1 Pound 60 Times Over

So today was my official first day. In the last 3 weeks I've had about 4 exercise sessions but today is officially the first day. I'm doing something I normally don't do, giving myself a little credit. The picture taken of me on the scale in the last post had me at 191 pounds, today I weighed in at 190 pounds. Now normally I wouldn't think that was a big deal at all, or that whatever effort I put towards loosing that 1 pound meant nothing. But in this case I'm taking a different approach that I'm hoping I'll be able to hold on to through this process. I only need to loose that 1 pound 60 times. I do many things 60 times over, I kiss my baby 60 times, I brush my teeth 60 times, I drive to the grocery store 60 times, I can loose 1 pound 60 pounds over.

It's going on 1:00 am and I've been working since 10:00am. Monday are always crazy busy. Getting my 9.5 month old son on a sleeping and eating schedule throughout the day while playing with him, changing him, and clothing him. I completed 4 loads of laundry and cooked a large dinner. This all while I jump started my week for website that I run from home. So needless to say my day is just ending in the wee hours of the morning. I am very happy to say I also walked on the beach for about 45 minutes. Although it was cold and windy, I did it, (granted Southern Californians consider 55 degrees cold, I'm inwardly laughing at myself seeing that I'm a native of Colorado.)

I ate well and clean for the most part, zucchini bread, apple sauce, water, vitamins & herbs mixed in juice, small frozen meal (Fresh & Easy's Baked Ziti), grapes, gingerale, bbq chicken, cabbage, corn on the cob, small chocolate pudding (yes I will continue to have my chocolate), cherries, cheese bit crackers.

I am very happy with being productive today, I am in the hopes that I can balance my Tuesday. It shouldn't be quite this busy however I tend to burn out quickly during the week....I wonder why. :~/ ;~) Last task of the day is to shower and wash my hair. I find it impossible to find time to do this during the day with baby in tow. So we're off to a good start. Tomorrow I'll go after another pound.
