Issues

I have issues. Well, lots of them. But there's one in particular:


Have you tried the Archer Farms brand of chocolate cookie mix? THEY ARE DELICIOUS.

I like to eat too much. Like way too much. Like the cookies you see in the picture above will be gone by tomorrow.

I hate to exercise. That's a big problem. Well, that combined with enjoying eating a little too much. I tried running for a while. And I built up to about 30 minutes straight, which is pretty good for me. And I joined weight watchers for a few months earlier this year and got down to (well, below for a little while) my pre-pregnancy weight. I'm hovering there still, but would like to get to where I was a few years ago, which means some more poundage to go. 

Anyway, I think I'm done running. I.H.A.T.E.I.T. I tried to like it. I really really did. But I'm over it. And my knees are over it. Especially my right knee that cracks 5 times with every step up or down stairs.


So I decided that I'd walk for 30 minutes a day. On the treadmill or outside with Asher. That went well for two days. But I took today off. The third day I took off. Ugh. I'm not sure that an exercise program exists out there that I am able to stick to.


Maybe I'll pick walking back up tomorrow?

Hi Summer! Long time no talk! I am still working on getting back to pre-pregnancy weight. I am 1 or 2 lbs over. UG! And really would like to lose another 10 on top of that. Double UG! I hate excercising. I start up - I stop. I have a million excuses. But for the last month or so I have been following the line diet http://www.thelinediet.com and it seems to be working...I am down 7 lbs since begining of July. Its very easy. Put in your goal weight and when you would like to get to that weight. Weigh yourself everyday and plug in the number. If you are above the line - eat light. If you are below the line - eat cookies :) Its so simple and actually works. i think it is just that mind set that somedays you can eat what you want - and somedays you cant. :) Michelle

I haven't tried those cookies YET... I will have to now, thank you very much. Funny you made cookies yesterday because SO DID I? Great minds must think alike. Only, mine technically didn't make it to the official cookie stage. The dough is in the fridge and is so yummy we can't help ourselves..it will probably be gone before they get into the oven :)
