Day One

OK...My journey starts today. I just can't call it a diet, that is such a depressing word! It's my last day of Spring Break, so I am spending it planning meals and getting things ready for lunches and dinners. That has always been my downfall - lack of planning. I'm soooo rushed in the mornings, because of my kids  me. I will admitt it, I am not a moring person, my snooze button is my best friend. So I usually end up walking running out the door without my lunch and eating lunch at school. And lets face it y'all, as wonderful as the lunch ladies are at my school, they just dont have a lot to work with. So school lunch is not a dieter's friend!

Goal 1: Get up with my 5am alarm (maybe allow myself one snooze)

Goal 2: Eat breakfast

Goal 3: Prepare my lunch at home

Goal 4: Walk Mon., Wed. (when I don't have a faculty meeting) & Fri.

Goal 5: Snack on fruits and veggies (I cringe)

5 goals...I can do this. (I can do this, I can do this, I can do this)

Breakfast - Egg beaters Muffin

- small container of Egg Beaters

- 100 calorie English muffin

- Half a slice of Borden's Grilled Cheese Melts



Oh What a Day...

As I sit here and ponder my weight loss plan choices, I'm thinking about going into the kitchen and making myself something to eat!

I've been off all week and my goal was to clean my dirty house, and decide what kind of diet I wanted to attempt as I head into Spring and Summer. I have acomplished nothing!

OK, to start, I am at the fattest I've every been in my life. I make excuses to feel better (it doesn't help) like: I've had three kids, I don't have time to take care of myself, my husband loves me the way I am (and he does:). But the bottom line is: I'm not happy. I am tired all the time and have no energy. I would rather sit and watch tv, play on the computer, or read my Kindle then play with my children.

Sunday is Easter, Monday is the big day. I will not fail, I will not fail, I will not fail.
