It's snowing out and I am hanging out here still in my jammies! What a great way to spend a cold, snowy afternoon. I even got to spend an hour and a half of uninterrupted time with The Man. It reminded me of the days before kids. Not that I am saying I regret the kids of course. It just was a nice break from reality!
So onto the next thing...I went to the doctor this week for a physical. My bloodwork shows that I need to lose weight. Shocker, right? Oh and my blood pressure is up too. She was far more concerned about that then my bloodwork though. So I am onto making an effort to eat 3 meals a day. I am also attempting to keep track of my calorie intake with this handy app on my ipod. If I can maintain it for the next few weeks than I think that I am going to sign up for Weight Watchers online. And I am going to make a better attempt at using my Wii fit as well. The Man got me the Biggest Loser Wii game for Christmas and I find so far that I like it better than the one that came with the balance board. This time I am hoping that knowing I have to go back to the doctor for a weight check in 3 months will be enough to keep me motivated.
A good friend of mine is also going to help contribute to my wellness plan by sending me a bunch of easy recipes to try. I don't cook! So that also needs to change if I am to make this weight loss thing work. We did well last week with a meal plan and I am hoping to continue that upward swing. I think that making a plan for the week that accomodates everyone's schedules (since I apparently sold my soul to the local skating club for E to continue learning to skate!) will be most beneficial. I have another friend that also showed me how she grocery shops based on her meal plan and what is in her freezer. So basically, I think that I have the tools I need to make it work this time...only time will tell though!
