My world today

Today was a whirlwind day but it was nice. I got up and ate breakfast with the girls and fortunately the weather was pretty mild so I took the girls to the park and they had a nice time. They love the swings and the slide. It was just so much fun watching them have fun. It is really something how simple things can bring children such enjoyment. I really enjoyed my time with them today. After we got home, they ate lunch and went down for a nap. While they were down, I worked out and boy was it a workout! Today, I did TLT - Endurance for Movement. I have had the TLT's for quite some time, but just never got around to doing them. More of a functional fitness than traditional fitness workout and I can tell I am going to be feeling it tomorrow.

Tomorrow is Calorie Killer 2 from the Firm. I found a pretty neat rotation that Tracie created as a way to integrate TLT's and FIRMS. I don't know how I am going to look for the District Convention, but I do know that by the time it rolls around, I will be in much better shape than I am today. :) The moves are quite different in the TLT's. I am quite sure that I wasn't doing all of them right, but all I can do is do my best!

Really, that is all that I can do anyways. I can push and push, but in the end, I can't MAKE anything happen. Sure, I would like to be 160' ish by the DC, but the likelihood of that is very slim. I have no idea what I weigh and I have no desire to get on the scale. One thing that I have learned is to stay off of the scale. It is my way of sabotaging myself and not reaching my goal. I still have my goal in my mind. I hope to reach it before the years end. Well actually, I hope to reach it by our anniversary. If I don't, I should be rather close. Funny, I thought I would have reached my goal by my last anniversary, but it didn't happen. Maybe I should stop making goal dates and just shoot for my goal weight! Hey that rhymes! :)

No more goal dates, just goal weight! I think that is my new thing. Cause if I think about it, when I put myself on a sort of timeline, and if I mess up along the way, I may throw in the towel feeling that there is no way I will make it, however if I just keep a consistent goal weight, that can keep me motivated and on track. I will see how this works. In any event, I have got to stay off of the scale. It's not my friend.

I bought such a cute dress the other day. I would like to wear it to the DC, only problem is that it s a size 4. Right now, it doesn't even think about zipping all the way up on the side, however, it will one day. Hey, if I don't get to it for the DC it is okay. One day, it will fit just the way that I like it. If I stay on target, it will be before the warm weather is over this year!
