Week Seven Review

Wow, I am a total loser. I completely forgot about blogging. I guess that gives you some indication of how last week went, eh?

Actually, I did pretty well. I did not meet all my goals BUT I didn't totally indulge at Thanksgiving. Yes, I ate everything there, but I really tried to watch my portions. I also had two small pieces of pie, but that was quite enough. Once I had my share of the goods, I really felt satisfied and was fairly good for the rest of the day and week. So, yeah for me. I also weighed myself this morning and though I haven't lost more weight, I haven't gained any. Thus, I am feeling pretty good about things for this last week.

My goals for this upcoming week are pretty simple:
1. Exercise 3 times
2. Clean house, well
3. Get out my Christmas cards


I really want to exercise more, and I am trying....so hard! Really. I just find myself lacking the time. Before it was motivation, and now it's time. Dan is on his LAST week of class and will be starting finals next week. Therefore, I have been doing extra trying to make things easier for him. I also am Enrichment Leader in my ward and have been swarmed by the holiday "festivities" and "needs". And, then there's Kate....need I say more? How do people handle more than one kid?

So, I'm really going to push for more exercise. I'm trying to still eat as healthy as I can with my stomach problems. The medicine I am on seems to be helping a little bit, so let's cross our fingers. Also, I think (I emphasize think) that BIO-35 stuff is helping. I do seem to have a little more energy. But, they say to give it a while to kick in----so I'll keep monitoring it.

Sounds like a success if you didn't eat yourself sick on Thanksgiving. I didn't do that either. Yea me! I really don't think two kids are more difficult than one, but Addie is a really good baby. So I think it depends. But after one kid, everything you do revolves around them. It is SO difficult to find time to exercise with a husband that works full time and goes to school full time. 5:00 a.m. is pretty much it, and I'm so not a morning person. Keep my posted on the BIO-35, I'm really interested to see how it goes. Good luck this week!

I think it's a great report!...and just to keep it in perpespective, I have no kids at home, no job, and still can't find time to exercise every day! In spite of the set backs, I think you are keeping on track.

By the way, did you see the couple on the Today Show that have 18 children? All are their own naturally! At first I thought she was going to be a Mormon mother, but it turns out they are a good Christian family from Arkansas. WOW!!!
