Update.. Birds, Pool, Motto..

Here's the latest update on our Birds, Pool and Motto....
The Swallow nest is getting larger above our front door. So far, so good. They don't seem to mind us using the front door. We have no way of seeing if there are babies in the nest.

Our Robin babies are doing great. They are all starting to get gray/black feathers on their wings. The beaks now have color and are turning more yellow.

The pool, yes the pool. I still can't find all the air leaks. I'll have to work on that more this weekend. We already have 6 patches on the air ring that holds in the water! It's a fairly fast air leak because I'm having to put more air in every day.




Motto: I lost 1 pound!! Yeah...only 19 more to go. (am) nothing (noon) hamburger (eve) pizza vegie, Exercise: 5 hr exercise, 150 crunches, 100 leg lifts and maybe running around the block today with Celina.

Hi Lorraine:

Try watching your salt intake. That may be why you are loosing weight so slowly. Salt contributes to water retension.

You might be sorry that you are allowing those swallows to nest above your doorway. Just imagine the bird poop on your front step to say nothing of birds swooping at your kid's, neighbor's and your heads. They leave a nasty brown mess on your stucco, too.

Hi Mom.
You're probably not loosing weight so easily because your body is conserving fat because it needs nourishment. If you eat more of good foods that contain good amounts of vitamins and minerals that your body needs, your metabolism will get on track and will not conserve energy.

Love,

Water retension has nothing to do with permenant weight loss- just WATER loss.
Try doing MyPyramid and create a profile for yourself to see if you are getting adequate, too much, or too little nutrients by entering the foods you eat throughout the day.
