Wow - the saddle seems really high...

I think I’ve had better luck at changing my blogger templates lately than actually losing weight. I really like this 3-column layout though. There are a few more things I want to add to the columns, but I’ll get to that later.

Soooooo – healthy living eh? Not happening here. I’ve actually gained weight. Though it doesn’t register on my scales (they’re sketchy at working anyway…been through to many moves) it really shows in my stomach and face. My face is the first place you can see weight gain/loss – and it’s showing a gain!

So today I am posting before I go to the grocery store in hopes that it will keep me accountable to making wise food choices. The truth is – the worse I eat, the worse I feel. The less I exercise the less energy I have. I know this in my head – but actually
doing something about it is a whole other matter.

So here I go again – attempting to do better this week. I plan to make healthy food choices at the store – and maybe tonight make a reasonable exercise schedule. Even if it’s sit-ups and strength training in front of Sesame Street in the mornings. I gotta learn to work with my resources! =)

Alrighty – I wish you all a wonderful and productive week!

Girl, I know exactly how you feel.....I took one week off from running because I was caring for my friend Michael 24/7 and now I can't even run half-way to the stopsign!!! It is soooooo depressing how hard weightloss and being healthy can be....HOWEVER.....You are definitely doing the right thing because the ONLY response can be to get up and try again and just keep getting up and trying again!!! It's what is right for your health and your happiness! You are SO right that exercising gives you the energy you need and eating healthy makes you feel good! Just keep trying and pressing on because you are doing so well by simply just admitting that these are changes that need to be made!! As the boys keep getting older and more independent your personal time will grow a little more. You are such an amazing mom and I really don't know how you do it!! Be proud of all that you have accomplished and try not to get too down on yourself. You are making the right choice to start over and keep trying!!!!

I know how you feel too. It seems a lot of us are having issues with this lately. Take it one day at a time!
