Day One

Oh how unmotivated can a woman be? This day did not start the way I wanted it to, nor did the year. Fortunately, there are many more days in this year to make up for it. My body hates me right now... but I'll get to that in a minute.

I actually slept in - the kids actually let me - and I'm still stunned about that. All the way to 7:30am. That's a miracle in this house (at least for me). I didn't want to do anything but lay around, maybe read a book, but the hubster shamed me. First he got up early for him and set to work on the house again. I couldn't let him do it alone so I worked some too - dishes, laundry, going through stuff and throwing a LOT away. Then, while I took a nap, he went for a run. I'm thinking maybe he should be the one doing this blog... except, that I knew I'd have to do something today if only so I could come on and post. It wasn't much, just fifteen minutes (nearly 3 miles) on my stationary bike but it was something. I've also been good at counting my calories (even the ones I didn't want to record - thank you very much Kiffle horns.) and I'm doing pretty well. Well within my solid, healthy weight loss range. I just will have to keep dinner light for me which totally isn't a problem. And hold off on the snacking which might pose a problem. I love my snacks. I love sweets, chocolate, lemon everything. But if I eat any munchies tonight, they'll probably be something healthy (sigh). Plus, I intend to more housework tonight - I still have a Christmas village to put away and that means about twenty round trips to the basement. One set to bring up the empty boxes and the other to take them down. That should definitely count for something better than my paltry 15 minutes.

Day two I'm planning to get out my kettlebell and swing. I at least relatively enjoy that.
