New focus

To keep my mind off of adoption, is that possible, and prepare for parenting John and I have decided that it's time to get a little healthier. He's been feeling blah for a while now and my epiphany came while I was watching Dance your ass off, pint of Ben and Jerry's in hand, and realized that the people on the show weigh less than I do! So, we're on day 2 and so far so good. We've gotten up an hour early and walked together before John leaves for work, had grilled veggies for dinner last night, weighed out and counted John's food for lunch. Overall I think it's going ok. I'm home during the day so it requires slightly more self discipline not to snack all day. Wish me luck. My cousin told me we would be great parents because we are young at heart. And as I told her this young at heart mama can't run fast or far anymore let alone keep up with a toddler. Time to work my ass off, literally.

I wish I had the motivation! There is also another great site that you can log your food intake and it keeps track of cal/fat/protein/fiber, etc. It's sparkpeople.com.


I look forward to following your adoption blog & await the wonderful news that you will become parents!
