all the time. Which I will be so excited to see.

Weight Loss is going to be the Death of me!!



My mother and law surprised me last month when she wanted to visit NRH Center in North Richland Hills as they have a inside pool. But she is needing to walk her doctor says and she can not do it outside. So Charlie, David, Sherry and I all piled into her Tahoo and headed to NRH Center. Now I thought we was just getting information. But once inside we looked around and she asked for a application.



As soon as I saw the cost I knew I could not afford it. But that did not stop Sherry as she filled the application out and added David, Charlie and I as well as my niece and her husband and Granny to the application and then off she went to pay.

So for a little over a month we have been walking in the pool. As well as Charlie and I walking up stairs on the track and on the weights. Even when Sherry did not go with us we have been going and I can tell you most days I am worn out. But I have pushed on and I am not giving up.

Even if on the 10th David and Sherry do not redo the membership I am going to continue walking outside as I have lost 25 pounds and David has lost 20. Plus it is getting Charlie more active which is awesome.

So today Sherry and I did a mile in the pool. Then I came home and Charlie and I walked around the neighborhood and I hit almost 3800 steps. My goal is 10,000 a day but I would like to up it to 15000. So as of 4:15 I am at 8562 and I am not sure if I will make the 10000 today as I have joined a challenge and have to do there exercises as well.

Which I missed yesterday and I should have done 100 squats so I have done 75 of them today. Then today's is 100 crunches and I have 75 of them done. I am not sure if I will get the last 25 of either done but what I can tell you is I am going to try.

As my goal before Charlie returns to school is to lose as close to 50 pounds as possible. As I started at 225 and I am right at 200. My wish is to get to 130 but even if I only make it to 150 I will be so much happier and healthier that I will not fuss.

As I will be able to ride that Bike I can not ride now. As well as play Soccer with Charlie as this is what he would like for me to do. Plus I might be able to do a 5 mile walk which is what I would like to see us do as a family.

Are you looking to lose weight? If so what are you doing? What is working and what isn't working for you? Are you in a gym?

What do you get the man you Love for Christmas?

I have been shopping for days for a gift for him and I can not think of anything for him. If he wants it he usually goes and buys it for hisself once he knows all the bills have been paid and we have some extra money. Plus how serious do you take the man you Love? He is losing his hair big time and he keeps telling Charlie and I he needs a hair plug and I see all types of products on line to help him grow his hair back. If I bought him some of them to go into his stocking do you think it would hurt his feelings? Or do you think he is serious about wanting to try some out? I could just tell him they are vitamins I guess and switch the bottle on him but I do not want to lie to him. I wonder if I took some it would make him know it is OK for him to take them as well? I know for me personally my hair is thinning and it is turning grey and if it would help me to not lose it so fast I would be willing to try it. Plus if it would help me look younger I would be willing to give it a shot. As I am so tired of people calling me Charlies grandma as I am in my upper 40's and he is only 4 this week. It embarrasses me and makes me feel horrible when this happens and so I think I will ask Santa for some of these types of products and also some hair dye and why I am at it some pills to help me lose all the unwanted weight I am caring around. So hello New Year hello new me. Also hopefully a new dad for Charlie as well.
Well I did it I went and got David some of these products for his stocking. He may hate me but I am tired of him putting himself done over the way he looks. So I check first the provillus review then bought it and I really hope he likes it and so as not to hurt his feelings I am going to buy myself some weight loss products and add them to my stocking as this way he can see I am also trying to change the way I look.

Exercise and a 4 year old.

I am trying my best to lose weight and I am not to good at exercise. But since I would like for my son to be healthy, I am doing my best to find some exercise that we can do together. This way I will feel better and hopefully my son will do as well. He Loves to play outside and once in a while I walk him to school but I just do not think this is enough. What would you suggest I do? What types of exercise would you suggest I do to help us both out?
He is in school and he does tumbling and also a Moving and Grooving class but that does not get me any exercise. So can you help me figure out what the right kind of exercise would be good for me and my son? My friends told me a new type of exercises which are the Beach Body, Extreme Body Workout and 90 Day Review. I think we are going to try these things.
There is a walking track at his school and I can use it but it does not allow children on it and it takes 17 laps to make a mile and I am not sure if a mile is enough per day. Plus what would I do with my son while I walk? If I walk while he is in school then I can not be there to help out in his class room which is not good as the teacher counts on me. So once again can you help me decide how I can get some exercise.
