Me and my Hubby went out last night by our selves. It was soo nice. It opened my eyes up to some changes that I need to do for myself.
One of them is to start being nicer to my kids. I need to stop yelling and talk to them. Treat them as human beings with feelings. I just get sooo frustrated when they don't listen to me. I need to stay calm and TALK to them. Not to yell but to talk. Then maybe I would not feel like I was living in a zoo all the time. Maybe my kids will actually start listening to me and they might stop yelling as well.
Second. I need to loose weight. I need to stop eating after 8:oopm. And I need to start to drink more water. Cut back on tea (mmm tea) and maybe my alchol. Don't get me wrong. I really do not drink that much. I might have a glass at night. If that. Nothing major. But still I should be drinking water. I should really be exercising more as well. I am glad that the clocks have moved ahead as it is lighter at night longer now. I can finaly go back to my nightly walks after putting the kids to bed. And I also want to start lifting weights with Robin again.
So yes, those are my two life changing things I need to work on! They will be diffucult as I have been doing both for soo long now. But it will make me a better person for sure! And my kids will be happier too!

Good for you to make that decision. Its not a easy thing to try and lose some weight trust me I have been trying for 20 years. Will power is my big enemy. But once you put your mind to it you can do it. I just wish some days I could do it. I am hoping to soon. My sister in law has been working on it and she looks amazing. She has gone from being 300lbs to 150lbs. It has been a long road for her but she has done it. I look at her for inspiration. I have her picture on the fridge.... in hopes that will make me think about what I am about to eat. My big down fall is I don't drink enough water either. My friend is diet pepsi. Alot of diet pepsi. But I have gotten myself up to 2 bottles of water a day. I guess its a start. Good luck Shawna I am sure that you can do it. As for being nice to the kids and stop yelling I know that some days that is overly hard but as long as you are consistant in the things you say and the actions you do they will start to listen. Good luck my friend.
Thank you for all your kind words Tanya! I sure am trying to change my ways. But I'm not doing that great on the snacking side as I had popcorn last night. Sigh! Oh well. Baby steps right? I guess everyone has goods and bad days!
