My Journey: Part Five

I guess you could say that this is a continuation of part four-FRUSTRATION. I have been stuck in a big, fat rut since then. The same weight for a few months without budging is starting to get to me. I know people say to change it up...I am trying! Casey and the kids bought me a Wii Fit for Mother's Day. I have started doing that a few days. I have gone up to run the track a few times-now that it is warmer. Yea, 30 pounds is a good start, but come on...there is still that plus more to go!
I have contemplated doing a nasty 4 letter word...DIET. Here is my issure: Any time I have tried a true diet, I have failed miserably. If I take it away, it just makes me want it more. Not only that, it is very hard for me to justify, both with time and money, to have something different for me to eat than the rest of the family. What to do...what to do! HELP!

Crazy Week

To say the least, it has been a crazy and full week. Between starting swim lessons for Zoey and Maizy all week, tumbling time change, t-ball, working full time, trying to finish the fence in the yard so we can start on the sprinkling system, somewhat fitting in exercising, and doing the usual "mom" stuff (i.e. cooking, cleaning and bathing children), I don't have time for much! For some reason, I decided to join a book club at work and we have now started our first read "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo". I love to read, so this will force me to do it whether I have time or not. I also joined goodreads.com so that I can look at my friends and see what books they have read and suggest. If any of you are a member, let me know. It is a great resource! I have a few pictures of the girls swimming, but they are from the balcony and you really can't see the girls well. I am hoping to get a few more pictures close up tomorrow! Keep your fingers crossed!
