My first 5k!!
Saturday, April 12th 2008
I finished my first 5K today!!! It was absolutely crazy. I did not plan on doing one until next week. But last Sunday our church announced they were doing one and encouraged people to come and even just walk. And people with strollers would atomatically get a medal.Well, my husband is always complaining about needing time to do stuff. So I thought I'd sign up and just walk it with my kids in the stroller. That would give him time to get stuff done. I even had a friend who has a very yo...

I have hardly had time to read blogs or write in my own lately. And I was thinking today about why this is and I figured out what the change is. Collin is no longer taking naps and he is going to bed earlier. So not only do I not get the nap time to get online anymore, but many times my husband is awake after Collin falls asleep (he's so exhausted that he falls asleep pretty quick now). So my husband either gets on the computer or we actually talk (gasp!! imagine that!).So it's good, but ...

Ugh! I have tons to write about but very little time as it's late and I need to get up early.So I thought I would just quickly write about how my food is going.

Yesterday I did pretty well and resisted temptations, affirmed that I can do this and ...

Argh!! I don't know how to fix this. I wanted to upload a picture of Collin's cake too. I started with flickr.com and for some reason it's not working for me at all!! I don't know what I'm doing wrong. So I tried photobucket and now it's too big. I tried resizing--no help. This is so frustrating, so any input would be appreciated.
Okay, now to write about how life is going. Tomorrow my baby turns 2.
Yikes! 
Lo...
This mental game!!

I am feeling down today because I am really struggling with weight and food issues.I had my counseling appointment yesterday and it was really good. I told her I have been successful in so many areas of my life, but I just can't seem to be successful with food. She said she has heard me say that a few times since we started therapy together. She asked me if I knew why I could manage so many other areas in my life, but not this one. I said, no Why?
She said, "Because you keep tell...
