A little hard to keep motivated

There always comes a point where things in life tend to take over the time and mind of a person. Right now that is happening to me. Life is getting complicated and I am having a hard time keeping my mind in the zone I need it to be in for weight loss. I did walk this week, but am trying to get to it today and I'm having a hard time convincing myself that I need to do it.
I am pretty sure I will, but I have so many other things that need to get done today also.
Ok, no more writing, I'm going to work out right now!
See ya!

Same weight this week

I appear to not have moved on the scale. I actually think I may not have eaten enough this week.
I worked out a lot, mostly five miles each day and ate under 1300 calories every day. But I also upped my weight lifting so that may account for the no change. But maybe I'll have a bigger number next week to make up for this week.
Birthday party today for Scarlett! She's turning five on Monday, but we had the party today since tomorrow is Easter and Monday is a school day.
Faith and Ben came for the birthday.
We had a nice time. I am not feeling too good right now, belly troubles. I think it's because I ate birthday cake, and I haven't had anything like that for a good month and a half.
So, anyway, that's all for now!
Until next time!

Another three pounds bite the dust

Fantastic news on the weight loss front. Three pounds gone. They will not be missed.
Been crazy and busy here with Josh working eight days in a row with no day off. And now it's great because I am about to go into my sewing room and get working. It's just been a while since my last post so I thought I'd better get on it!
Total weight loss to date is 18 lbs.
I am very proud of that. And I have been working very hard. Although I could probably do more working out. But I don't think I'd better push it, I don't want to burn myself out. I already do one hour a day. But I may try to add in more dancing or something extra. Also it will be easier to get in extra activity for myself and the kids once the weather improves and we can take trips to Fort Stevens and do the lake and some hikes and walking on the beach. Those are always fun things to do.
Also I am thinking once we have a good job that it would be nice to find out how I can get Hannah signed up to learn horse back riding. I think she would be amazing at it. I just don't know if there is something if you don't actually own a horse. Because I know we aren't going there, Horses are crazy expensive to keep.
