Not where I want to be....

But better than where I was!!  That is my attitude today. I am back on track and feeling better physically and emotionally already! I have found myself in the pool or basement with the Wii for exercise these days because it is just too darn hot out!  Flat bread pizza, salads and fresh fruits are my staples. I also found some little turkey sticks(like beef jerky) that are good, loaded with protein and 80 cals per serving. Aldi has some amazing cool treats that are low calorie, but tasty and refreshing. I didn't weigh myself this morning because I didn't want to discourage myself if I have gained. I will weigh in next week. Thanks for the words of encouragement and love!  Keep cool~C

I need to remember this!  I am back on track:)

OUCH!!

Well, I fell off the wagon hard.  I am sad to say I lost track and drive for the last couple of weeks.  I am disappointed in myself, but realize I just need to pick myself back up and get going again. This is usually the time where I give up and say "I can't do this, " but not this time! I need to do this...I am tired of being over weight and it isn't going to change unless I make it happen!  Here's to a new beginning, beginning today:) Thank you for stopping by and supporting me.

Still going strong!

Well, it has been awhile since I left a post. I have been busy enjoying the summer. It has been 2 years since I have been able to actually get out and do fun in the sun! I have been spending days in the pool with my great friend, Terri. Since it has been in the 90's, I am thankful for this opportunity. I am still walking 2 miles 5-7 nights a week. Some nights are easier than others, but I am pushing myself. The scale has not been too friendly as of late, but I am sure that's because my body is getting used to all the exercise:)  I am feeling my clothes fit differently (in a good way) so I know things are changing. This week brings the 4th and celebration with family and friends. I am sure I will struggle at times, but I have learned not to beat myself up when I fall, just stand back up and get going again.  Enjoy your week and I will catch up with you soon! Love~C
