That which does not kill us...

...makes us stronger, or at the very least clinically insane. My long journey through infertility, adoption (and now parenting), and weight loss.

when was the last time

That I posted 3 days in a row. Yay, me! I'll take all the victories I can get; albeit they might be small.

I have a plan. Not well vetted yet, but it is in the works. Here is the 'outline' of the plan:

1) I can't go full force the way I did it last time. Not for lack of drive, but for lack of the same contributing factors (this single parent thing, the parent thing in general, time or lack thereof).

2) BUT, that is not going to stop me from getting started. This is a big step for me, since I am usually an all or nothing kind of girl.

3) I am putting my calories spreadsheet back on my desktop so that I know every single calorie going in every day. Like I said, it is all about accountability with me.

4) I will resurrect (sp?) my goal spreadsheet where I track my weight progress and see how close I am to reaching my near and long term goals

5) My a$$ is getting on the treadmill (even if only for 10 minutes) every day. I will probably have to start with some jog/walking but my goal is to be a jogger/runner again.

6) Avoid sweets, heavy fat foods and focus on veggies for dinner. Not as strict yet on breakfast and lunch, but those are next. Lean meats and tons of veggies for dinner. I can do that.

7) Water, water everywhere. I have been drinking more water lately, but still not enough. I bring a 32 ounce bottle with me to work each day and I need to not just drink it (but refill and drink it again).

Those are my goals to get this thing started again. I will keep adding on and reporting on my progress here. Any other advice, words of encouragement, etc. I could use it.
