My New Year's Resolution - Become a MILF


I know that sounds por.no-ish, but I don't care. I want to be hot and sexy by the end of the year, and I'd love to be a mom. So if we combine those, you get a MILF. (Mother I'd like to F***, for those of you that are wondering) I want to lose at least 50 pounds, which averages out to 1 pound a week. I don't see why that would be too hard.

My exercise/workout plans -
Couch to 5K program with my husband. It's designed to get you RUNNING a 5K in 9 weeks. I'm hoping that this will be good for me and the hubby. He hasn't really been able to run since he got shot 6 yrs ago. I figured if we went slow, this would be like rehab for him, and he will be able to run again (or at least walk easier.)
Yoga EVERY DAY. Leanne, a fabulous food blogger at HealthfulPursuit.com, did a 30-day challenge, where she did yoga every day, no matter how she felt. And she realized that the days that she didn't want to go were the days she really needed it the most. And when I was doing yoga regularly, I felt great. So I'm doing my own challenge. I will do at least a 30-day challenge. I hope to make it a habit so I'll end up doing it every day without forcing myself.
GYM - We have a free gym in our apt complex. I just haven't used it. No more excuses. I'll go to the gym at least 2 times a week. I'll alternate the type of workout I do so I don't get bored. I know we have a stationary bike and weightlifting equipment. I read somewhere that cycling does more for diabetics than walking does, and I'm going to be diabetic if I don't change. I figure that it'll be easier for me to do cycling because I won't have to be standing.

Usually these exercise plans fall by the wayside because I sit down and start watching TV. So from now on, I will not turn the tv on until I have finished my workout.

My food plans -
I'm just going to start eating healthier again. I've done fairly well this week - eating a lot of salad and greens, while reducing sugar intake. I really wanted a donut a couple of days ago, but I resisted, and I'm so proud of myself. I'm learning new ways to make salads, so they don't get boring.

I know that this all sounds like something I've said before. And I would agree. I've said I was going to change my life, and not followed through. And that's a fear of mine. But I have to learn to ignore my fears if I want to change my life. I have no valid reasons or excuses for not doing it. So I'm going to kick my ass in gear - and I've got a lot of friends backing me up, supporting me, fighting for their health as well. This is our year.
We will be MILFs.

What's Your Song? Thursday IS BACK!

I realized that I'm in desperate need of some tunage. I'm trying a 3-day juice fast, and I want it to go well, so I need to be in a good mood - esp. since I hate most of the veggies in the juice but I know they are good for me. I have some good news - I have lost enough weight to take the 'W's off the end of my pant size, and I had to buy new, SMALLER undies. YAY! The hubby is very excited about the pair decorated with sledding penguins lol. Here's my song - Dirty Laundry by Bitter:Sweet. Love this song!!! Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go dance with my dog and ignore all the dirty laundry that really needs to meet the washing machine :) Join us on this great link-up from Amber at Goodnight Moon !

The Doctor... Doctor Who? A.K.A. Damn you, Netflix :)

Oh, the hardships of having no cable TV... We decided that we were paying way too much money for cable, when there were only a handful of channels we watched. Of course we couldn't get the basic cable, because it was missing half of the channels we wanted. So I cut it off completely. And I'm so glad I did. We upgraded our internet service, bought a year of Xbox Gold membership, and subscribed to Hulu Plus and Netflix. Although we have decided to cancel our Hulu subscription, we love Netflix. Hulu is great for current shows, but Netflix is awesome because we can watch an entire series. When it first came out, I LOVED Alias. It was a spy show starring Jennifer Garner. My mom and I used to watch it every week. But Hubs had never heard of it! Seriously, he lived under a mountain. At least when it came to TV. So we watched all 5 seasons of Alias. We decided that instead of watching various shows all at once, we would choose a series and watch it all before switching to a new show....

One day I won't be so ticked off...

This post started out of sheer frustration. I was mad, angry, and ready to let the world have it. Even told Hubs that I was ready to lock myself in a room and never come out. But that won't do me any good. It certainly won't help my checkbook or my mental health. So what is a girl like me supposed to do? I don't know. I haven't known for years. I started talking to potential donors this past week, in the hopes that maybe we could start trying to get pregnant soon. But when I got home and thought about it, I got sick to my stomach. It's the first time it's ever happened. I'm used to getting sick after hearing about other people getting preggo. But I've never been sick at the thought of having my own kids. That's the dream I've had for almost 20 years now. So what the hell is going on? Is my body sick of the heartbreak? Does the thought of not having a biological child by Hubs make me nauseous? Am I freaked out by how life will go as long as I...
