I'm still trying to get in shape! I really had a bad time of it with my back. It took a little over a week to get to where I could go from sitting to standing with out pain. I haven't done any core work, so afraid I'll throw my back out again. But tomorrow I'll try doing some light stuff along with some stretching. I did get a few walks in this past week, I walked in the San Pasqual Valley with LaVonne, we did probably 4 miles. Then I walked with Honey on Friday morning down at Lake Hodges, that was probably only 3 miles.
I find that if I'm not posting what I'm eating here, I eat more!!! Maybe be not so much more as the wrong stuff. It really helps me when I have to think about what I'm eating and what kind of example I'm being to my friends. Even with the lack of hikes and not eating as well as I'd like, I've still been able to shed some more weight and inches. See new stats listed to the right. So I'm going to try to be better about posting, this past two weeks have been crazy. Hope and I had to finish up the school yearbook, I knew we'd get stuck with the job of finishing it and it'd be a full time job, and it was! I'm soooo glad it is finished and off to the printers! I hope it meets the expectations of the students.
Once I find the surface of my desk, I'd love to start walking, hiking exercising and fellowshipping with some of you. Let me know if you want to go out for a walk. Please, don't think that just because I love to hike the mountains that I wouldn't just as much enjoy a walk around the park! CALL ME!

Tough Beginning! The dreaded photo op!
Okay, first thing first, I had Steve take pictures of me in a tight shirt and shorts. That was hard, it became apparent right away I have been in denial for sometime. It is killing me to have to post them right here for all to see!!!
Next, I weighed myself, ah...umm...yeah... do I have to say? Honesty!! Okay, I weighed in at a whopping 164, ouch! I knew I should never have taken the scale out of my bathroom! But now everyone knows. It's all down hill form here, right?
Then I went and got my sewing measurement tape and started measuring the bod!
Neck -12"
Arms - 12.75
Breast - 41.50
Waist - 35
Tummy - 40.5
Butt - 41.5
Thigh - 23
No wonder I just sort of look like a tube, not much variation in the sizes.
My plan is to work really hard on taking the fat off the areas that don't need it and build up muscles where I do! So, how am I going to do this? First cut out calories, I'm not going to do anything drastic, but those mid-morning snacks and late afternoon snacks have got to be either removed or a better food choice to replace the junk food.
I want to post each day what I ate the day before, it might be a bit of a bore for some of you, but it will allow me to see where I'm cheating and hopefully some of you will join me in this and post your own stats and what your doing to get in shape.
It's 4pm and I'm a bit hungry, this is the hard time of day for me, I like to snack as I prepare dinner, so please when you think of me, send up a little prayer for me!
Till tomorrow, keep the Lord close!
