The weather has such a wonderful affect on my mood.  It makes me feel so positive, so hopeful.  Right now things in my life are kind of off track.  I’m doing the work emotionally to figure things out, to become my whole self – and finally I’m in a place where I’m willing to get back into the game of changing my health for the better, so I’m happy about that.

I’ve been thinking about doing that Couch to 5K that so many of you fabulous bloggers have done.  It’s pretty neat to think in three short months, you could jog 3k!  Woop woop!  Already, just imagining jogging feels strenuous! lol…

I’ve got such a busy week ahead of me, it’s exhausting.  So,on that note – it’s the perfect time to get my body moving!

Ohh! I also wanted to come on here to say something really quick!

There have been so many times… countless, hundreds of thousands of tims where I’ve struggled – wanting to eat something and telling myself No.  Most of the time, I’d give in and eat it.  Many times, I’d resist and I’d feel SO proud of myself – but it’d take some effort.

Just now, in the kitchen as I put together a picnic snack for the kids – for a park visit after school – I was tempted to grab a bag of snacks for myself.  I thought to myself immediately – you’re not hungry – and like without missing a beat, I tossed it back into the cabinet.  I shut the cabinet and thought to myself, “you’re thirsty” – so I’m sitting here with water now – feeling pretty cool.  It wasn’t hard.  It was only… conscious.

Nice.

Oh yeah – and thanks everyone for checking in on me and leaving a message   It means SO much to know you all are out there
