update from cheat week

Well, my "cheat week" wasn't so bad - after a week of snacking more then usual and going through the occasional drive thru I didn't even gain a pound so what did I do .... had another "cheat week" !!! LOL It's so hard for me to stop snacking once I started which is probably why I don't usually allow myself to have a "cheat day" cause I know it wouldn't stop at the end of the day! But surprisingly after TWO cheat weeks I still have not gained and only maintained, which I suppose is good but I still want to loose another 25 pounds so I best get back on the diet train and try again to loose more weight!!! I think I've gotten most of my cravings out of my system and can go back to eating fruits and veggies!

I have a meeting on Thursday with my boss, I guess that means I pretty close to going back to work! He wants to know when I am headed back and to be quite honest I am very eager to go back to work! I would never give up any of the time I have had with Jacob and I'm so grateful to have enjoyed the year off with him (I know some women don't get that opportunity) but some days I am so exhausted and frustrated. It's not like Jacob can say to me "You did a very good job today as a Mom and I had lots of fun" or "you know Mom I really don't like mashed potatoes and wish you wouldn't give them to me anymore"! And even though I know I must be doing something right cause I can see him growing mentally and physically it's just nice to hear the words sometimes. I think I'm also a little house bound too, even though I try to get out at least once a day I still feel like this house is small - I can only do laps around the kitchen so many times before I get bored and I'm sure Jacob is too! It will be better when summer is here and we can play outside more!

On a plus note, I think Jacob is growing cause boy does he ever sleep good now!! His naps are long and he sleeps through the night, although his bedtime has been later (around 9pm) but I'm OK with that, as long as he sleeps through the night!

I'm not much of a reader but decided to give Twilight a chance (I'm sure you've heard of the book), it's AMAZING!!! I just finished it and feel the need to read it again just in case I missed something the first time but I also want to start reading the next book to see what happens! I've NEVER had this dilemma before, usually when I finish the odd book I never feel the need to read it again!? And I never thought I would be interested in a vampire book! It gives me chills just thinking about it and the way the author describes the feelings between Bella and Edward give me goose bumps!! Seriously a good book, I should have bought the set like everyone said!

So besides not sticking to my diet and staying up way too late reading Twilight I haven't really been up to much!? I'm excited and yet upset that my time with Jacob is coming to an end but I'm looking forward to the days when Jacob can play with my girlfriends boys since it seems like all my friends have boys - it should be lots of fun in a few years when they can all walk and talk.
