The purpose of this blog is to give me a public venue of accountability regarding my lifestyle and my battle with weight.
Battle Plan
In order to win my battle with weight I am going to follow a "Healthy Points" plan. Each day I will receive a certain number of points for doing certain healthy things.
1 pt Drinking 9 cups of water
1 pt Eating no more than 40g of sugar
1 pt No white (bleached/enriched) bread
1 pt No sweets/desserts
1 pt 6-8 hours of sleep
1 pt 5 servings of vegetables and fruit
1 pt Eating a good breakfast
1 pt No food past 8:00pm
1 pt 10,000 steps (15,000 = 1.5, etc.)
1 pt Scripture Study
1 pt Personal Prayer
1 pt Being Tidy
1 pt Stretching Out
1 pt for every 100 calories burned in a workout
Sunday is a free day. I automatically receive full points (except workout) but can earn double points if I actually maintain my healthy habits throughout the day.
At the end of every week I will add up my points and reward myself accordingly with cash for splurging on myself--clothes, mani/pedis, massage, etc.
80-84 pts $5
85-89 pts $10
90-94 pts $15
95-99 pts $20
100-104 pts $25
105-109 pts $30
110+ $35

Feeling beautiful!
Feels good to be healthy! Went shopping to get a new pedometer at a sporting good store today. I took time before going to really dress nice, do hair and make up and all that jazz--a really rare and enjoyable thing for a mother. As I was looking around in the store at sale items, a store associate came and asked it I needed help. But it was obvious as he stuck around and tried to start a conversation while "adjusting" merchandise that he was interested in more than just doing his job. I caught him checking me out and then I caught him spying my wedding ring. He left after that. In no way did I encourage him of course, but it was nice to feel attractive and beautiful. This morning I had the energy and confident spirit to take time to get ready.. I felt good about myself and wanted to look good. I need to remember how good I feel today. It is now documented--I am happy when I'm healthy. And obviously still hot stuff.

Totally hot stuff. So this creepy single guy in our ward, like in front of Jason and the missionaries and everyone there went on and on about how hot I was. (This was before baby bump) And as uncomfortable as it felt, it was kind of nice to know, I wasn't as over the hill and past my prime as I thought. Go you!
