Had a rough night last night. My son has a cold and didn't want to go to sleep last night, finally at 9 pm we brought him into our bed (so he wouldn't wake his sister up) and I layed in bed with him he finally feel asleep prob around 9:45 ish. it was a rough night's sleep since he moves like it is no ones business and he was up for the day at 4:45 am. Dh let me sleep until 6:30 when he had to leave for work, but needless to say I was not in the best of moods still. Must drink Coffee!!!!
Around 9 after son was at school and daughter was napping I had 1/4 cup of ricotta sprinkled with Cinnamon and drizzled with a little honey and shaved almonds and my milk and vanilla protein. My girlfriend came over around 10 with a med. coffee from D&D with cream and sugar in it for me (isn't she sweet?)
Lunch was left over dinner from last night with a glass of water at 12. I plan on walking the track when DH gets home either by myself or if he wants to join then we will take the kids with.
I really hope that I see some sort of change in my weight or body with in 2 weeks even if it is only like a lb or 2, I think this will help me be motivated. I weighted myself this morning around 8:45 after my first cup of coffee before I jumped in the shower and some how I am 1 lb heaver then I was yesterday (and I weighted my self clothed and after eating breakfast, not sure what is going on there).. Guess we will just have to see what happens.

Day 161 follow up
After my son came home from school I took both kids to the track to walk. I was only able to walk it 4 times befire my son was really over the whole thing. For lunch I had a salad with tomatos, strawberries, sunflower seeds and salad dressing along with some water. Around 2:30 I had a cup of coffee with my creamer and 2 sugar. For dinner I made whole wheat pasta with baked Zuccini tossed in olive olil bread ground up into crumbs, 1/4 cup fresh parm cheese, garlic minced, parstly and some lemon zest with a drink of water. It was very light and yummy. No dessert or anything. All in all a good day.

Day 161
I have to admit my day did not start out well. I went to bed telling myself tomorrow is the start of a whole new you, start if off right. Did that happen? No it did not. My son came crawling into our bed at 5 am and decided he didn't want to go back to bed. I started to get aggravated and frustrated, finally the hubby took him downstairs with him so I could get a few more minutes of shut eye. Those few minutes flew by and before I knew it it was time for me to get up with both kids.
Down the stairs I trudged unhappy to to be awake, knowing that the morning would be rough as it always is, wishing my son could stay at school all day long or that I could go to work and leave the kids behind. Horrible I know, but I just didn't have the energy to deal with the temper tantrums and the lack of listening from my son.... Fast forward to 8:45 am, my son is at school and my daughter is down for her nap. Yay!
One cup of coffee in, a bowl of fruit and a cup of milk with vanilla protein powder in my system, and I feel as if I maybe I can do this. Day 161, the first day of the new me.
It's time to take charge and make some changes in my life. No one is going to do it for me and I have just realized that I am not happy, and it is starting to affect my husband and children. I am not living the life I want to live and that needs to END NOW! I know it will be hard and I may want to give up, but I hope this blog will help me keep my focus and help me see how I am changing and progressing.
What things does she want to change you ask yourself? Honestly there is a lot but I know it will all take time, so I have to start somewhere. I have decided that the first thing I want to start and work on is my health. I don't eat well and I am 25-30 lbs heaver then I want to be. I am totally out of shape and it is just so sad. I am sick of being winded from walking up a flight of stairs or not being able to run and play with my children the way I would like. I am tired of hating the way I look and feel. It's time for a change.
Each day I will keep a log of my meals and snacks as well as what type of exercise activity I did that day. I am going to start out slow and just walk for a bit and see where it goes from there. Anything is better then what I am doing now. I am hoping that just changing my eating habits will help me see a difference and help to motivate me to want to to do better.
Starting weight : 145.8 (this was taken at 9:10 am, after I have had my coffee, milk, and fruit. As well as having clothes on. tomorrow I will do it first thing in the morning with or without clothes)
Well that's it for now folks... I will write more later.
