Ok, so this week, I've started a definite exercise plan, and so far am sticking to it...I'm walking at least 30 minutes per day; and our neighborhood is hilly, so an added bonus there. I've also been doing my old shoulder therapy exercises with my Thera-band, and throwing in some new things for other areas of the body. Feels good to stretch it all out!

The other day, DH and I went out to buy new running/walking shoes, and the store also sells those big ol' exercise machines that I've always hated for the room they take up in your house...but, he stopped, briefly to look at them, and came away with the suggestion that maybe we could get one. I was a little shocked, but now the idea is growing on me. We have cold, wet winters here which make it impossible to get out for a walk on any kind of routine basis, so a machine would be so helpful for staying in the habit of daily exercise, and I do SO WANT to make this a lifelong habit, now...so, we'll see! Woohoo! Another great thing is that he's so supportive of the idea...he seems impressed with my weight loss. Well, as I told him, 25(ish) pounds (since October) is nothing to sneeze at, by jove! :)

It all started with celebrating completion of a test I'd been dreading, and feeling as though I probably did pretty well, despite all the fretting...

While picking up a few things at the store after the test, and I WAS hungry, I spied a little bag of Honey Mustard pretzels...not a HORRIBLE choice, like a half-gallon of ice cream or something, right?

Well, my next big mistake was to start on them in the car driving home...
I've ALWAYS had trouble stopping a snack once I've started, and in the car, without throwing them out the window, it was inevitable what would happen next...

I didn't eat them all, but when I got home, I started in on something else, and it's been kind of downhill ever since. I'm actually lucky it wasn't a bigger gain.

Today is our 10th wedding anniversary, and we will be celebrating wildly this evening...Honestly, I've more or less resigned myself to just holding my own until school is out later this month, then hitting it hard again while I have more time for exercise. I also enjoy crochet, and have several pending projects for during my time off. You cannot crochet AND eat, so that will help, too :)

Bottom line...I know what my weaknesses are, it's simply a matter of controlling them...and isn't that just life?
