Hey,
This week was great. I started my exercise goals this week in my weight loss program (self created). I'm using EA Active for Wii, it's challenging, and fun. I love it. I admit I am a bit sore after my first work out, my back muscles will be much stronger if the soreness is any indication.
Yesterday I got to hang out with my friend Leslie! It was a blast and exactly what I needed, men just don't understand the need for "girl time". We went to books-a-million and read parts of a couple of biographies. I read about a woman's quest to lose weight. It was hilarious. Leslie got a memoir about autism. We enjoyed fruit smoothies and lots of chatting. Then we went over to my new favorite clothing store, Cato, and looked at lots of gorgeous clothes. I told her all about the things I'm doing to lose weight, and the charts I made to break it down and track my progress. Then we ate mexican. Mexican is very different down here then it is back home.
When we got back to my place Cody was home from work and playing 360. So I left him be and we went to the bedroom to make her own weightloss plan. She is very excited, and I am really glad that I can help her out. Plus it's nice to have someone close by to share the journey with. It really is a journey.
Well, it's no longer insanely difficult for me to watch my food and count my calories. My mom always said it takes 21 days to form a habit, and I've done it. YAY. My next habit will be 5 workouts a week, hmmm, that could be tougher. Especially if I'm going to be this sore everytime I work out. But we'll see, my body can only protest my lack of couch potatoeness for so long before it gives up and I win!
Let's see, other things...I've started a new scripture study ritual which is awesome. Now I feel lighter in body and spirit!
I still miss my family, but I'm sure that will be the case forever. Love to all!
