People noticing

I have been exercising and watching what I eat and how much I eat.  I weighed myself and I weigh 202.  Yeah I have lost a total of 25 pounds now.  I feel great.  It is not easy.  You have to learn to say no and walk away.  I still have a hard time but I keep praying and reminding myself I need to do this to be healthier.  Well this morning I went to the store to get some Tea and the cashier asked me how much I have lost.  I told her and she said she noticed it in my face.  So I talked to her and shared with her how I was doing it and she said she is gonna try it.  I told her if she needed to talk to get ahold of me.  I felt so good after this because someone other than family and friends noticed it and I also shared with someone who is very interested in getting healthier.  Then my sister in law was asking lots of questions today and I shared with her too and my mother in law.  I am so excited about myself and more of my family members getting healthy.

Here we go again

I am loving my new outlook on life.  I love the food and my family is also adjusting.  my new theory is to live one day at a time.  There has been plenty of challenges in my life the last week.  First I got sick then my daughter got pneumonia.  They thought she had mono but PTL it was not.  I feel like all I have been doing is praying.  Everything is starting to get back to normal and we are getting more snow.  UUUGGGHHHH It is pretty good cause I get to work out more but I am ready for spring and to start running.

Not feeling so hot

I am in Syracuse with my family.  We went to the carousel mall yesterday.  We walked the mall for 4 hours.  I am starting to get sick.  I hope I can get rid of it without medicine.  I am still running alot and watching what I eat.  I treat every day as a new day.  You never know what God is gonna throw at you.  my new theory is to take it one day at a time.  Still waiting for spring to arrive so I can get my bike out and start riding.

Snow needs to go away

I have been doing alot of exercising due to all the snow we have had.  I am getting better at Zumba.  My husband I went to the mall yesterday and instead of using the esculator we walked up and down the steps.  I am not as lazy as I used to be.  I am starting to feel better about myself again.  I am loving all the new foods and how they taste with no added salt or sugar.  oh I weighed myself on Thursday and I weighed 208.  I lost another 4 pounds.  I am so happy.  My goal is 155.  I am hoping by this summer I can get new clothes.  My husband told me if I can get to size 8 to 10 again he would buy me a whole new wardrobe.  Yes then I can shop something to look forward to.

Temptations

The last week has been filled with temptations.  We had our daughters birthday party and there were alot of temptations.  Yes I did eat a piece of pizza and a piece of cake.  I did pay for it after.  I was sick to my stomach.  I know now that my stomach is changing.  Zumba kicks my butt when I do it.  My hips have been so sore but I need to change my life for the better.
