Tracking My Weight Loss

My weight loss since I first began my WLS journey:





And since I had surgery:





I don't really believe in making New Year's resolutions because they're so easily made and so easily broken. Does anyone taken them seriously? Well ... here goes:

1. Take these resolutions seriously.

2. Read fifteen new authors for the new author challenge.

3. Work on my recovery with a sponsor from ACOA

4. Scan old photos

5. Write memories I have from these old photos to help me work on my memoir/story

6. Read thirty books for the Mixology reading challenge

7. Get down to my goal weight, which means lose another 50 lbs.

8. Go to at least 3 bariatric surgery support group meetings

9. Attend at least 6 meetings of the Al-Anon meeting here in town

10. Practice more anger management skills

Caturday: Snow Watch

We woke up to a winter wonderland outside! We have blizzardy conditions right now and a lot of snow of the ground. I love snowfall--especially when I don't have to go anywhere. The gang wanted to look outside early this morning so I opened the blinds around 6:30 a.m.


Kosmo takes a look at all the snow falling


This was actually the first picture I took this morning. It still looks dark out, doesn't it? See Munchie's eyes reflecting back? She sure was fascinated with it all!


Like Kosmo, Amber's a veteran of watching snowfall. I could tell she was enjoying the view.


This is what you can see from our side door in back of the house. I should have taken a picture of what the cats were looking at but ... I didn't want to open the front door, LOL.


Another picture of Munchie watching the snow fall from her favorite perch--the cat tree!
