Long time!!!

Wow,
What a long time since I wrote last! Kids are enjoying their summer. They have been busy with CRPC and Tyler has been spending a lot of time taking care of his sister. I have to admit to a lack of follow thru on his part -- can't seem to finish chores, etc. But we are working thru it.

Going forward this journal is going to be a record of my weight loss journey. I am currently hovering about 220 lbs and my goal is to lose down to 145 by my birthday next year. I'm taking it 10 lbs at a time. I have employed the help of a personal trainer at my local gym - Renee Friesz. I'm watching my diet and taking better care of my health. With lots of help from my Heavenly Father, I am hoping to succeed this time. My journey is and always will be in HIS hands.

I had my first workout with Renee today. OH MY GOODNESS!! She about killed me, but I have to admit it was a lot of fun. I was more focused on doing the exercises properly knowing she was right there watching me. I'm a little stiff tonight, but not in pain...I'm sure that will come tomorrow. Yikes! We will meet twice a week for the first couple of weeks, and then decrease to once a week. I plan to go it on my own after 12 sessions. We will see what happens!!
