I lost 1.5 lbs.!

I'm still working on getting it together on working out.  I know that's what its going to take to get it going!  Everyone has busy lives, everyone has very valid reasons for not having the time or energy to work out.  But I've got to find the place where I can fit working out.

I've starting keeping the TV off at home.  Its better for the kids and its better for me.  Its a time-sucker!  As soon as I sit down just to watch my DVR recording of Oprah, I get sucked into watching other TV.  By that time the kids are in their room watching Nickelodeon and time just gets sucked away.  Since I've been turning off the TV, I'm going to bed earlier.  That means I'm waking up earlier.  This new found 'time' is going to give me the slot I need in my day to dedicate to the treadmill.  All I need is 30 mins of running, walking, whatever!  Today I only fit in 20 mins, but that's ok.  I'm DOING it.  And that's what matters.  I'll increase the number of minutes.  I'll get better at this.  Its the small things that make the difference.

Its so easy to let our valid busy schedule get in the way and be the reason we can't fit working out into our lives.  How do you make it fit?

PS - My friend had a happy boob day today!  I took my friend to the outpatient place, she had an awesome experience, and she's got some nice, perky new boobs now!  She's very happy and already saying she should have gotten them bigger.  She ended up getting only C's (*remember she's 6' tall).  But I know she'll be happy!!

  2. My friend is 46. She didn't give it a second thought at all! She said she wishes she would have done it sooner. Her soon to be ex husband was a prude who thought it was inappropriate to have boob job....he was the big boob in that relationship! Hahaha!
