Wednesday

Well this week has been a trial and today was no exception.  It was certainly a interesting day.  I spent time at the food bank and I don't think in all the months that I have been there that there has been a more interesting day.  I love my life. 
The Challenge is going good.  I still have somewhat of a challenge with some of it but I have been able to do it so all is good in life today. 
Lorin is building us a beautiful gazebo and I am always so impressed at how smart he is and how talented he is. These things come easy to him. Why do I struggle with so many things.  He is such a inspiration in my life and helps me so much. Can you tell how much I love him.. Thanks Lorin for my wonderful life and thanks for all the things you do for me.

Saturday

Today was interesting. We went to the temple and so that means that I had to carry the water with me and also I had to deal with eating out.  It turned out ok.  I am sure that the calories were not good but I didn't have and sugar and that was a plus.  Lots of veggies.  Got home in time for my regular walk.  I love to walk but I am having some problems with my foot.  I think I may have gout and it is really painful.  Oh well I will just have to work through it because I am determine to get my walk in everyday. all the rest of the challenge is like second nature.  I am so enjoying this challenge.  I think starting tommorrow I will go back on between 1100 and 1200 calories.  Should see some action then.
Loving life.

Thursday April 14

Today was just good.  Got everything done.  Had a bit of a sugar craving today.  I don't really know why because I don't eat much sugar. Maybe it was because I can't have it right now.  Tommorrow is another day.  Bring it on!!

Wednesday

Today was a bit harder. Not the eating. That part is easy. My knee decided to hurt, really hurt.  I got enough walking in but it is really sore. Hopefully it will feel better tommorrow.  All the rest was not a problem.  I am a litte discouraged about the weather. I really wish that it would warm up a little. I am so tired of the cold weather.  I am so ready for spring.  Oh yeah the water is so great. I think for the last while I have not been drinking enough water. I am so happy for a challenge that helps to remind my to drink drink drink.  I am so enjoying the challenge.

Another Day

Well it is another day of the challenge.  So far so good.  I have been able to eat all my fruit and will finish the vegetables at dinner tonight.  I also have made it through the water, the scriptures and the good deed.  I walked and will probably do that again this evening. This counts as writing in my journal and so long as I get my sleep tonight I will be fine.  I think that will happen because I am really tired. The weather has been nice so I have been able to spend some time soaking in the vitamin D. Yard work makes me tired even tho sometimes I don't get much done.. Well time to think about dinner. I will probably be back tommorrow.

New Day!

Today was the first day of the health challenge. I think it went well I have done my exercise, drank my water, ate my veggies and fruit, did my good deed.  All I have to do is to read my scriptures. I will do that before I go to bed to get my 6 hours of sleep. This may not be all bad. It was challenging for lunch at the food bank today.  I took a 100% wheat roll for lunch.  I even got up this morning and made my own. It was interesting how when the people that I work with found out what I was doing how much they tried to help me.  It is funny how many people would love to be doing a challenge but are not ready to commit. Well off to walk with my husband. I really do love to walk, I will have to try to introduce some other exercise.
