Believe It Or Not, But....

....I'm still HERE!!  LOL

I've gotten of track with walking and my eating habits.  It hasn't left my mind though and  I'm hoping to start back up soon.  I just find it hard with the garden and all, that I don't have time to get out there for a walk.  But I NEED to MAKE time, so I'm going to just have to get up and go.  :)   I have been "exercising" out in the garden, but I know it is not the same.  :)  My weight has gone up 3 pounds too, so talk about discouraging and also getting me to think of getting back to WORK!!  :)

Anyway, that is a tiny update from me and I hope the rest of you my friends have been doing better than me.  :)

P.S I've kept up with my reading my Bible through in a year plan and it has been so good!  I'm in the book of Psalms and Acts.  :)

I can't do this alone, this keeps me walking in humility...

How do you find the Time

How/where do you find the time to exercise??  I've been NOT walking lately and just feeling a bit depressed about the whole thing, I guess.  I wanted to walk 500 miles this year and I'm way behind and right now have zero desire to even try and catch up, although while typing that, I felt a tiny spark of courage to actually try to do that!  LOL

So my question is where do you find the time and when do you try to exercise as in waht time of the day??

Ok, I had better go and check my waffles!!

Be right back!!  :)

Ok, waffles are looking good, have a couple seconds before I make the next one.  Hee hee

I was getting up before 7am and walking, but that hasn't been happening the last few weeks, my alarms goes off and I don't get up.

I need to do it in the morning before breakfast, because after breakfast, my mornings are then filled with school, dish washing, school checking and lunch making, plus I try to squeeze in a couple loads of laundry and hung out on the line.  :)  Afternoons are more free for gardening, sewing and that sort of thing.  We won't be able to take school off completely this summer, that is a whole other story.  So once summer is here, we will do gardening and outside work in the morning and school doing the hot part of the day.  That is my plan anyways.

So my days feel full and I don't know when/how to fit in exercising.  So please share what works for you.  I know I should just get up early, but that is hard.....

So, I'm all ears.....  :)

Ok, back to my waffle making....  P.s the children are thrilled to be having waffles for supper!!  :)

Another p.s I've been keeping up with my Bible reading.  it has been good!  I'm in 2 Chronicles in the old Testament and in the Gospel of John in the New Testament.  It has been good and a blessing.  Some of Chronicles was dry, but it is all recorded for a purpose.  :)

Ok, I'm done rambling for now!  No time to proof read, so I hope this all makes sense!!  LOL 

Tanya  thinks she should buy another waffle maker, takes to long to make a batch of waffles for a large family with just one waffle maker.  LOL  :)

Where I'm At

Sorry, I had a headache all day, so I just did what I had to do and took a nap in the afternoon. :) If you all have time.... I know you all have lots of time with nothing to do! LOL!! Can you share here in a comment what your meal plan/exercise looks like? I have been talking to dh and I have yet to come up with what I should do. Cut out all sugars and more protein and less carbs I'm thinking. I just haven't had a chance to sit down and write out a plan. So that is where I am at right now. I need a boast!!! I'm writing this out on my iPod, hopefully there is not many errors. Lol

Ok!!

I'm going to try and join in with Brandy, Nataly and Angie!!

I'll be back with more details tomorrow.  :)

Still Here :)

I'm still here and have been walking 10 miles a week.  I haven't been as careful with how many sweets I eat during the week, so my weight hasn't dropped much or if any.  I will weigh in tomorrow morning and see how it is, I won't even be surprised if it is up a bit.  :(

I need to get motivated to eat less and exercise more.  :)

Otherwise in other news, I've been busy and soon I'll be gardening as well.  I can't wait to get in the garden, I was hoping to get in the garden this week, but it has rained every day this so far. I think tomorrow it is suppose to be sunny and for the next few days, so I just might get in the garden.  :) 

We also took a weekend trip to PA and met Susanna and family plus some other wonderful families. It was so worth the drive!! 

I've been also busy with homeschooling, house organizing, sewing and whatever else comes my way.  LOL  :)

Blessings all and I hope to have more encouraging news regarding weight loss etc next time!!  :)

Not much new

Still 165, so no change!  I'll see what the scale says on Thursday.  :)

My neighbour may start walking with me at least for half of my walk, she wants to start out with just 1 mile.  That will be fun!

Otherwise, not a whole lot to post about....

Thrilled!!

Weigh in day and I'm down a pound, I've now gotten the lowest yet since starting this journey in January. 

I'm 165.6lbs!!! 

Still have at least 10 pounds to go, but I'm thrilled and this was even after not being as careful with what I was eating this past week.

I've been walking first thing every morning before 7am and hubby came alone with me this morning, which was such a treat!

So that is my update for today.  I have diapers to change and it is time to set to work, I was out this morning with piano lessons and grocery shopping.  Now I'm home and ready to start the day!  LOL

Will catch up on you all later...
