I’m so excited for the month of May.
• I’m excited because Baby Mae is due to arrive later this month…
• I’m excited because the Honor’s concert is this month…
• I’m excited because Tim’s birthday is this month (although he’s the hardest person ever to buy a gift for)…
• I’m excited because this is the last real month of teaching before the summer…
• And I’m excited to loose some more weight!
Yup, you guessed it. I’m going to write about weight loss. I know, I know, everyone’s favorite topic. But I know when I lost weight after Chloe was born it really helped me to write about it on here because then it was fresh in my head all day long. For those of you who were reading back then I did “Thirteen Thin Thoughts.” Remember? 🙂 So, this is your warning. If you don’t like reading about weight loss or food or new recipes I’m trying, then just come back in a month. Hopefully by then I’ll have it out of my system.
So, on the docket for this month I have some exciting things planned. Wanna know? Alright, I’ll tell you! These are my goals for the month…
~ 5 Days of fruits. I don’t mean that I’ll only eat fruits, but I plan to devote a whole week (well, okay 5 days) to trying fruits and new recipes for fruits. I want to try things I don’t usually gravitate towards. So join me in my tasty journey!
~ 5 Days of veggies. This is the same as fruits but obviously done with veggies instead. I already have a delicious recipe for baked breaded zucchini strips on my counter. Mmmmm…
~ 5 Days of “Other Stuff.” This could include main dishes or desserts or just anything else I’m dying to try. Sometimes recipes don’t fall nicely under a category, so this is the category they get stuck in. I actually expect this one to extend more than just 5 days, but I’ll set my expectations low just in case.
~ try 4 new activities for exercise. This could be as simple as running like a crazy person around the yard with Chloe. I need to find activities that get me moving. And if it’s something I can do with the kids, that’s even better! Today we dusted off the bike trailer and rode around town. It was jolly good fun. 🙂
So there you go. Aren’t you excited? I AM! 😀
You’re going to do great. May is going to be awesome!
I’m very excited for you. I have a bit of vacation weight to lose, then get back on track to lose some more of my extra bulk. I’m concentrating on the budget right now, but that doesn’t mean I’m letting my weight go – just not quite as focused on it.
Exciting month. I have a suggestion for Tim’s bday present..12 back of Mt dew and the biggest container of ketchup you can find. 🙂
