Walking It Out.......

If you're new to "Time Out for Theta

Moms Thursday" and would like to 

join in on the fun, It's about setting 

a goal to set aside one hour of time

within a week to do whatever you

want, without the kids. So on Thursdays

you can post what you did with your

hour of "me" time on Heather's page

with a link back to your blog, so

that other mom's can see what you

did with your hour of free time.

I just joined my friend, Feina's

Biggest Loser Weight Loss Group last week

and the goal is to weigh in at the

start & pay $20 ea. then lose as much

as you can before the next weigh in

which is next month on the 10th.

Whoever loses the most at weigh in

on the 10th wins all the money collected

from each person that paid the $20 due.

So, It's pretty fun! They've been

really successful for the past year or

so and this is my first time joining.

I weighed in at 286..ughh (the heaviest 

I've been ever!) and am looking to at

least drop 10 lbs. (realistically) by

the 10th & keep working down from there.

So far, I've been walking in the evening 

with my kids but not going far distances

like I use to on my own.

I've packed on about 100 pounds after

having the two youngest ones and not

shedding all the baby weight after.

Plus snacking while blogging and not

burning it off after is what has gotten

me to this point.

So this morning I actually woke up at

4am and started walking to the gym in

our complex. I started for 30 minutes

on the elliptical and walked for 30

minutes around the complex taking in

that fresh air and feeling great.

Came back and drank tons of ice water!

ahhh. refreshing H20, great workout,

house is still quiet and an hour of

time to myself...can't beat that one..
