Happy 40th Birthday to Me!!

OK, so today is NOT my birthday...

In fact, I completely skipped over it during my blog break.

Never-the-less, I did turn 40 years old on March 24th!

40....years....old...

That is NOT a typo!  40 :)

I don't know what I was worried about.  I had a great day!

The first thing I did was go to a Weight Watchers meeting.  I mentioned on my Saturday Weigh-in that I upped my membership from Online Only to Meeting and Online.  That was my birthday present to myself.  I'll share more about my Weight Watchers experiences in future posts.

The rest of the day was spent with family doing family things.  I love those kind of days.  Everyone was home and we got to hang out and have quality time.  Doug even chose not to work overtime that day.  That in itself was such a sweet thing and a great present!

So, overall, being 40 has been great so far.  I do still have goals and things I want to achieve, but I don't feel like I have a time crunch.  I can relax, work hard and enjoy myself.

 

It is going to be a great decade!

Saturday Weigh-In ~ 8/19/17

  

Every time I stop doing my Weigh-In post, I fall off the wagon.  Therefore, I'll be reinstating my Weigh-In post but it will be on Saturday, the day I weigh-in for Weight Watchers.

My last Weigh-in post was about choosing to commit.  Then I didn't.  I've been very willy-nilly about my weight and fitness.  I'm "trying" to change that.  Trying is the word.

I still have my Weight Watchers online subscription that I've been using a bit here and there.  I want to start really focusing on it.  It tracks food intake and exercise, but I have to be the one to input the information.

I've been starting to walk the past week and even went shoe shopping and got a new pair of walking shoes.  (They are SO cute!)


The girls start school back up next Tuesday.  My plan is to work from 8am-1pm and then either go to the gym and walk for an hour or (weather permitting) walk around my town for an hour before picking the girls up from school.  I'm hoping this helps keep me on track, at least fitness wise.

I'm really hoping to stick-to-it this time.  I'll be 40 years old at the end of March.  That gives me 7 1/2 months to really buckle down and see what I can do.
I'd appreciate any good thoughts, prayers, or tips that you can give me.  Really.  Help!  hehe

I look forward to this week and seeing where it takes me :)

My week's stats:



Weigh-in:  -1.0  Total:  -19.8 lbs.

Exercise: Sat:  30 minutes
                 Sun: 30 minutes
                 Tues:  30 minutes
                 Wed:  30 minutes
                   TOTAL:  120 minutes = 24 FitPoints

Food Tracking:  This week I managed to track almost everyday!  The times I missed, I went back and filled in.  I used my Daily Points every day and ended up using my Weekly Points at my brother's birthday celebration.  Pizza and ice-cream cake did me in as far as my points went.
