All the best efforts go by the wayside

Labor Day weekend sure blew my great record of cutting out the soda! There was CokaCola in the house. *angry eyes* Martins Aunt brought over a case for the weekend. Guess what, Martin and I both succumbed to the temptation of that bubbly soda. I think I drank like 2 a day. *sigh*
I did go on a bike ride with the kids and a walk. But not everyday like I want. I have to push myself to do it. Why do I think I need someone else to help me? I don't like depending on people for much, but when it comes to this I feel I have to! Why is that? Why can't I just do it? Why can't I get the motivation, every day!

I want to do it. I just get to lost or caught up in other things. It's so frustrating for me

Today, I will go for a walk.

What do you mean it's been since April?

I'm not sure where the rest of Spring and Summer went. I must have lost them amongst the chaos.

I am down to 257 pound! That's great for me! My heaviest was 275!! I stopped buying soda for the house! I think that has helped a lot. I will get a soda if we go to the restaurants, but at least I'm not drinking them at home anymore. I have cheated the last couple of days and gone down to Ricker's. I need to stop doing that!

I've been doing okay with walking and riding my bike with the kids. I need more motivation every day. I wish I had someone to make me do it. I want to loose wait, I need to loose weight. BUT I can now ride the bike a mile without feeling like death walking! That's something, right? Yesterday the kids and I "speed" (as fast as you can go when kids are wearing down) walked around Shadyside. We did 1 and 1/2 mile, which is great! I felt so good.

I wish we lived closer to a nice park, maybe I'd walk it everyday.

Keep me in your prayers! I want to change my body for my own health. I need to be here for my kids and my husband. I know they are happy with who I am but I'm not happy with what I weigh.
