Doing better, but I can't seem to get to where I want to go. I started walking again, feels really good. Then I took the plunge and this week have bought 3 of Leslie's videos all with resistant tools so I can kick it up a notch. I tried the band the day before - it nearly killed me! I am soooo out of shape! I'm not giving up, just going to build up to it. that's one thing I like about Leslie's videos she doesn't push you. If something is too hard, just walk, eventually you'll be able to it. she is so encouraging. Walking with her videos is so much more than just walking with the MP3 player, much more burn, but if I can't get to the tv, I can still walk with Meatloaf.
Haven't walked enough to show any weight loss, maybe a little toning and better breathing, but I'm haven't really adjusted my eating/drinking habits. I am still drinking the Dew, I have increased my fruit (when I have it available), still trying to watch my portions and try to imit my Dew (unsuccessfully).
Sometimes I wish we would just move and then it could be a fresh start, to so much: Our life as a couple again, my getting in shape, his losing his habits, all of it. Maybe he would take a more positive outook on life, instead of all the negativity he sees. Alsways scared of losing his job - it's constant. If he breathes he thinks he's in jeapordy of getting fired... It's rificulous and getting really, really old to listen and encourage otherwise.
I wish he could see that life is realy good, even with the debt we have. Health is all still controllable, nothing major where changes HAVE to be made (we know we wil better with teh changes, but no doctors orders to change). We can pay our bills, we are getting three kids through college - they will all come out with more than either of us has... We have 4 reliable vehicles (His is acting up and has always been the lemon of the fleet), I have a job, that is ok, sometimes I even like it - - although he never asks, I have to initiate any conversation about me myself.
Lots to do, I believe I have kids coming home this weekend for Spring break and then the other one the folowing week. Bedding to wash, rooms to clean. I walked and feel I have the energy to get a lot done, even though I'm getting a late start to it all.
