Assorted Updates

Cloth diapering is still going well. I've gotten back into the flow of it. I'm planning a review on my diaper stash. I'm still getting a few more here and there. Its not because I dont have enough, but because I have tall boys and with most of the one-size diapers cracks are starting to show. This isn't a huge deal unless there is a less than formed pooped. Yuck. I also found Rock in Green which I'll include in my review. It was a life saver, or rather nose saver.

Weight Watchers is going okay. I've lost almost 5 pounds. Its not much, but given that I will go days without tracking, its pretty good and all in the right direction. I know if I track daily, then I'll loose faster. I've also lost over 5 inches around the usual measured body parts. This I like.

I have enough followers now from the Coffee Card giveaway to have the jewelery give-away. I'll be posting that sometime next week.

No pictures with this post. I have a fun set of pictures for Wordless Wednesday so you'll have to wait a tiny bit.

WW Take xxx

I joined WW this week. Well, let me be a bit more specific, I joined last summer. I've got a monthly membership, but going to meetings with the boys was not easy and getting harder each week. So I stopped going and of course without the accountability, I let what little progress I've made go away. So this week, I found a meeting I could go to at lunch one day a week. It doesn't interfere with my favorite gym workout day, so that's good.
I've had success on WW before, pre-infertility treatments, pregnancy etc. I hope to have it again. My WW buddies are online now which will be a bit different. But my key WW buddy in person from last time is my key WW buddy this time, we just live in different countries.
So confession time, at somewhere between 5'1" and 5'2", I weigh in at 184. Oh joy. My waist is 108cm (sorry, the WW website wanted metric), my hips and bust are both 113cm, which gives me a balanced shape, but certainly not an hourglass one (more like a 6 hour glass). I'm one of those who gains weight around the waist, a beer belly if you will on a man. Makes me look like I'm pregnant.
I'm almost halfway into week 1 and its not bad. The new points plus program takes some getting used to. We'll have to wait and see how it goes. I'll report in weekly, sometime after my meeting (Tuesday) and when I take measurements later at home.

Onto more fun stuff, here are some more pictures from that wonderful session in the park with my friend and his camera. There are more, lots more. Its hard to pick favorites.
