Well its 2008....

Well, its 2008.....in the three days that I have had 2008 I have been able to accomplish very little of what I so badly wanted to have happened, but the one good thing is I have started back on the treadmill. I just got done doing 45 minutes on the treadmill and burnt like 212 calores and 70 fat calories so that makes me feel pretty good. My goal is to be down 10 pounds by the end of January. I think this is pushing it, but I like having goals for myself. This weight loss thing has become more of a competition for me now as this morning as I was working I heard some funny noise and so came in to the back room and found my husband on the treadmill walking. I didn't say a word, but now this has become more a competition and I love competition! My husband cannot weigh less than me. In the almost 12 years that we have been together, I have never weighed less than him until a few months ago, so it has to stay that way. :)

As far as the changes in my household, the three things that we have accomplished so far in 2008 is that Lexi has made her bed every morning, she has emptied the dishwasher as her chore (along with the help of Haylee), they have been keeping the toy room fairly clean, we have ate at home for all three nights, and we have done the dishes every night, so in my mind in three days we have done fairly well.

I know this is going to be a challenge, but for in three days, I feel that we have done a very good job and hopefully this weekend I will get more de-cluttering done in my life and just slowly keep working on this! :) Keep me in your thoughts and prayers as I work through this time in my life!

YAY FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!!!! That's awesome! Absolutely awesome. Yes, I will be happy to pray for you all and the changes you're making.

You go girl!

Could you blog about your treadmill. Where you got it. How much. What does it look like. Do you think they're a good idea? (I'm assuming so since you still use it.) I wonder if you can rent those things... Does it fold up for a super small space?
