What's left to do...

So last night after the kids were in bed I started to think about my list. What is on there still? What is left to do? How will I get stuff done? Here's what I came up with.

-Find a skincare system that works for me --This is a little hard right now considering my allergies make everything and I do mean everything difficult for me to try. May have to come up with a different goal and postpone this until my allergies aren't so bad and cause me to have a reaction to pretty much everything

-buy a swimsuit that I like and fits --um...yeah not so excited about this and honestly have no idea where to look. Also funds are a huge issue. Saw a few in a magazine that I thought were cute but then realized that they were $200 which is way too much for me to spend right now.

-Go for a run outside in the morning -- This is possible I just haven't done it yet

-Go to church even if Todd can't come because of work -- Going to attempt this Sunday. I think this would be easier if we had a church home but since we don't I always feel weird going to church by myself and having to figure things out

-No meat for a whole day -- haven't done this but have to decide though if eggs count as meat since I often have eggs for breakfast I'll have to do some thinking on this but I think it's possible to be done

-Do exercise w/free weights while watching TV -- This has to be changed. Since I did my limit TV to 8hours a week I'm not even watching that much and thus this is not happening either. I'm changing this to the following: do some sort of mini strength training exercise 5 days a week right after my cardio.

-Get fitted for a proper pair of running shoes --Haven't done this yet. Dragging my feet on this so to say. I know new running shoes are going to be pricey and was feeling like I would have to buy them at the store if I spent all that time to get fitted for them. I saw someone else was going to be fitted for a pair and then buy them online where they will be cheaper. I might just do that. Just gotta get myself to the other side of Lexington for this so I need to plan several things for that trip so it's not wasting gas. Maybe sometime this coming week I can do that.

-Take body pictures and post them if brave enough. --um...yeah I don't know. I didn't take pictures of my body when I started this journey in Jan. but I have some shots of my face (which is what made me decide to do this) so maybe I'll post that picture and then a current one. You'll be able to see weight loss in those right?

-Write 3 letters to women who inspire me and tell them so --I'm currently thinking about this. I mull over thoughts and do rough drafts in my head before I actually write. This will probably get done over the weekend though as I've been thinking about this one a lot.

-Do AB exercises twice a week -- So yeah haven't done this but really should. My abs are the things I like the least so you would think this would have been the first thing I would have done. Wrong. I think I'm stalling since I know this is not going to easy. Need to start on it soon though. Just need to stop negative talking to myself and just do it.

-Plan weekend getaway with Todd -- Would love to do this but money is very tight right now and he's working every day to get us caught up. Not sure how this will happen. This might have to be changed to something else. I'm trying to figure out what though and think it is important that I do something for my amazing husband. Open to suggestions if anyone has any.

Things I'm still doing on a regular basis:

-Farmers Market --going again tomorrow

-Limit TV time to 8 hours a week -- I think this is something worth keeping in check every week. I've not even missed TV and would rather read or rest which is better for me anyways.

-No computer after 8pm -- This is a good thing to keep doing too I think. I failed that one time. Need to keep working on this. The computer is like the black hole of wasting time.



So that is where I'm at. Not a lot to do left. Feeling pretty good about the things I've accomplished and nervous about what is left. There are a few things that feel pretty hard for me to do. I know I can do it I just have to stop making excuses and get to it. Wish me luck!
