Wait Loss

No I didn't spell that wrong I mean wait loss. We all have to wait for something or someone. In my case I am waiting for myself. I am waiting for me to stop being so weak. I really want to lose weight but I am standing in my way. I have all the tools at my disposal, time to exercise, a supportive spouse, Isagenix and yet I have loss next to nothing. Of course I do know why. I am pretty self-disciplined Monday thru Thursday but the minute I wake up on Friday...I party like Prince's 1999. 

I go out for Happy Hour with my husband, dinner with my girlfriends, parties with my kids, bowling with my family and all of that includes food. Not salads, low carb snacks and high protein items but junk food. Pizza, hot wings, drinks (at least I drink diet coke with my Crown), cake, nachos...the list goes on and on and I appearently have no will power. Come Sunday I slump in dieter's remorse and scold myself for not sticking to my guns.

Monday I have a new found sense of purpose. Tuesday I feel like I'm accomplishing something. Wednesday I look forward to my weight day (Friday) and Thursday I am convinced that this time I will be different. But then Friday comes along, Pizza gets delivered to work along with cookies, my husband gets the party bug and wants to go out on the town for dinner and drinks, my girlfriends call me up to check out a new restaurant and inevitably one of the kids needs to go to a party of some sort with lots of sweets; of which are my complete and utter weakness.   

I don't know what to do. I don't really have someone (really I need a female friend) who really wants to buddy up with me on my journey. Most of my friends don't need to lose weight. My husband, although loving, supports me in losing weight but doesn't have time for me. And the female friends I do have are in another state. 

This is wholly on my shoulders as it should be and I need to stand up and be strong. But I find myself lacking. IF anyone has any suggestions I would love to hear them. By the by, the Isagenix works wonders if you use it. I only use it Monday thru Thursday...here's a concept, perhaps I should use the product the way it directs me to. DUH! Oh and self hypnosis doesn't work, it only puts me to sleep. : )

Until next time...

Inspiration and help

I have been writing my book and am getting to that point where I need a little inspiration. So I started watching Hauntings on the History channel and saw some unsettling points of view. I am a firm believer in ghosts and I am saddened and angered by those who do not believe. Not everyone HAS to believe what I think or what other people think about ghosts but have some respect for their opinion. Don't just call them crazy or say that they don't think they know what they saw. I was so disturbed I changed the channel and started watching Medium. So after a good solid hour I felt better and got the inspiration I needed. I started writing again. Then I realized what direction my writing went and had to laugh. Since its snowing out I knew I was going to need a lot more input to put my mind in the right frame of mind so I sought the help of my Wii. I spent an hour killing zombies in my Resident Evil game and started writing again. As a writer trying to become known this is the horr...

Captive Audience

At the end of each month I like to see if anyone in the world is actually reading what I have to say or am I just using this blog as a method to get away from all the voices in my head. I was surprised. I happen to be big in Russia and Sweden. Yes, my dear friends in the US do read my blog too but the Swedish beat you this month. So I all my wonderful readers in Russia, I just wanted to say: Спасибо за то, что читать мой blog. Для информации обо мне, сумасшедшем авторе, посещают мой вебсайт в www.jennipherdallas.com . For my Swedish friends: Tack för avläsning min blogg. För information om mig, de galna författaren, besöka min hemsida på  www.jennipherdallas.com Gee I hope I got that right : )  Keep reading I promise to stay crazy! Until next time...

Dilemma-ethical-uh?

If you google the word dilemma it comes up with the following definition: "A situation in which a difficult choice has to be made between two or more alternatives, especially equally undesirable ones." Then goes on to give synonyms like quandary, predicament and vicious circle.  *Sigh* Well, wonders never cease in my world and for the sake of my sanity I hope my five whole readers understand what I am about to spill. Everyone has someone in their family that does not sit right with them (I'm trying to be ambiguous here for a reason). I am no different. I have no real family anymore. Since my father died almost two months ago, I have NO family anymore. Sure, I have a sibling, who is a complete and utter moron. This person is a run away from responsibility, self-centered individual who I have tried to help throughout the years. The other person is a selfish, self-centered, manipulative, gas bag who thinks the world revolves around them and goes out the ...
