Happy Hump Day!!

WooHoo! I remembered! I hope you're all having a great day. I have lost 2 pounds this past week. WooHoo! I now have just 16 pounds left to my goal weight. Wow! I didn't realize how close I am until I wrote that last sentence. I have currently lost a total of 38 pounds. Wow! I didn't realize THAT either! What a shock! I've lost almost 40 pounds, People, by doing NOTHING but eating healthier. That just goes to show just how unhealthy fast food really is for a person's body. I just can't get over that. I still haven't made exercise a habit. I'm actually lucky at this point to exercise once a week (I don't count playing with the nephew or parking farther away exercise in this regard - although to get a sticker at my WWAWP meeting I sure did count those activities because it was more than normal and they say every little bit counts). :-) Anything for a sticker. LOL

I'm thinking of going to Wally World at lunch today (if the rain lets up). I have been fighting with my PJs for the past week and am having a hell of a time sleeping and staying asleep all night because of them. I also need to buy one more pair of nice dress slacks for work. My 14s are extremely loose on me and they're looking pretty bad. I have one pair of 14s that look pretty good, but they aren't slacks so I don't want to push it wearing them (or ones similar every day to work). I still can't go by sizes as all manufacturers are different. I've even found a difference in the same manufacturer from one item to the next (even if they're both pants or sweaters). It's ridiculous. I may also pick up one pair of shorts for the weekend or nice warm spring days. If they're nice enough, I can actually wear them to work, too. I also want to pick up a gradual tanning lotion of some sort. I've heard that those made by Oil of Olay, Dove, and Jergens are pretty good.

Here's yet another online quiz I took today. :-) Come on, I know you've missed seeing them on my blog. I just know it!

What Kari (insert middle and last names here) Means

You are a seeker of knowledge, and you have learned many things in your life. You are also a keeper of knowledge - meaning you don't spill secrets or spread gossip. People sometimes think you're snobby or aloof, but you're just too deep in thought to pay attention to them. You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality. You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something. You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense. You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun. You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start. You are relaxed, chill, and very likely to go with the flow. You are light hearted and accepting. You don't get worked up easily. Well adjusted and incredibly happy, many people wonder what your secret to life is. You are a free spirit, and you resent anyone who tries to fence you in. You are unpredictable, adventurous, and always a little surprising. You may miss out by not settling down, but you're too busy having fun to care. You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people. You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts. You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals. You are fair, honest, and logical. You are a natural leader, and people respect you. You never give up, and you will succeed... even if it takes you a hundred tries. You are rational enough to see every part of a problem. You are great at giving other people advice. You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone. You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together. At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together. You are a seeker. You often find yourself restless - and you have a lot of questions about life. You tend to travel often, to fairly random locations. You're most comfortable when you're far away from home. You are quite passionate and easily tempted. Your impulses sometimes get you into trouble. You are very hyper. You never slow down, even when it's killing you. You're the type of person who can be a workaholic during the day... and still have the energy to party all night. Your energy is definitely a magnet for those around you. People are addicted to your vibe.

Have a great rest of the week. Until later...
