Our new life

So basically...yes so far I have embarrassed myself with my earlier posts saying that I was going to post everyday and not loosing any weight. But I would like to defend myslef and say that it has been a lot harder for me this time around then it used to be. I used to be able to loose weight really easily by doing what I was doing, and I have discovered that this time I am going to have to work much harder.

We have been in our new home for three weeks and are loving every second of it. The moving process was one thing that was not good on my diet. A lot of eating out and a lot of times that I wanted to work out but didnt have the tme. However, now that we are moved in I am trying as hard as I can to get back on track. I have been eating very good and trackng it through myfitnesspal.com which has helped a lot. At first I started walking for an hour every day and I take a Zumba class every Tuesday and Thursday. But the problem with my eating the first couple of weeks were all of the "welcome to the neighborhood" treats. And no matter how good my meals were my snack were not good. And I finally broke down and threw them away so I wouldn't be tempted to eat them anymore.

Before I got pregnant I was running and doing really good. But being pregnant and on bed rest for nine months I completly lost everything that I had buit up. So I have been trying to get back into the swing of running. And I have to say that today was the best walk/run I have been on in a long time. It felt so good to run until I cannot go any further. And it felt so good that I want to do it everyday. So yes I havent accomplished as much as I had hoped I would by now as far as weight loss, but a lot of good things have happened in my life and I am finally staring to FEEL better and that is completly worth it. Now on to LOOKING better!!
