Day 2 and who would have thought......

That I would actually like an omelete sans CHEESE! This was just my lunch before I head to work and I was not sure what to make or have for that matter. So I thought to keep things interesting I would make an omelete and use the leftover pepper, onion, mushroom and diced tomato mixture that we had with lasts nights meal. I ate my omelete over spinach. I took a picture and I promise onse I upload pictures off my camera there will be a post of my meals I have made in a picture montage.

Made it to the gym today as well, go me two days in a row no wonder it is cold and chilly here the gods are in a uproar cause they didn't think my fat ass could do it. Feeling pretty good to. Thinking I will work mainly on my cardio until the end of October and then add in my strength training. It is amazing how only a year and probably two months ago I was able to run a full 45 mins on the treadmill and was 45 pounds lighter. See what being lazy does to you. I will get back there, I am determined.

Just realized that four years ago this very day I embarked on a new journey of being a stay at home mom. It has been one of the most wonderful, and fulfilling journeys ever. So it seems fitting that I am now at the four year mark embarking on anothr chapter in my life. One that I only hope makes me healthier and able to do the things with my family I want to do. I want to go on the family vacations and explore places and not feel unfit, fat and tired.

Somthing else I think I am going to try and do, is to monitor my sugar levels. When I was pregnant with my daughter I unfortunatley developed Gestational Diabetes and had a very hard time maintaining my sugars where my doctors wanted. Even with me following a strictly monitored diet by my gyn and maternal fetal doctor. I still have the glucose monitor and all, so I was thinking since I know that because of this I am at a higher risk of becoming a diabetic, I should start monitoring it. Just to see where I am at and if this diet helps to keep it in check. All the research I have seen says that it will.
