    Good job! I'm loving going to the gym these days. It is usually one of the highlights of my day. Before this diet, I didn't have the energy to go as much as I should have even if I wanted.

    I do enjoy it, however, it is hard making it work into the schedule.

    I am finding it hard to manage 50+ hrs a week working plus wanting to spend time with the family plus now taking care of the added responsibility's on the homestead with the baby animals. I know I need to make time for myself (the gym falls into this category). But as with most things I sacrifice my time to do other things that I view as being more important.

    I do try to go at least 2 times a week though. And when I get home I feel so much more productive around the house.

    Very busy indeed, however, come summer it should lighten up a little. Plus I can use summer chores outside as my exercise. As busy as it is right now I wouldn't change it. I like working, I like doing the animal chores, and I like being able to show my little girl what it is like to be a strong hard working woman. So many kids these days have an entitlement mentality, I don't want her to have that. I wasn't raised that way and she won't be either.

    Had a huge dinner tonight plus ice cream for dessert, it all taste good but I way over indulged and now I feel like I'm gonna pop. :s

    Down 28 lbs and I couldn't go any farther without getting new clothes. I've been holding off knowing that I had more to lose but all of my work clothes were becoming too big to look professional.

    Now I am not the girl that likes to shop, I really don't like clothes shopping and I prefer to save money as opposed to spending it (read cheap) but I had no choice.

    I also got a haircut, now I look like a completely different person.

    OK it's been a while but I am still here. Personal sickness, plus doing stuff around the farm, plus a husband who found out he has to have major surgery and is limited on what he can do before the surgery has put mfp on the back burner. The good news is I am at the place (weight) I was before life got in the way. This is reassuring to know that life can throw a curve ball but I can still manage to get by without relying on food to help me through.
    I am going to be off work for the month for a vacation and then my husband's surgery so I plan on increasing the exercise and of coarse posting more. Have a great week everyone. :)
