Well I’m basically starting new. I weigh 192. At the most I weighed 198, I exercised in the morning and that dropped me down a little, but then I plateaued at 190. Then I got an inflamed tendon on my foot (I have a heel spur) and I was supposed to stay off my foot. As I am a teacher it was hard to keep off my foot while school was on. Now that school is off for the break I am staying off my foot. Still doesn’t help me in the exercise department.

To lose weight I will make a menu plan that will be reduced calorie. I will unfortunately not be able to exercise for a week or more (I hope not more). If my foot is better in a week I will start exercising.

SO I am starting this again. I mean again because I got busy with school (I’m a teacher) and I let eating better slide. So now that I’m not in a classroom for 10 hours a day I do have time to plan a better menu. I need to lose weight as well, but that is a separate (but related) goal.

Today I will plan a better menu.

So I look here for the latest entry, AND ITS NOT EVEN THIS MONTHS! LOL. Thats because teachers are busy.

I am trying to be a better teacher. I need to look up stuff for my kids to do, hands on activities, so they do not get bored with the science. I teach HS biology and physical science. They want all students to be writing proficient (all kids, ELL and Special Ed) and be ready for state testing. So that means I run out of time to do the hands on fun stuff.

So hard to plan a lab to do in 1 period as well. So this is why I need to be a better teacher. To teach my kids science, and maybe to get them to love science, while still preparing them for the state TESTS!

Yucky state test!
