So much happened.....Nicholas turned 11, Morgan turned 10 and my baby turned 5. Wahhhh!!!! I celebrated 12 years of wedded bliss, I started a new job and quit another. I also enbarked on a journey thru nursing school and now feel like a real life grown up who knows what she wants to do with her life......
I am getting back on the horse......it gets easier and easier to fall off.....but I have to do it.....I need to set a positive healthy example for my children and I want to be able to say I DID IT!!!! I want to be the woman I used to be, trim and self confident......New Year, New Me
I just want to tell everyone Merry Christmas.....hope the season is wonderful for you. Be happy, be merry, but above all be safe.....and remember the reason for the season
I dont know why I set myself up for disaster like this. I know I get out of school at 3pm, by the time I get Carlie and get home its 3:30, 3:45. So why do I schedule to go to work at 5pm??????? I basically have 45 minutes to throw the kids and myself and dh some food before I have to head out the door for work......and most times I have to run the kids to my moms.....so unless we want cereal or pbj its pretty much fast food.
So yday I did really good with the eats and exercise, and today I went over calories by 300 and am still hungry.....all b/c instead of eating something good and nutritious I eat mcnuggets.......seriously why do I set myself up for disaster like that
I am never able to keep a new years resolution, so I am starting it a few weeks early, that way I am already in the game when new years rolls around. My goal is to lose 40 lbs by June.....Its only 7 lbs a month I can do it.
Tonight I worked out for 25 minutes, did my walk away the pounds dvd, 2 mile walk. I will start with that for the first month and next month kick it up to the walk/kick or something, got switch it up so I dont get bored......
Starting weight is 164......
goal weight is 120.....
I will hit it!!!!
Stay tuned!!
My very good friend from childhood now lives in Fla and I dont get to see her very often, in fact I havent seen her for years. But its amazing how a phone call reconnects people. We were able to discuss our children, laugh about life and wonder how it is that little kids we used to babysit are grown with children.......I love to talk on the phone with her
whew!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was a toughie and will only get harder, but I ended up with a B in both Foundations of Nursing and Therapeutic Management and an A in Nursing Assessment!!!!!!
this tri will be tough, its Anatomy and Physiology I, Nursing Assessment II and Therapeutic Management II.........wish me luck!!!!!
As is our tradition, the tree went up Thanksgiving weekend. I went into Martha Stewart mode, as always, but the kids survived it!!
