It's about time to update, you all (all 2 of you who read this...) probably think that my kids are still sick and I'm still suffering. But luckily they aren't sick, but my 1 year old is now walking which keeps my on my toes.
The big news: I can now run a mile! Which doesn't seem that big, but for me, and how out of shape I was, it is. And not that it's fast or anything, but at least I can jog the whole thing.
I've also been impressed with myself in that I've stuck with my couch to 5k program. I've actually gone a little above and beyond, and I try to run everyday instead of 3-4 times a week. I'm feeling really good. My issue is that I'm not finding it "easy" to go, I mean, I "want" to be in-shape, but I sorta dread going. I have to tell myself, "you'll feel great afterwards", but I still drag my feet.
I've come to a stop in losing weight, which is okay, numbers don't matter but I have a goal which is slow coming. I'm trying not to get discouraged.
What I'm really struggling with is food. I just really like food. I'm doing okay, but I seem to give into myself a lot. I was trying to stay with eating half portions, but I'm not great at doing that all the time. I guess it's time to get back on the bandwagon...

I'm with you on the food thing. I can eat cookies and brownies like crazy!!! Lately, I've been really worried about it. I know it seems kind of silly to say, but I really feel like it is affecting me spiritually. I found a talk that was given in 1927 that really helped me out a lot and gave me motivation. It talks about the spirit's ability to overcome the body's desires. I can't remember the name of it and I'm still not feeling well enough to get off my couch, but if you go to my inspiration blog and scroll down you'll find it. If you can't find it, let me know and I'll email you the link as soon as I can get up :) good luck!!!!
I can't believe the baby is walking!! I feel like I miss so much with him that I was there for with Boo. Give them hugs and kisses for me!! I am glad to hear they aren't sick anymore! haha It's great that you are doing so good with the running everyday! I wish I had the motivation to do that! Maybe after my knee is better? Huh... probably not but you never know... haha. Love you all tons!
