  • I started C25K this morning. The first workout is walk 5 minutes, then alternate between jogging for 90 seconds and walking for 90 seconds until you have finished a 30 minute workout. I made it the whole 30 minutes so I was very proud. My goal to complete the C25K workouts for week one that entails doing this workout 2…
  • Wednesday wish - that my husbands workers comp settlement would start moving again. We really need to get caught back up after him being off work for 6 months. So my biggest wish is not to be wondering if and how we will meet the bills each month. gigi

  • Wednesday Wish: #1 That I had more energy. #2 That I would be a little stronger at saying no when I know that realistically I am stretched as far as I can possibly go. #3 That I can keep a positive, sweet and giving attitude all the days of my life. (my tendency is to be sarcastic and catty) LOL Have a great day everyone,…
  • Good morning everyone. Well yesterday was a interesting day first off like I said in a post yesterday DH fixed breakfast and cooked a pound of bacon for the 2 of us.

  • My thoughts on this is take a picture of yourself now and scrap a page about it. Also you can scrap your challenges and successes. Maybe for me since drinking water is an issue I will take a pic of a glass of water and scrap about it, or you could take a pic your tennis shoes or exercise equipment. This is your story of…
  • Thursday Truth: I am rarely able to eat fruits and veggies because of the price. :( But I am also more determined then ever to exercise with more consistency. I have even went to one of my friends and ask her to come to the local gym with me for at least a month. Hoping if she gets in the habit and enjoys it then I can…
  • Wishes Wednesday.... I wish I was at goal weight but I will get there eventually. What I really really really wish is that our finances would get in order so that I could afford to buy more healthy food. Fruits and veggies are really high so it leads us to eating more "bad for you food" because of the price. :( Any way…
