Goal Updates
This week wasn't too bad. I did binge Friday and Saturday night and sort of blew a lot of hard work from the earlier part of the week. I am disgusted and frustrated with myself. Paul had bought these Entenman's donuts and I succombed! I exercised 5 days this past week. Yesterday I did a lot of cleaning and did 67 minutes of Wii Walk It Out and got in over 17,000 steps. Woo Hoo! I finished my 2nd tour around the island earlier in the week and started my 3rd game. Funny to see an empty island after finishing building one. I had previously been doing the game on "easy" meaning that the capsules cost 1/2 of normal. So a palm tree was 50 chips and a hotel was 400 chips. I did the same on my first go around of the island. So I am doing this one on "normal." A palm tree is 100, a hotel is 800, the bridges are 1000. so it is taking a little longer obviously to complete this island. I am praying they come out with a Wii Walk It Out 2 soon! It really does help a little with the Winter blues.
Kona is doing better. We have to give her vitamin C every day now. Her urine is very strong ammonia. So the vitamin C is acidic and will help neutralize the ph of her urine. Hopefully that will help her not have any more of these bladder infections.
I can't wait until Spring. I am looking forward to warmth, walks outside, longer days. I didn't get to the Y this week, although I am going to Zumba today. Going to have to make up the difference in the coming weeks. Due to snow/ice and also I had the emergency pager this week for work. I just did not feel like going to the Y and bringing the pager with me. I get to mail it back to the office tomorrow! Woo Hoo! So far, no pages this week.
David is ok. A few outbursts but nothing serious. Paul is cranky. I think the light I bought him for SAD is working but I think he needs more time in front of it. I cleaned out my closet and started cleaning up my very messy and very cluttered bedroom. Paul is putting Christmas decorations away. This year was a little "weird" due to the ongoing construction. (clutter, furniture in other rooms of the house.) I am PRAYING that Paul begins putting his "office/work" stuff down in his office. I have a HUGE master bedroom, 1/2 of which is floor to ceiling papers, computers, files, office supplies, etc. In other words, CLUTTER. I need to make this the year I get "me" back and the year I get my house back.

Congrats on the walk it out! I always start things on easy lol but I\'m finding I\'m not needing to as much now. It sounds like things have calmed down at home a little, that\'s good! I can\'t wait for spring this year either. I want to do my walking outside and enjoy the fresh air, and in the summer I\'m going to swim! I\'m excited!
You are doing a great job with your exercise.. I am amazed that you are getting in all those steps. I agree ready for spring.
Don\'t worry about the slip. it happens now you are back on track right! Slow and steady and you will get your house back. and your weight will go down too. keep it up your on your way.
How many days til spring? I am so ready for it too. Love your 2011 goal - You and your house!
Glad to hear Kona is getting better! I wondered if Vitamin C would do the same for humans?
