9 weeks down, 215 days to go.....

I can't believe that I'm over 9 weeks along! My husband and I are very excited about our upcoming bundle and just can't refrain from telling people. So, it's official, we are starting to tell more people now, because I'm almost 10 weeks and it's safe to say that things will continue progress normally.

And for the most part, this pregnancy has been normal, for those women who get to enjoy the morning sickness at all hours of the day. I continue to fight my battle with food and finding something that won't make me sick. I'm so nervous that people are work are going to start thinking that I'm bulimic! After every meal, run to the bathroom. Feel like crap for a few hours then feel hungry again! I try to eat as healthy as possible, but nothing at this point even tastes good....except fried food! The warm juices of a hamburger dripping down my throat just makes me sit in pure calmness. Now ask me in 10 minutes how I feel and it will be a different story. My new favorite thing right now is boneless buffalo wings/chicken. The mildly spicy buffalo sauce sears the lips just for a moment, then pure bliss when you dip the wing into the cool ranch dressing, followed by a crisp celery stick. Absolutely A-M-A-Z-I-N-G So, as you can tell, I haven't been eating healthy lately but at least I'm getting my protein right?!?

We put our house on the market a few weeks ago and have had a few showings, but no offers. I would love to get this house sold and move into something bigger with more living space. Don't get me wrong, I love where we live now, but I'm ready for a change and ready for more space. And I'm ready to not have to eat out all the time so we don't make a mess in the kitchen the night before a showing.

Other than being nauseous and throwing up from time to time things have been going well. I'm starting to get tired, but I just started working full shifts again. Before this I would only work a day or so then have 5 days off before I would work again. It's nice getting back into a routine, but after 4 days of 12 hour shifts I'm ready for some R & R. One of my partners let me borrow a few movies, so while the hubby is hard at work this weekend, I will be camping out in front of the tv watching, "Saturday Night Fever," "Stayin' Alive" and "Into the Wild."

Happy Friday everyone!!!

Infertility

So once again I attempt to start my blog on weight loss. However, I've entered a new chapter in my life. Babies. Well not quite yet, but we'll get there. Here's some history..... I was diagnosed with endometriosis in March of 2010, only 3 months after getting married. I had a laparoscopy and had 5-6 different areas. I continued treatment with birth control overlapping each month and when that didn't seem to help the symptoms I started on Lupron. For those of you that are familiar with this product you can attest to its wonderfulness as well as its downfalls. The Lupron put my body into menopause at the age of 24 :) Fun Fun fun!!!! On the first round of shots I did not have a hormone replacement pill which I wish I would have. I had shots every month for 3 months then took a break. In June I had a 3 month dose of Lupron again. The pain continued and I had a second laparoscopy with a tubular dye study in September, and here we are. Our game plan...... My OB/GYN wants to t

Flashback Friday (to two weeks ago...)End of Semester.....I made it

Every year at the start of the semester I say that I'm going to be better about blogging and updating. Well, once again, I've failed to post anything since September. Things tend to get a little crazy 4 weeks after the start of the semester and then I look back and think, "Where did the time go?" As always, I'll give you a recap of how the semester went down.... This post has been a long time coming. Again, I spent countless hours on the road four days a week. It was becoming exhausting, and routine. I was getting burnt out. But the thing about this semester is that there was light at the end of it. I was going to be free from driving 200 miles a day, and be in my student teaching placement, hopefully somewhat close to home. The amount of stress that I endured this semester was more than I thought I would have to manage. Between practicums, night classes, working at the winery, the single mom thing, and then a relationship on top of it all, I'm not sure ho

Does Size Matter?

I have always struggled with accepting my body size and shape. I have never been Barbie thin. My entire life I have always been bigger than my friends, teammates, you name it. It has been an issue that I've struggled with for a really long time. Right after my divorce I was super thin and was working out and teaching group exercises 3 times a week...I loved the way my body looked but I still wasn't happy. While life and stress makes my weight fluctuate, I still am active and enjoy working out. I cannot wait for the gyms to open back up so I have a place to go and lift. I've been running, and even bought a new pair of running shoes. But this post isn't really about me, it's about the idea of what others see my body as. I have been open to dating recently and have been on a handful of dates...none that really amounted to anything. There was one, but it was a total friend zone kind of 6 weeks. Great person, just not the right fit. I had a date this weekend and i
