eat healthier & exercise more

I lost a stone since I last check up on this, wooh! I’m going to get a new bicyle this month,seeing as spring is in now and there’s no snow I will be able to be a lot more active.

I like going to the lakes, and walking my dogs, and doing the trail ni the local forest,I am just sooo not a gym person, and have a prediliction for cakes & chocolate. When I was excavating this made nooo difference to me, i could eat like a horse and not gain an ounce, now I am more or less sedentry [come on walking the pugs is hardly exercise]

I should give up sweet things; I’ve cut down a lot, like i will get 4 handmade chocs when i’m doing my shopping as opposed to a giant box, and a nice rose or a dvd instead of cake :( I miss cake.

So the day i started my list i said to myself if i’m going to write all this crap i want to do down i might as well start right now, so i did. I am self proclaimed soda addict and there is always one of those giant 24 can cubes of pepsi in my kitchen, water honestly sucked at first but it’s getting better, it’s only been 2 days but i can tell you myself my stomache doesn’t feel as bloated, excercising with my kids is quite hard so i find turning on some music and dancing gives me a pretty good work out, they enjoy it! i just hope i have the disappline to continue

I’ve gotten chubby since graduation, and put on 5lbs over christmas.
It’s time to eat healthy & walk the pugs more.

Well im a vegetarian so im doing pretty good eating healthy, i try to splurge on junky foods adn i have been at work lately.. like.. all day, its a pain! but i havent been able to much else, though MY work, is excercise; i still need to try to exercise more outside of work! Im going to buy a bike!

This is what I want to do in my life I would like to make planes and get to 100 pounds before 6 grade.

...starts with a single step. I think that’s how it goes. A good friend reminded me of that yesterday. Over the last couple of months I have managed to steadily lose 37 pounds, which in itself I am really pleased with, but I still have a long way to go. So yesterday I found myself, with the help of said friend, taking the tour at a local gym. I was nervous, I expected to feel lost and out of place. But I didn’t. The woman who showed us around was fantastic. She was very reassuring and completely understanding of all of my fears and uncertainties. Within minutes she put me at ease and reinforced the feeling that this will be a good thing. No. It will be great. I know there are other ‘big girls’ like me who would love to be able to take the first step that I have just taken, and all I can say to them is fight the fear and go for it. I’m already glad that I have!

I kinda started this one a few weeks ago and happily I have managed to lose 25 pounds so far. I have a long way to go yet but I’m really pleased, as this is the first time I’ve actively set out to lose weight. I’ve said that I’m going to before, but just not really bothered, but this time it feels like I don’t have a choice – it will happen. I have taken a really hard look at what I eat and realised that between what I eat (mostly) and portion sizes (a little) it was all just completely wrong. For a reasonably intelligent person, I simply had no idea what was in the food I had been eating. It came as a bit of a revelation to be honest. Anyway, got clued up on that side of things – have just got to sort out the exercise side now, which completely surprisingly I’m really looking forward to.
