June - 1st week

I only exercised twice this week. But, if I'm honest, my goal was improvement, not perfection. And improvement I definitely have made. Pathetic excuse? Perhaps. On the menu planning front, I've been feeling pretty discouraged. The problem is, I don't feel like eating anything. At least not anything I have to cook. At some point I have to acknowledge that my job is to feed my family and whether I eat it or not is irrelevant, but even the thought of cooking is somewhat repulsive. I just wish someone else could do it for me. But, this is only for a season, and I can press on! Improvement is the goal, and so I work toward that. I'll be able to eat normally again someday soon.... :) But for the life of me, I can hardly picture a life without cold cereal for breakfast most days of the week! (Who wants hot cereal or eggs in June?)

Hmmm...

Well, it's been awhile. Last week I didn't exercise at all, but it was over 80 degrees every day and we had carpet replaced and..... This week we're at 2 times already, so doing well. :)
I got menu plans in place (except for snacks) but I'm not actually using them yet. I started working on a grocery list (this month's task) but that's not going so well. I think I need a Sams' Club list, so I'm not buying the same things every week....
I'm definitely feeling like it's time to get in baby mode. I hope to nail down the menu/grocery list thing this month though. I've no idea what I scheduled for next month, maybe reading a book a week. That shouldn't be too hard. :)
So there you go. Not on top, but not defeated!
