Mom...My Ultimate Example

I remember when I just had Addy and Mom was visiting to help....and she was GREAT help.  She would make me the yummiest meals.  Spinach, tomato, cucumber sandwiches on whole wheat bread.  Stir fry with a million and one veggies...mmm, everything tastes better when Mom makes it.  I love how she effortlessly eats healthy.  Maybe its that she has no kids at home, thus less temptations. Or maybe she's older and wiser, or maybe she just doesn't want the consequences of eating poorly. My guess, its all three and probably more reasons than that. I'm so glad MOM'S in this too!  We need you Mom!  And great exercise goals...you can do it!

I totally forgot to share my exercise goals. Exercising is something that I LOVE to do and makes me a better Mom, wife and friend.  I am running the same 20k(12.4 miles) in June that I run every year. I'm hoping to get my best time.  This will be the 4th time in 5 years. I had to skip the year Piper was born three days earlier.  I'm also planning on the same 1/2 marathon that I do here in DSM.  That one is in October.  So...anyway, realistically I'm shooting for 4-5days a week.  Running and also resistance training. 

On another note, my friend Jessica challenged her family to not watch TV for 30 days and they made a paper chain for the 30 days.  I'm TOTALLY doing that.  But for me....one link for every pound lost!  I'm thrilled about it.  I don't get out much. :)

Alrighty...it's 1:40 and I have officially given up sugar for over 12 hours!!!  Go me, right?  The real test will be this weekend when we have a BUNCH of Kevin's family here to celebrate birthdays.  I can do it right?  Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels.Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels.Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels. I'll be chanting.

Have a fabulous day!  I need to figure out what deliciously unhealthy recipes I'm going to be making for my company. :)
