134.7 Another .1 down:)

Yummy Cuties!
Blame Ree Drummond and the Pioneer Woman blog for my new obsession. She posted about these Cuties and of course they were at the store just waiting for me. They are only 3 sugars for the whole teeny orange! And I know they are healthy, so it is a win win! It feels good to put fruit in my body. I joined myfitnesspal yesterday and that is where I got the sugar count, so I trust them. I also found that I really don't eat that many sugars a day, but I have a TON of sodium. I was almost over my sodium for the day at breakfast! Ugh:( Does that explain the gross bags under my eyes when I get up in the morning?
Flat butt:( 1/02/12
I have said before that I have a really flat butt:( I really do, here is a picture to prove it. I know some of you may say I am lucky, but it is in no way attractive for the butt of my pants to be hanging down all the time and my butt looks like I am sucking it in. This is a GREAT reason to get back to the gym and start doing some squats. If it is sunken in at 54, oh my gosh it will be hollow at 56. Well, that's saying I will never gain again. Even when I do gain weight it is all around my middle and I still have a flat ass, cracker ass, etc. etc. etc. Double ugh...but if this is the worst thing I have to stress about, I am blessed! Did you notice that "gain" is a part of again? Hmmm???
My hubby and I are meeting my sister and husband and going to The Texas Road House for dinner tonight. I  am going to eat what looks good, but I worry about my system on the way home. The restaurant is in a smaller city about 45 minutes away, close to Dawn:) That's a long drive if I eat something that doesn't agree with me. Sad that I have to think about those things, but at least my body doesn't like it either!
I got FABULOUS news yesterday. My daughter and grandson will be here for about 10 days in February. Her sister in law is getting married around Valentines day (she's preggars:)  and so they will fly in to Spokane. I go to Georgia in   a couple of weeks and then I will see them again 2 weeks later:) I miss my Karson. I can't even watch videos of him without getting teary. I don't miss the mess! Kayce, if you are reading my blog, I love you dearly, but I hate a messy house!
Continued thoughts and prayers for Pattie and Beth. Deep sigh, count our blessings.

  2. Yay for gramma Kay! I don't know what to tell you about Cuties - I've seen 3 and I've seen 7. If they make you feel good, eat them! That's what's nice about being in maintenance. :) I wish I had one right now.

  3. What an adorable picture! Hey, look at it this way, no one can accuse you of having "too much junk in the trunk"!!! hahahahaha! (crackin myself up here Kay!)
    Dr. Oz just had a segment on today about stomach cancer today and how it is on the rise in caucasion women. He said that Vitamin C is essential to help fight off the free radicals & that it is important for the health of your stomach lining. He also said to limit smoked & cured meats (hotdogs, pepperoni, sausage, salami) as these all contribute to increase risk factor for stomach cancer. It was an eye opening episode. I dont know why I went off on a rant on yuor comment section. Sorry. You are cute as a button Kay & I hope when I am 54 I look like you! :)

  5. When I gain its always in my middle too! My legs and butt stay relatively small. But people that gain everywhere always look more proportional. My stomach is also the last place to lose - even on the Belly Fat Cure. My neighbor left a big bucket of oranges and apples on our doorstep for Christmas! I told her how much I loved them and then gave them away to family members without her knowing. The hardest fruit for me to stay away from was my watermelon in the summer! So glad you'll see Karson soon!

  6. I have no idea about the cuties. All I know is a regular orange has at least 15 grams of sugar.
    I understand what you are saying about the butt thing. I used to have a nice shape in the Butt area before BFC. It was big but a good shape and now it is flat too.
    I guess I'd rather have it flat then fat. LOL
    Have a great day.... :-)
    P.S. you are so beautiful knock it off..

  8. Haha Amber, your post made me giggle.

    I have to tell you this, since I started working out, my mom can't believe how much my butt has changed. It used to be flat and now it's round. it really freaked me out at first hearing my mom talk about my butt, but it did make me feel good. I just wanted to encourage you to keep up the exercise cause it will change the shape of your body.

    I love cuties too! :)
