Lost 5 pounds

Well, I was only on the Soup Diet for 2 weeks, and didn't lose any weight, so I went back to The Biggest Loser Meal Plans. One reason was because my son had his wisdom teeth removed & wasn't eating solid food, and I couldn't let my poor husband starve, and I wasn't going to knock myself out preparing food for 1. So I went back to the Biggest Loser & lost 5 pounds.

I'm still on the schedule of six days a week at the gym.

I'm riding my bike over 5 miles 4 - 5 days a week.

I'm walking the dog about a mile 7 days a week.

And I'm doing the Biggest Loser on Wii Fit 3 days a week.

My thought for the day on the last day of July: It's a loser easier to gain than lose.

9 days to go till he's 18, nearly there!

I think we're doing pretty well. The Guardianship has been filed with the court, should be complete on August 10th, 2 days before his birthday. Here's what we found out about getting a Guardianship for your child: It's cheaper to do it before they turn 18. After your child is an adult, there are hearings & court visitations involved that cost money. Find a good lawyer that knows what they are dong.

The lawyer got a call from biofather yesterday, no problems there, he doesn't want to contest the process.

The brokerage is set in place now.

We got his medicaid card last week.

All that's left to do is reapply for Social Security next month. For SSI, gotta have lots of documentation. Keep records of everything - doctor visits, hospital visits, etc.
