Yesterday we bought a new car. It is a 2010 Nissan Altima and I really love it. I did have some problems dealing with our purchase though because the dealer said we would get 2.9 % financing and then said we couldn't get that rate because our credit wasn't perfect unless we bought a maintenance package that will cost us $3000 over the life of the loan. I was disgusted but we wanted the car so I agreed to it and then I felt abused and stupid for agreeing to it. It was a lot better deal than the original 11% rate they wanted to charge us and we did get very good trade in value for our used Nissan Sentra which needed lots of body work and some maintenance. I am really happy with the car which is the nicest one I have ever owned. It has a Bose radio system, satellite radio, seats that heat up in the cold, leather seats, cars and locks that open without having to use a key, and a sunroof. It is a sparkly navy blue color. I just hate to feel stupid and at the mercy of someone. I overate yesterday because of it. It was program food but too much cheese and not enough veggies again. Today I have to get back on track.
I am back on OWL which will be easier. I even found some 5 carb a slice bread to try. I weighed 183.8 so I am getting close to the 170's now. I lost more than 5 lbs. in the last two weeks on Induction plus nuts so that was good especially since I didn't do it perfectly at all. I need to order some more 7 carb pitas. My daughter and husband liked them so much they ate all but one of them from a whole case of them. I also need to order some bake mix. I got some of my veggies in this morning when I ate an omelet with a tomato, green pepper and onions in it. I will have a salad for lunch. Brussel sprouts for dinner. We'll probably try to make another recipe from genaw.com or 1001 Low Carb Recipes.
I have been walking regularly lately which is great. I need to get busy and do the rest of my exercises too.
Today we paid off the balance on our new dryer so that will make our life a lot easier too. Tomorrow we take Zeta for her third set of puppy shots. I think she gets her rabies shots tomorrow. She is a delight and a challenge. I can't get over how cute she is. I need to figure out how to post her picture on here.
I guess I'll go now and check out my buddies journals.

I have decided my life is pretty boring...I am going to buy a new car tomorrow though and that is kind of exciting. I seem to spend almost every waking second dealing with my new puppy. I did get to a meeting today and gave my sponsee a first step inventory to work on. We are planning to get a new Nissan Altima - anything but a white, yellow or black one. I'd really like another red car actually.
I was worried today because my puppy swallowed a large piece of fake bone that dogs chew on. I was worried it would choke her or hurt her stomach but everyone says her stomach acids will dissolve it. She has a perfectly normal appetite so far and doesn't seem to be in any discomfort.
I have to spend some time cleaning my bedroom so I can move things out of my hall to make room for our new dryer. I didn't go for a walk tonight because my puppy had been in her crate too long.
I will try to catch up with my buddies tomorrow. Have a good night.

Hi everyone. I am up late since I slept all evening and woke up at 10pm and got up with the puppy. Now I've had two caffeine drinks and I am a bit awake.
I am doing OK with my food but I am not planning ahead enough so I am still not getting all my veggie carbs in but today I got 10 of the 12 so I am doing better. I am making some recipes which is helping. Then I need to follow through to make sure I get the final few carbs of veggies I need. I am doing well staying on Induction plus nuts. It is hard to not eat the cottage cheese and yogurt I was eating in OWL and the fruit. I felt like I was having cravings yesterday. I am back to thinking about quitting the diet drinks again. I know they are bad for me so I am going to cut them out. When I don't drink them I get all my water in but when I drink them forget about getting my water. I have gotten in a terrible habit of drinking 4 sodas a day. I am going to cut them down to 2 tomorrow. Then wean down from there.
Tomorrow I will eat a MIM for breakfast. Then I will try to have a chicken dish for dinner with grilled veggies some kind of stir fry if I can find one. I'll have egg salad or ham or hot dogs w/sauerkraut for lunch. I'll need to have a small salad also.
I am so disorganized since I got the puppy. I really have to start organizing the puppy's schedule into a routine as much as I can. Then I can plan what to do for my activities so I can get a reasonable routine going again. I have been sloppy about the puppy's routine so I can't count on anything as far as a schedule right now.
I have been walking for several days for 30 minutes at a time. My foot has not been hurting so I am doing OK. My foot occasionally still hurts mainly when I drive. I have done my stomach exercises once but it was hard after skipping the exercises for a couple of weeks. I will have to work a bit to get back in shape again.
Tomorrow my plan is to plan my food, take a walk (hopefully 45 min), read and study the Bible, go to church, do my exercises, read my AA meditation, do my spiritual reading and my meditation and pray at least twice a day plus work on my 4th step, call my sponsor and my sponsee. My husband is off work tomorrow so he can keep up with the puppy. I need to work on my house regularly also but I need to get the puppy's routine in place first.
I have been kind of depressed since my routines have been disturbed and my husband has been suffering without a diagnosis. I need to take some steps to feel less powerless.
