Tuesday, but feels like Monday...Bleh!

So, I (LJ) did much better over the weekend compared to last weekend. I realize that one of the keys to not completely falling off the bandwagon is planning ahead. The time that I did not do so well was on Saturday. I do freelance work and I had a job in the morning and in the evening. It was kind of a hectic day, so I grabbed wings for my husband and I and pizza for the kids. Not the best thing, but I figured that I had been doing well for a while so a little bad wouldn't be the end for me.

Since I decided to take the stairs last week, I've been doing it everyday. I think I only took the elevator 3 times in the past 8 days! Let me tell you, I WANT to take that elevator every time, but I'm not going to. Having a 4 and 5 year old ask to take the stairs every time has really helped, too.

Also, starting today I will be parking a half mile away from my daughter's school and walking to pick her up. I wasted about a half tank of gas last week just waiting in line to pick her up in the car. I figure that this will be a good way to get more exercise in and save on gas. So, tomorrow is the big day! We'll talk more then.
