I am in so much pain most days due to my back that I am just not interested in weight loss.I just accepted a challenge for the month of December to see if that will spark me again to lose weight.

I have been stable for the last few weeks but I blame that on the lack of eating right with all the moving and what not.I’ll get back on the wagon after the move is complete. Right now, I am hanging on to the wheel trying to do right but not always having the time to do right.

1. Sleep – Wake up at 6:30a. Asleep by 11:30p. I found that I was making myself go upstairs at 11p but I would do a bunch of stuff before going to sleep. Extend bedtime by 30 min and get up 30 min later. Still gives me a few hours more than before.

2. Food – This has been and will be the hardest part. We are so busy running with the new house, work, playdates, and the like that it’s horrible for food management. Planning my week in advance just isn’t happening right now. I wanted to do the lunch big meal but hubby says he can’t do that because he cannot eat alone. I don’t get that since I love to eat alone but I’ll adapt. I plan to eat larger lunches and minimal dinners.

3. Organization – Pack my lunch, the boys bags, and set out clothes for the boys and myself the night before. This I have done in the past and I just have to get back into routine with it. I have been pretty good but keep forgetting cause I run out of time at the end of the day. Maybe I can try picking out clothes for the week in advance or at least a few days in advance just to make night times easier. Mondays seem to be the hardest for me.

I am getting too little sleep and still don’t have not enough time to do half of what I need to do. I am reorganizing my days to maximize my efforts and hopefully fit in more of what needs to be done and less “junk”. I want to plan out my week in advance so I know what is going on, when and for how long. I know things will come up and it will need to be flexible.

First things first…Sleep. I need more of it. I will be out of bed by 6am weekdays and in bed by 11pm. This will allow for at least 2-3 hours of sleep more than I am getting now.

Next…Food. I will pack my lunch (or snacks for Tues) the night before. By Friday when I leave work, I will plan what I will eat for the following week. Not necessarily what I will eat every day but what options I will have available. I will make lunch my big meal of the day and eat less at night.

Third…Organization. I will organize the house as to make life simpler. I will get rid of clutter while packing and give unused items away to people who want them. I will prepare the boys bags for preschool and daycare the night before. I will select and put out the boys clothes as well as my own.

These are my 3 things to start with. I will add more as I accomplish these goals.

So, I am off to lose weight for the first time ever. Thankfully, hubby and the boys are along for the learning curve with me. Hubby and I have both start SlimFast and are doing ok. Now, we just have to trim down some of the unhealthy eating we are accustom to eating. Here’s an image (created at mvm.com) of me now and what I’d like to look like.
