So, I've been religiously logging in my foods, always under my weekly budget, and I'm still not losing weight. I'm pretty much right where I started out 2.5 weeks ago. According to one app (lose it) my calorie budget is way higher than a different app. Instead of putting me at the losing weight range, I'm in the maintain weight range. Frustrating, but beginning to see why I am not losing any weight. So, I am further reducing my budget I guess. Hopefully this works. Also, I'll have to kick the exercise up a notch too I guess. Ugh.

So Argentinian brought up going to Argentina this year. Which has me already freaked out about the flight already. Even though it isn't going to happen anytime soon (if at all this year). And while researching crash statistics on airlines I came across this website that gives your crash rates and stuff like that. And take a look at good old reliable Southwest Airlines:
Flights: 17.87 million
Fatal Events: ZERO
Above/Below average accident rate: 568%
They've got one of the best records out there. Not that there haven't been any ''incidents'' as they say. There was a fatality of someone on the ground from a Southwest plane that skidded off the runway.
Hopefully this will make me feel a little more at ease the next time I have to take a flight. They may not be fancy planes, but they are cheap, and the odds are that you're going to make it to your destination alive.
If only flights to Argentina had that type of track record...

I've been working extra hard at eating only my allotted amount of calories this week. I'm trying to lose 1/2 a pound a week. So there's a fairly generous amount I suppose. I've even managed to be almost 1000 calories under budget. So, I'm glad I've managed to do that. I went to the store and bought some food that has really has helped with the eating right. I think I'll finally lose this extra weight if I can keep this up.

So I've been really struggling to lose the last few pounds of the pregnancy weigh. It ranges from 5-8 pounds. I know that doesn't seem lime much, but for me it is. I'm not super tall, and it's just really noticable to me. Maybe nit others as much. But I have finally started my food journal today to keep track and hopefully that will help me finally lose these last few pounds. I'm also going to keep track of some exercises also. I'm hoping it will motivate me. Damn, I wish I had weighed myself before eating breakfast... Oh well.

What makes you nervous? How do you react when you get nervous?
One of the things that makes the MOST nervous is flying.
Which is too bad, cause I want to do a lot of traveling in life. I react by just feeling very unsettled. Even thinking about taking really long flights gets me feeling this way. Just a really anxious feeling in my chest. It is no fun. It has only gotten worse since L has come along and had to fly with me. I feel like I am twice as nervous as before, I guess because I have to worry about him being on the plane too. I really don't think I can make any long distance (longer than flying down south) flights without taking something before hand anymore.
Were you named after anyone? If not, how did you get your name?
No, not named after anyone. After writing out a long list of names, my dad picked this name out. Some of the other names they picked out were not so great, so I'm glad I got one I like. Not that there aren't others on the list that would have gotten my approval.
L was back to his more normal wake up time of 8:45/9:00 this morning. Much better than the 7:15 wake up call I got yesterday. He also woke up with a smile on his face. I'm hoping he's feeling better this morning.
i started using my lose it app again. i've had it for a while, but don't always get around to... read more
