Kryptonite

SAHM - I think that should stand for SUPER at Home Mom. We chase babies all days while kissing their scrapes and encouraging them. We do laundry, dishes, make the meals, keep the house....standing, and still have patience at the end of the day to do the "wife thing" when our husbands come home. We are SUPER. But, like all SUPER Heroes we have our downfalls. Today is all about my KRYPTONITE!

Food is a definite kryptonite for me. But here are a few of my major weaknesses. 

Regular Pepsi
Dry Cereal - throwing my hand in there and STUFFING it into my face
Cookies
Candy
And, recently, my son's Fruit Snacks. Not just one small package - but, like, a half a box of them! EEK!

So - yesterday I was OK. I did my exercise (Turbo Jam Learn and Burn) and I did NOT have any Regular Soda and only 1 Diet! YAY! But....that damn dry cereal. Calling my name. Quaker Oatmeal Squares in Cinnamon. My son and I ate half the box between us yesterday! I wish I could say I regret it. I really don't. And THAT'S what I regret. That I enjoy what I eat and have no guilt about it. And I wonder I why I am "curvy!"

So today - let's talk about Kryptonite and what is your Iron Box that you keep it in?

Today's Goals 6/28/2011
Do Learn and Burn
Stay away from Dry Cereal

Today's the Day ... or maybe it should be Tomorrow

Hello, interwebs! I'm Jo. This, well, this is my weight loss journey. I wish I could say that this was the end of the journey - but, alas, today is the first day. One of MANY first days I've had along the way...

So, what makes me tick? I will work for recognition. Silly, right? Well, if someone tells me to do something and they'll give me a sticker. Well, I am there - doing it with enthusiasm. Because, well - I want that damn sticker! I am also VERY competitive. You say you can beat me, I say you can't. So if you want to compete - blogger to blogger with body image - let's do it! That being said, I am one of those people who doesn't do it for themselves. I can't buy my own stickers and put them on a board and be happy. Because, well, I bought the damn sticker- ya dig? So, that's the point of this blog. I need recognition from, well - you.

Yup, here's where you come in. I NEED you. I need you to cheer me on. I will put what I did that day for exercise and what I ate. I need your honest feelings (without being cruel) and constructive criticism. But, more importantly, I NEED your support and cheering on!

So today's the day. I will not wait until tomorrow. I will grab the fitness DVD by the horns and put in my 30min. I will watch what I put in my mouth. I will try to stay positive.

Follow me - if you don't want to, well it's Jo Loss!
