Fitness Friday

Awhile back I used to do weekly weight loss (or lack thereof) updates every Friday.  I've decided to start doing that again, for at least the next 4 weeks, because I desperately need some accountablility, not that it's ever worked in the past but it still can't hurt.  It's coming up on 2 years that I've been struggling with repeatedly losing and regaining the same 3 or 4 pounds over and over.  And the one time I did lose more, 9 pounds last May, I managed to gain all that back and then some.  I'm really tired of it.

So starting today, I commit to posting weekly for the next 4 weeks about my efforts.  I'm not going to set an actual goal of losing x number of pounds, I just want to concentrate on breaking this cycle.  One thing I'm trying to do is not necessarily eliminate, but cut way back on bread, potatoes, pasta, rice and sweets.  Now that I'm getting older and entering into perimenopausal territory (I think, and I'm "only" 43, it's not like I'm pushing 50), carbs are wanting to stick around more easily than before, I'm noticing.  So that is going to be my focus in the coming week.  After our spaghetti dinner tonight :)

Transfer Anniversary

Today is the 5-year anniversary of my embryo transfer!  5 years ago today I became pregnant with my girls (I wrote about it in more detail a few years ago).  It was a Saturday that year, also. Olivia and Kayley at 3 days post conception (wish I knew which one was which): And Olivia and Kayley 5 years later: That photo is actually a few weeks old.  I tried to take one for today and this is what I ended up with: {Sigh}

First Snow of 2025

Yesterday it snowed for the first time this year.  I love when it snows when I don't have to go anywhere and can just stay home and admire it.  It snowed more today, and we took Kona out for a walk in the woods.  So pretty.

Senior Prom

Last Friday was the girls' Senior Prom.  A whole group of them met at a nearby park for photos, then they broke off into smaller groups and went to dinner and Prom.  Olivia and her group rented an Air B&B for the night, and Kayley spent the night at a friend's house with another friend or two. Olivia and Gavin (just friends) Everyone Just the guys Just the girls Olivia and Kayley
