I've Got to Write this Crap DOWN!

..because that makes it real, right?

I've been battling weight since Alice was born. It's much harder to find the time to exercise and prepare healthy food with two babies.

I need to make this a priority so I need to write it down. Maybe that's just the kind of accountability I need.

Health Goals

1. Exercise 3x a week. This doesn't have to be as hard as I think. It can be a walk around the neighborhood with the kids, a quick workout video, a jog once Steven gets home....anything. I just need to get my but moving for me. Picking up/lugging kids around does not count Elizabeth!!!

2. Count calories 5 days a week. I plan to stick to about 1720 calories a day. No counting on Fridays and Sundays but I still need to pay attention to what I'm putting in my mouth.

3. Eat breakfast. Seriously, this is becoming a HUGE problem for me. I get so caught up in the mornings with diapers and feeding babies that I forget about myself. At about 10:00 it hits me hard. I'm shaking and feeling bad and just so desperate to get something into my body, that I eat the first easy thing I can find in the house.

4. Limit fast food. When did fast food become a problem for me? It's just so stinkin' easy when you've got a screaming kid. It falls into the same category as number 3. I get in a rush and forget to eat before leaving the house. Cue McDonald's.

That's enough goal setting for now. I really need this to work. When did I become a fatty????
