This morning I woke up more resolved. Fueled by pictures that were taken of me over the weekend (barf.) I knew I had to change. I know NOW I HAVE to stick with it. I don't have a choice. I WILL hit my birthday goal...and I have 66 days to do it.
The quotes really are good...I can't help but really like the first one "Nothing changes if nothing changes" VERY true, right?
Last night I prayed (well..I pray every night, but anyway)-I prayed that I'd wake up with a drive to change. And you know what? I did. Baby Boy woke up and I nursed him, then instead of curling up and going back to sleep, I took him in the living room with me, turned on True Blood, pulled on my Shape-Ups, and got on the treadmill..I got in 30 minutes before my Toddler Girl woke up and wanted to exercise with me.
But it's 30 minutes more than I did yesterday!
Suzy's simple egg salad
4 hard boiled eggs, smash them up with a fork
1 T sweet pickle relish
1 T spicy mustard
1/4 cup light mayo
mixy-mixy.
I ate it over a simple salad that I dressed with a little lemon juice, olive oil, and salt/pepper.
And I ate it s.l.o.w.l.y. and now I'm pleasantly full.
Meanwhile the bad boy below is staring me down on the stovetop...I had a LARGE piece yesterday, and I SHOULD have sent the rest home with my in-laws. I don't have the heart to throw it away...
In fact I should make it a point to not touch things like that for 66 days..it would be helpful to my goal...
oh and egg salad? it was good...I've never been a huge fan of it..but it was an excellent brunch and I have enough to do the same tomorrow if I want.
