Nutrisystem Update Week 10 Inspiration

With so much going on I get slightly discouraged. I feel like I am failing myself. It helps me to watch videos and gain inspiration through motivational speaking. Even just reading some of the success stories on the Nutrisystem website helps me to feel motivated to remain on track.

I am so glad winter is almost over. I feel so great, and I am looking forward to getting outside in my shorts. I cannot wait to get to the pool this summer and in my flower garden even sooner than that. It is nice to feel good and energetic for a change. I haven't used to have this kind of energy. I have always felt sort of lazy and set in my ways. I am glad I am feeling better about being active.

Weekly Motivation:
If you over did it yesterday, get back on track today with a big glass of water. In case you haven't heard, water is pretty great for you: It can improve the look and feel of your skin, give you more energy, and keep you feeling full.

Nutrisystem Update Week 9 Effects on the Family

My time is definitely being stretched thin with my father being sick. I am trying my best to stick to the best choices. I have noticed that when I am cooking for the family I still want to eat their food. So what I have been doing is making sure to be making the healthier options of meals choices for them too. If I mention it to them they will balk, but if I don't say anything they never even notice.
I have been feeling better in general and that makes for a happier and healthier mom. How does that saying go? When mom is happy everyone is happy? That hold true around my house for sure.
I am down to 362 this week. Still feeling good about my weight loss. I could do better though.

Nutrisystem Update Week 8 New Clothes?

Life has been so crazy lately. I have not been sticking to my meal plan like I should be. I try to make healthier choices when away from home but I still feel like I should be doing better.
I am still slowly losing weight though so I guess I'm doing something right. I went through my closet the other day and I managed to fit into a pair of jeans I haven't worn in about 2 years. It felt so good! Almost like getting new clothes.
Sorry this is just a short update this week. Will post more next week.


Weekly Inspiration:
Get outside. Do whatever it takes and whatever you feel up to, but leave the four walls behind and get outside.
Go for a walk. Ride a bike. Play with the kids. Go to the park. Watch the locals play soccer. Work in the garden. Or simply drag a chair outside!
