Starting all over again


SAHM, age 47, my kids are now 21, 22, 18 and twins at 17. My weight is back up and not proud of it. My husband just surprised me that we are cruising for our 25th Anniversary next year. I gotta get moving to lose 40lbs.

Member Since: 3/31/2010

Fitness Minutes: 8,803

My Goals:
My goal is just to feel better physically. I know that when I go upstairs, I shouldn't be hurting. My shoulders are hurting as well. My goal is to look and feel fabulous by my birthday, 8/29 2014.

My Program:
 Watching my intake and drinking my water. No more chocolate.


Personal Information:
I live in NJ, mom of 5. Still have a beagle, the cat, but we added a parakeet. Husband retired from the Army since two years ago.

Other Information:
 If I don't get to do my exercise, I will not let it get me down. I know that I can get back on the horse. "Don't sweat the small stuff."

"Remind yourself that you are choosing to use the scale as a weight loss tool. It is NOT your judge, jury and executioner. "
A quote I found in this website. I don't want anyone to think I wrote this. I also have this printed out and taped it on the wall above the scale.

    Hey Pearl! I read your blog and your status, and I see you're having some concern. But it's ok, everyone has their slumps! What you do is keep pushing yourself to exercise (I know it's hard, I don't like it either), track what you're eating and drinking (everything), pray, and keep going. It will happen! You shouldn't do it to fast anyway. If you do it over a period of time, it will be easier to keep it off. It will change your whole lifestyle! I left you some suggestions on you recent blog. Check it out. I hope something I said made a difference in your trial. Keep up the good work, it WILL pay off!! Jackie emoticon emoticon emoticon

    Pearl, don't give up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Are you tracking your food? I HATE to do that, and I do mean HATE -- but I've been doing it and I have to say it's (1) keeping me honest and (2) getting a little easier.

    Try to fit Shred into your day today if you can. And don't be discouraged - do your best. It's hard but SO worth it. I'm only on Day 5 and I can already see things starting to change. You CAN do this! emoticon

    Hey Nancy! I didn't do the shred today. I did a quick walk instead. After that, I took a quick shower and had to pick my daughter from school for her after school activity.

    Thanks for the nuts Pearl! They are my fav snack too but they are somewhat of a trigger food for me to binge on. I can't have cashews now, I love the Costco brand, I can't stop at the 15 I counted! Did you try the Shred? I haven't checked my other spark messages yet.
