Jeanette's Journey

7/5/08
I just turned 40 at the end of April, and I am ready to focus on ME. I'm tired of stopping to catch my breath when I climb the stairs. I'm tired of my doctor telling me I need to lose weight. I'm tired of my clothes not fitting. I'm tired of my thighs sticking together. I'm tired of being tired!
It's time to get serious about my health and happiness.

Member Since: 7/5/2008

SparkPoints: 17478

SparkAmerica Minutes: 15174

My Goals:
1. Make exercise a priority instead of a last minute thought. Goal met!

2. Use food for nourishment, not a boredom buster or pacifier. Ongoing battle!

3. Plan my meals and stick as close to the plan as possible. Work in progress...

My Program:
45-60 minutes of cardio five or six days a week.
Meet with a personal trainer three times a week for strength training/toning.

Read or write instead of eating when I'm not really hungry.



Personal Information:
Third grade teacher and single mom from the Bronx, NY.



Other Information:
I love reading and watching movies. I'm dabbling in photography, too.

Exercise has become an integral part of my life. I feel guilty when I miss a workout session now. Before, I would look for excuses to miss them.

Hey there!

I give it away as much as I can. I made two loaves yesterday, so today, I gave a loaf to my neighbor and gave the other loaf to my daughter's friend to take home to her family. As far as when I bake cookies, I keep most of them here, but if there's a whole lot, I'll freeze some. I must have 50 cookies in the freezer right now - if not more. I don't know why I just haven't given them away yet. If your son lives with you, tell him you're going to freeze half of it so that you're not tempted.

Thanks for the Goodie!

I didn't take that picture, I searched on google images for a nice fall picture. The leaves are so beautiful!

I am going to Bermuda....St Thomas, and St Martin...I am not even sure if I spelled it right, but there you go....
So, I have a year to get my butt, literally, in gear for this trip...

I am just trying to make myself accountable, both to myself, and to others....this is a great goal, and I will feel so much better...on and off the ship.

Thanks for being so real, and making people laugh....and thanks for sending back a comment...I will have more time tomorrow, to read some blogs...once the teens are in school...and I look forward to reading yours!!
Have a great day...and I hope the weather is worth enjoying!

hugs and love,
Cathy

I just wanted to say that I saw your comment about your goals from November and I can only imagine. (I must admit that I cracked up laughing!) I remember the trouble I gave my mom as a teenager. Hang in there! emoticon
