{Goals for the month of March}

I am putting together a few goals I have for March, since I totally blew February & January.

March Goals

* No eating after 7pm (this is a killer for me, I am such a night time eater)

* If I feel like eating I will drink a glass of water first and then wait 15 min to see if I am really hungry.

* exercising at least 30 min with those workout videos I bought (seriously what a waste of money if I don't use them)

* Go walking for 30-60 min during the day. (I have so much free time I really need to use it more wisely)

* Plan out the days like I used to w/my day chart. (this will make getting back into a routine much easier)

* Find 10 positive things during the day & blog about it for the entire month. (this will help me de-stress and not turn to food...I used to do it all the time and I really need to get back into the habit)

I hope that I can get into a routine quickly and stick with it. I am looking forward to seeing my changes by the end of March because by April we want to start trying for baby number 4.

{Weight Gain...*sigh*}

I have fallen off the wagon so to speak and I am really ashamed of it. I have gained back 15 of those 25 pounds I lost! I have been so stressed out lately that I have begun to turn back to food for comfort and I am having trouble distracting myself from late night eating. (both are not good and I thought I had both under control but obviously not.) I am not working out like I did before either although, I am trying to get back into a routine, but it's soooo hard. I was avoiding my scale for the longest time and was so annoyed and frustrated with myself to find that all my hard work has gone down the drain!! This next month I am hoping to do better...

What do you do to keep yourself on the right track when you are trying to lose weight?

{25 Things about Facebook}

Yes I facebook and no I don't particularly like some of the things on it. But I try not to be too demanding - although I am not sure I am succeeding. I found this on Jenni's Blog aka Mommy Bee. Enjoy!
