Every Little Bit Counts!

Ok, so I'm only down 1/2 of a pound, but at least it means I'm into new territory AND and through with that plateau! Happy, Happy! =) 2 weeks ago, I was hoping to be in the 140's this week, but I think it will be next week. (Doubting that I will lose 1 1/2 pounds tonight. Though I will get to sleep in, so it could happen.) I am feeling good in the meantime, so I'm doin' fine!
I am now CPR/AED/First Aid Certified. I went to a class today. I'd never used a defibrillator before, (they are very cool!) and it had been years since I had gotten my CPR and First Aid. Not much has changed...people still bleed the same way and need to be bandaged the same way, hehe. Actually one change I found interesting...they don't have you take the pulse of an unconscious person. You watch and listen for breathing for up to 10 seconds, and then start CPR. People were wasting too much time trying to find a pulse, and every minute you delay giving a heart attack victim CPR and AED, is 10% LESS chance of them surviving. That's huge! I'd rather not have to use my CPR training on someone again, but if I do need to, there will be NO delay!
The Red Cross puts on a good class, with videos and dummies to use, and it's only $54 to get certified in all areas. I HIGHLY recommend it for everyone...you never know who's life will be saved...maybe a loved one's.
I'm having a hungry day today (probably because I could smell the food from the Red Cross's cafeteria all day.) And tomorrow is my day off of shots. I'm going to have to keep myself totally distracted tomorrow so I don't find myself thinking about food all day. I have been kind of keeping track, and 'they' are right. I do find I only have 3-4 hungry days a week. Unfortunately, being a food addict, those days are pretty hard, at times. BUT, I shall prevail! hehe Tootles! =)
