In the News

Today I watched a program on Fox News that talked about obesity, http://video.foxnews.com/#/v/4350860/fatter-future-for-america/?playlist_id=86892



This makes me think yet again about this thing that I am doing. I guess over the past few weeks I have mentally checked out. I have thought to myself, I have gotten to my goal I can take a break....

Well, I have realized that I can't. I am not where I should be. I am still part of those overweight numbers they talked about in the video. I also don't want my kids to be that way. Since, I buy the food, prepare the food and encourage everyone to eat the food, I better do a good job, because it will be my fault if they are unhealthy as kids.

Lastly, I think that even though I made it to my goal, if I don't watch out what I eat, I will be right back up to where I was before....

So now.... IT'S ON!

It's been a while

I figured I would follow the advice given and write a new post, because there has been some progress.

I HAVE MADE IT TO MY FIRST GOAL!

I am the same weight as I was before I got pregnant. This is exciting.

Now on to conquer my next one. 150 lbs. This might actually be harder than the past goal, because I really have to make some permanent changes, such as really making exercise a hight priority.

Priorities are funny things. They seem to change often in my life, but the one thing I have noticed is that the people I look up to in terms of fitness, always have it in their top things to do each day (if not the top thing to get done). There are many things that take time and energy, and I hope that I can balance all the demands on my time so that I can accomplish all of my goals.
