Keep on Moving…
Okay so Sunny said it last post.. I am certainly not going to lose 8 lbs in 3 weeks at the current pace.
Right now the eating is good, but not perfect, and the exercise is roughly 2 hours a week, which includes mowing my lawn, doing some yard work and going for a walk.
So yesterday, I mowed the backyard.. today I did my Walk Away the Pounds workout and I’m going to take the girls out for a long walk today. I think I have been burning up some calories with all the cleaning I’ve been doing too. Yesterday after mowing, I decided to weigh myself, and I got 176.8, which was exciting, but it was gone by this morning, back in the 177s as predicted.
I plan to do the Walk Away the Pounds every day. I’ll kind of make it my rule that I have to do that before posting anything. I was doing it this morning and Yumna comes and pretends to hand me a star.
“Here’s your star Mama cause you’re exercising”
“Thanks Yumna”
“Give it back Mama.. you can’t have your star until your done”
I couldn’t help but laugh.. she obviously understand the concept of a reward system a little too well.
Tonight we’re supposed to go to my friend’s house around 8:30pm for coffee and then tomorrow I’m in an Arabic calligraphy workshop with my sister all day, and in the evening my cousin will be coming to stay with us from California. Sunday, they are going apartment hunting and I’m taking the kids for a BBQ that my cousin is holding at a local park. I’m already tired thinking about all the things I have to do.
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend

I have 2 Leslie Sanone DVDs and I love them. I’ve found that when i do them I lose more than my regular walking outside.
Good luck!
LOL @ yumna. that’s one smart cookie.
calligraphy? neat. i bought a self-teach kit once. didn’t go over very well. i have neat handwriting to begin with but i just can’t get a hang of all the “curlies”. wonder if doing an actual class would prove to be more fruitful.
enjoy your weekend.
That’s the cutest thing ever- did she give back your star when you were done
Ha! Your girl is so cute! Go get that bike and get moving!
Congrats on making a good choice! Give it a week, and wait ’til you see the results! Yumna is a doll; sounds a lot like my youngest was; extremely precocious. LOL
Thanks ladies.. its all this encouragement from 3FC and this blog that keep me going. Really every time I think about it, I am sure I would of quit long long before this.
