8/20-8/21 2011 - - 325 Days to go!

Yesterday and today were great days.  Saturday we were invited to a fun birthday party for our little neighbor boy.  He just turned one but man it was a BIG party!  They had rented a bounce house, had a water slide, a kiddie pool, and actually roasted a WHOLE pig including the head.  It was a lot of fun but not good for the diet.  We got there around 2 and pieced on food the rest of the day til 5:30.  I was so full I didn't eat the rest of the day.  I don't think I went over on my calories but I couldn't measure them, even if I wanted to.

I told Cris yet another excuse of not wanting to workout and he pushed me through it yet again.  I didn't do it with as much energy as I should have but it was still great.  We are planning on going on a pretty aggressive hike tomorrow for a fun date night! SAWEET! Exercise and date night combined are always GREAT fun!

Workout Minutes: 30

Today: Sunday

My kids are at Grandma Chinen's for the week, until Wednesday.  They went for a final hoorah before Cayten starts kindergarten.  I can't believe it!  We were able to go to church today and listen to the sacrament meeting, along with substitute for the primary.  It is fun teaching the gospel to such little innocent (or not so innocent) little children.  I felt the Spirit so strongly today testify to me when the choir was singing.  They sang a combination of I believe in Christ and I am a Child of God.  While they were singing, I knew BOTH of those sayings were true in my life.  I am thankful for the knowledge that I am a Child of God.  I know that God loves me even at 218 lbs but I also know I will be a better mother and wife at a healthier weight.  I know that God can and will help me along this long journey.  I got on the scale yesterday and had only lost 2lbs since I started on Monday but I can't complain.  I have more energy and I don't want to sit on the computer all day.  I am excited for my first weigh-in tomorrow.  I will also post my first photo.

Workout Minutes: ZERO - - it is a day of rest!
