Beautiful Evening

It's a beautiful evening in southern California.  I am sitting outside listening to my kids giggle and play on the little child's porch swing.  It's just so precious to hear my daughter giggle.  I am so blessed to have two great kids.  Sometimes I don't really use my time wisely when I am off work and home with them.  I have to remember that time goes by so fast and they are only this young once.  I think I am going to put them in the jogging stroller tomorrow morning while my husband sleeps and take them to the park.  It will be good exercise for me as well fun for them.

We are going to go to the Harvest Crusade at Angels stadium on Sunday.  Mercy Me and Jeremy Camp are supposed to be preforming.  Should be a nice family outing after Church.

This week has gone well.  I am still on track.  I haven't been as strict about things this week, but doing pretty good.  I saw 197 on the scale on Thursday morning before my run and 195 after my run.  It's encouraging seeing  a lower number.  I just need to get a little more disciplined and I'll be back on the road to actually losing weight and not maintaining it.

This coming week I hope to actually start using my little in home work out equipment I bought off of a friend a few months ago.  Prove to my husband it wasn't a waste of money and space since it's in our livingroom. haha.

Time flys

Well hello there little blog.  It's been a few weeks since I last posted.  There hasn't been anything special going on lately.  I ran/walked a 5k on 8/5 pushing my two kids in a stroller.  It was at the OC Fair grounds and after the race we stayed and went to the fair.  It was a pretty good day.  I haven't lost any more weight in the last few weeks, but I haven't gained any either.  I weighed on Tuesday after my run/walk and the scale showed 197.  I keep telling myself I'm going to get back at it and I just don't fully commit to eating and exercise the way that I should in order to lose. It's been extremely hot here lately and it doesn't help my motivation to work out.  BUT, I will not stop trying.  I just need to give myself a pep talk.
