1/21/2008 1/21 Still trying to get into an exercise routineI have still been trying to get myself into an exercise routine. We swam a couple of times, but not routinely. I was going to start today in the weight room at the school, but I forgot it was a school holiday today so tomorrow will have to do. I will update tomorrow with some pictures of my first real workout and whether or not I made it through without getting sick or passing out
As for food, I have been sticking to my calories and have been trying to make sure I am eating whole grains and fruits and veggies as opposed to all the fat and white flour I normally eat. I think I am doing okay. Same goes for Adam. I think I talked Adam into doing a video blog so maybe we can get more of an idea of how he is really feeling. He has had the cold the rest of us had last week so he is a little tired, but hopefully he will do it today. We have had a tough week as far as arguing about everyday things, but we have never stopped encouraging, motivating, and complimenting each other as far as weight loss is concerned. It is still hard when you are not getting along as well as you could be. This is where I begin to get discouraged because of everyday life gets a little rough. Not this time, nothing can make me quit now because my life and the lives of my children depend on me succeeding.
I am still weighing myself too much so I know tomorrow weigh in is going to be disappointing, but I won't let the cat out of the bag until tomorrows official weigh-in.
Lastly, the thing I am most happy about is the eating habbits of my children. They are eating things I never thought I would see them eat. The chicken nuggets and french fries are out and my daughters new favorite food is salad with light ranch dressing. My son is cleaning his plates of veggie stir fry and not complaining. They are tasting every veggie and when they don't like it I wait a coupole of days and try again. They are doing better than I am with the veggies. I hate most veggies, but I am trying. They are eating brown rice, whole wheat pasta, whole wheat bread, drinking water, milk, and juice and loving it. I am so proud of them. I could not have hoped for anything better.
Well, until next time...
