Well today is my 46th b-day and am proud of myself that I readed my 10% goal before my b-day. I set mini goals for myself rather than look at the big picture and my next goal is 40 pounds gone total, by Labor Day. I think this goal is attainable.
I made through two parties this past weekend, the night with the cribbage team on Friday and didn't didn't touch the pizza and wings and then the BBQ yesterday for Father's Day and my B-day, staying totally on program throughout the weekend. I am very proud of myself.
This coming weekend is our family reunion. I am making Kentucky "Freud" Chicken from the ES&BM cookbook and a delicious sounding Potato Salad from the Cooking Light Magazine. Also bringing along lots of fresh cut veggies and some low fat hummis and lots of water! There is always so many goodies at the reunion, especially desserts, but I will prevail and stay away from them.
My Journey to a Thinner, Healthier Me
About Me
- tweetybrrd
- I was born June 18th, 1961 on Father's Day to Earl & Martha Sibbald. Was raised in the township of Wainfleet where my parents still live in the house my father built. I have 1 younger brother. I graduated Port Colborne High School in 1978 and went on to Sheridan college where I studied animated cartooning. Do to major problem with my knees and many surgeries, I never completed my college education at Sheridan. I took piano lessons when I was younger and even won a Gold Medal in the Niagara Falls Kawanis Music Festival. I went on to learn how to play many instruments including, baritone sax, mandolin, acoustic and electric guitar, bass guitar and bit of the banjo. I went on the road with a band from Oshawa for 3 years, playing all over Ontario before moving back to Niagara, living in Welland and played bass guitar in a few local bands for about 15 years. I Love to draw & paint. I am self taught in crocheting and I love all kinds of crafty things to do.
