June 23, 2016

Day 10 of exercising and day 4 of my diet. Was using 2lb weights, but moved up to 3lb today! You wouldn't think 1lb would be much of a difference! Speaking of weights, I'm not brave enough to check the scale yet! I think I'll wait until the 1 week mark! So far doing good staying away from carbs and sugar. I haven't craved them at all, in fact looking at them makes me sick! I was behind someone in the checkout yesterday and he had 2 packs of soda and a box of ice cream bars! I thought I was going to have a sugar buzz just being close to it! Yuck!

Been busy working on outdoor projects since it hasn't got too hot yet! I hate being cooped up all winter so I'm trying to spend as much time outside as possible! It's much easier now that I cleaned up our front porch and have a nice table and chairs out there. We did have big bushes hiding the porch, so we would throw all our junk there! But I ripped out all the bushes, so we have to keep it clean! Put on a huge flower box across the rails and put in a new walk way! I'm kinda sad that I am running out of projects to do out here, but it is getting hot!

Gettin back on track

It has been a while! Life is so hectic and crazy! I've been exercising routinely for a week now, so I think I'm finally ready to get myself into a schedule and actually get stuff done, instead of just eat, sleep, clean, repeat.

We have been saying the rosary EVERY night since Ash Wednesday! That has definitely helped improve things!

So, I'm going to track my progress here! My goal is to lose 20-25 pounds, exercise every day, keep praying the rosary. I'm  hoping getting my physical and spiritual life in order will help cause everything else to start falling in line!  I should do a before picture, but I really hate pictures of myself! Maybe tomorrow!

Starting point: current weight 140lb, arms 12 1/2 inches, waist 32 inches, hips 39 inches.
