The Myan Stacey's Next Victim!

Today was the birthday party of my nephew Justis.

He choose to have it at the Mayan restraint at Jordan Commons in sandy.

It was a big group because we have a very large family 36 people were there to be exact.

Allot of funny things tend to happen when your out in public with a big family but this one was for sure Blog worthy.

We were there quite some time before we got our food and drinks due to the size of our family, My little sister Stacey was sitting next to me as we got our food Stacey's was one of the first one to come out it was a cheese quesadilla as food was still being passed around she Begin to scarf hers down, Half way through she made a face and said to me "I ordered a Chicken Quesadilla!" I said "Stacey they clearly said that was a cheese Quesadilla" all of a sudden she got this oh shit look on her face she looked at me and said "Oh crap I ordered a Chicken enchilada!" She had forgotten what she ordered and gotten some one Else's dinner-and eaten half of it! :)

There was an empty chair in front of her so she tried to subtly scoot the plate of half eaten food over to the spot and pretend it was not her who made the mistake as the waiter called out "Who ordered the Chicken enchilada?" as he brought it over to her he looked at the empty seat with the half eaten Cheese Quesadilla and said "Whats up with this?" Two tall Ice cold Beers in I just started to laugh and tell the Server the whole story. He took the plate of food-With angry eyebrows and set it on the tray. A few moments latter from a next table down we heard

"Where is my Cheese Quesadilla?, I have not gotten my Quesadilla!" The Waitress had no clue because no one had told her and Mr Angry eyebrows had left without the food.

We overheard her tell the person in a confused voice that "It appears that someone has eaten half of it mam, we will have to get you a new one"

By this time I'm laughing so hard I'm tearing up, and Stacey is looking peeved and slightly embarrassed.

"What happened?" I asked her. Defensively she spouts "I was Starving and we waited SO LONG! When the food got here I was pumped and forgot what I ordered. Everything just sounded good!"

After telling the whole family I thought it was my responsibility to tell all my friends through this blog ;)

Poor Mayan! Who is going to cover the cost of that half eaten Cheese Quesadilla? WHO?

Makes ya Wounder dosn't it?...

The last few days of my quiting has been slow but steady improvement, As far as smoking, No Problem! However the Healthy eating has been crazy hard.
Whats up with that?!
I was (up tell the day I quit) smoking a pack a day. Here is a Not so fun Fact: Tobacco smoke contains over 4,000 different chemicals. At least 50 are known carcinogens (cause cancer in humans) and many are poisonous. Not to mention Highly addictive! However fast food has been the hardest thing for me to quit. Makes ya wounder doesn't it?... What exactly are they putting in our food these days?
As for me I am taking it one step at a time, the big first steps I have decided to take is to cut out fast food for the most part.
Step two cut out Soda for the most part and replace it with a 100 oz of water a day.
I am a Diet coke lover so this has been hard for me, my body still craves the carbonation over water.
This brings us to physical exercise... Yeah so I'm just going to be honest not once have I pulled my butt out of the house to go at least walk!
I know it takes time to make healthy habits but this one has been hard for me its like once I get home I crash hard core.
I know alot of it is a mental thing but that's the hard part is changing my mental state from being, well the way I have been living life the last 3 years to being more active and healthy.

Here comes the weekend yay! Cant wait to sleep in But this weekend my biggest goal is to get out there and get active.

Time to fire up the Wii Fit!!! :)
XOXO

Day one- Well that should have been Obvious!

So day one of my diet....Or not!
I learned an Important lesson that I should know by now, You have to plan out your day to have any hope of sticking to your diet -DUH!
I started out the day late for work no time for breakfast and no time to pack a lunch, In my hurry to get out I grabbed 2 Uncrustable's from the fridge.
An Uncrustable for those of you who don't know is a pre-made peanut butter and grape jelly sandwich without a crust. I used to do Weight Watchers and here is a not so fun fact, one small Uncrustables sandwich is about half you daily points right there, and you have to eat at least two to feel full!
When I got to work I still hadn't eaten breakfast, there on the table was doughnuts! Before I could even stop and think "Wait I'm on a diet" I had eaten one.
Later that day a Lunch time a sugar craving hit and once again due to my not being prepared with some healthy snacks I gave in and got a Snickers Bar. -It was delicious! :(
Once at home I was fine away from temptation of junk food, but another temptation hit...The temptation of my comfortable bed.
Once again I gave in Opting for a nap over physical exercise.

Before writing in today's blog I reflected on the cause of my failure today- other then sheer will power that is.
It was obvious that what I needed to do was have a schedule, and a plan in place to help avoid temptation and lunch time desperation.
I think I will start out with a high protein diet, also In the mail today I got my Acai Berry diet.
It has received good reviews on Oprah, and Rachael Ray also lost quite a bit a weight on it.
Another thing I have been thinking about is this Diet exercise routine called P90 its way intense but has amazing results.

If at first you don't succeed try, try again!
Tomorrow is a new day and with a plan in place I'm positive it will be a more successful day!

XOXO

New Goals- Just call me quiter!

Ok fall seasion is coming and due to a slump I have fallen in with my mood I have decided to do something to pull me out of my negative mood,.... I'M GOING TO QUIT!

1. Quit smoking- I'm at 9 days so far peace of cake

2. Quit Wal-Mart- I just quit this weekend I'm too burned out and its bringing me down

3. Quit Hating everything about my self by doing things that are good for me- This is just about stooping and taking time for myself to work out, to paint my nails, to tweezer my eyebrows, etc. Its the small things that make such a difference in how you feel.

This is about healing myself inside and out I think it will make a huge difference in my quality of life the hardest thing is going to be really sticking with it I'm such a yo yo dieter I get all gung ho about something then it just dies off I'm hoping I will be more committed to it by keeping a blog of my thoughts and feelings.

Wish Me Luck!! :)
