OK... Let's try this again!

So... I've been back on program for 4 days straight... YEA ME!!! I always have a hard time getting going, but I think I'm officially back. I even went to Red Robin last night and wasn't even tempted by the fries (I'm thinking that's a sin to not eat fries at RR!!!) I was only there for the end, but I was offered some... and turned them down! Then they had fondue going on at the house we went to and I didn't eat a bite! YIKES!!! I must really want this!
-----
The reason I want this??? Chuck and I were called to be a "Ma & Pa" for our stake trek this October and I want to finish losing my weight and get into better shape so they don't have to bury their Ma on the way! So... I have journaled these past 4 days, staying w/in my POINTS for the day and drank 80-100 ozs of water each day. And today we had "Trek Bootcamp" and I got my butt kicked! I know I'm gonna feel it in my legs tomorrow! They feel like lead/jello-y weights right now (IYKWIM). My arms and abs I work out off and on, so they won't be as sore, but we did lunges and stadium stairs... the things I'm not use to doing! I can handle walking laps and stuff, but those stairs were a killer (especially after doing the circuits of strength training and fast-paced walking). But I'm good.
-----
I'm really determined to do this because I want to feel good... oh- and look HOT! So here's to this adventure. School resumes in 7 1/2 weeks (for me) and I want to be down at least 10 lbs by then... so with faith, trust and a little bit of pixie dust... I'M OFF!!!
-----
And I can't believe I'm posting this... but I NEVER WANT TO BE FAT AGAIN!!!
EEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWW!!! GROSS!!!
But my kids are sure cute!
This was taken Christmas of 2005... just before I started losing weight!
