Lifestyle Change

So here it is out in the open for the whole world to see. I have officially let myself go. I am not living life. I am just sitting thru life. Waiting for the next thing to happen. From today on, I am going to change!!! I have put on 25 pounds that I need to get off. The more weight that I put on the slower I get. I do not play with my kids as much because I am to tired, and that is a vicious cycle. I am tired so I don't move, I don't move and that makes me more tired. Here is a list of things that I am going to change. If there is anyone that wants to join me in being a better all around person then shoot me an email.

The New Me:
1. Wake up before 8:30 (I know that seems late to most of you but I am a night owl and my kids do not wake up before 10:00.
2. After I am up, I am going to take that quiet time and read my scriptures.
3. WORK OUT!!! My goal is to be able to run 3 miles without stopping
4. Eat Breakfast and get kids dressed before 10:00AM
5. Eat less at meals
6. Cook More vegetables
7. Do something for someone else at least once a week without being asked
8. Play with my kids more, they are growing up so fast and I am afraid that I am missing it.
9. Not to yell at my kids!! It does not help and I need a better approach.( Any suggestions)
10. Enjoy Life. Not what is going to happen but enjoy life right now, I want to enjoy the ages of my kids I want to enjoy all the things that we can DO and forget about the things we can't.
11. Last but not least I want to be Strong, Confident, Secure, and Caring.

Thanks for reading!! I want everyone to hold me accountable for everything.
No one can make me Happy but myself!!

!!!Here are some things to think about!!!
1.When in doubt, just take the next small step.
2.You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
3.Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
4.Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.
5.Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.
6.Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.
7.Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.
8.No one is in charge of your happiness but you.
9.Frame every so-called disaster with these words 'In five years, will this matter?
10.What other people think of you is of your business..
11.Time heals almost everything. Give time time.
12.However good or bad a situation is, it will change.
13.Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
14.Believe in miracles.
15.Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.
16.Your children get only one childhood.
17.If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.
18.Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
19.No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up
