Here is the update I promised!
I just came back from my tax appointment. Good news! We have a refund that will pay my first quarterly self-employment taxes for 2008 so that I won't have to pay any more until June 15th, the end of the second quarter!! I am so pleased!
Now for the REAL important stuff...
Sleep: I have made it to bed by midnight 2 out of 3 nights. Not total success, but definitely an improvement.
Water: Every day I have been able to drink 64 ounces or more of plain water, so that is success.
Food: Any snacks eaten (which have been few) have been fresh fruit or vegetables. Overall food intake has been less but might still need a bit of improvement on quantity. Quality has been good. I think I am going to call that success!
Exercise: Every morning I have been up by 6:10 to walk on the treadmill for 20 to 30 minutes. It was a struggle this morning because of working later last night, but I have felt quite a lot better during the rest of the day because of making myself do that, I found out. Total success!!
Best wishes to the rest of you, and thanks for keeping an eye on me to help keep me on the straight and narrow!

sorry I made some typos in that comment. I will do it again.
Good going Jeanette.
I read in my newspaper today that an 8 hr sleep helps people lose weight. I became instantly sleepy.
I love your sense of humor, Amrita! I hope that someday soon I may actually get 8 hours of sleep. Right now it is about 6. I'm sure we do need more sleep than we get. There is a lot of talk about that these days, and I know it is true. I have to fight sleepiness typing at my computer at certain times of the day, like mid-afternoon. It is not a good feeling to suddenly wake up and see that I have typed some nonsense words while the doctor is talking away in my ear!
Thanks for the encouragement, Amrita!
Well sis, here I am, alive and well! It seems my blogging is in spurts! Always something going on to take me elsewhere! I am late publishing my weight even though I did weigh in at the beginning of the week! I've been reading through the comments and I agree with Andrea that sleep and rest are essential! Boo Hoo! I deleted and moved some emails the other day! Did you send me a final itinerary for June? OK --that's it for now but please do take care of your little selfie!
P.S. to Amrita: Always nice to see you've dropped by and read your comments!
I'm so proud of you Aunt Jeanette!!! Keep up the good work!
Thanks, Andrea! I don't know if you looked at my other blog, but if so you know that Coral and I have both been sick with the stomach flu. This one is nasty. Coral got it on Friday evening, and I started feeling sick on Saturday midday. I am still feeling achy and weak.
I think there may be a weight payoff this time, though! Ha ha! We'll see tomorrow...
