The Update

Well here it is, the end of February and I thought I should update you on the whole weightloss thing. Let me just say that the fact that I had to clean cupcake frosting off my handweights before I could use them should give you a clue on how I did. I have lost a total of 0 pounds. But, in my defense I was sick for almost three weeks this month and the only thing I want to do when I am sick is eat comfort food and lay around on the couch. Sadly that is not much different than when I am not sick.

I did get back on the wagon last week though and worked out 6 times. That is a big accomplishment for me and I have two workout buddies to thank for helping me.

Debbe,
Thank you for being such a great 2 night a week workout buddy. So what if you think you should have picked a different life coach than me. You might think I don't push you hard enough, but I say I am nothing if not encouraging. Even if it is encouraging you to not work out and just be lazy. We will kill the fat!

And to my husband-

Dear Honey,
Thank you for helping me get out of bed in the mornings so we can exercise together. You definitely make the workouts comical, I mean more fun. And I am sorry for calling you "The exercise Natzi" in my head all those mornings you were trying to help me get out of bed.

I will update you again at the end of March and hopefully I will have something new to report.

Snow Day

The kids and I headed over to grandma L's house today to play in the snow. Yes, it snowed! Nevermind the fact that it was almost completely gone by the afternoon. Connor was so excited about the snow, so excited that he stood looking out the window saying, "You did a good job clouds, thanks for the snow!" Olivia however, wanted nothing to do with the snow. I would even venture to say she hated it.

We stayed at grandma's house all day long and drank hot chocolate, ate yummy food, and watched cable tv. It was a great day! We came home and I baked fresh rolls and made DELICIOUS corn chowder for dinner. It was delicious. I ate way to much. Did I mention it was delicious? And now I really need to go work out, if I can move that is.
