This past week I spent at SALTS, I KNOW those same ambivelent feelings of longing for that same thing (but with my dad) and at the same time hating it too and knowing I need to protect myself. It is not easy, is it?It is ok to have the feelings you have. <br /><br />I also know that struggle with the scale. Will you weigh in on a monthly basis or take measurements or anything like that?<br /><br />Love you girl and my heart hurts for you as you live in this longing for your mom!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5483567511669818338.post-86123828516216677522009-09-14T06:21:36.406-04:002009-09-14T06:21:36.406-04:00I'm sorry that Kala is no longer with you and ...I'm sorry that Kala is no longer with you and I can't imagine what you're going through, but I'm glad that you're taking care of yourself and going on that wt. loss challenge.H.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10555156176113515138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5483567511669818338.post-92076370487946404072009-09-01T13:41:03.688-04:002009-09-01T13:41:03.688-04:00I know about having busy schedules, since I haven&...I know about having busy schedules, since I haven't been posting or reading blogs in a very long time.

For the longest time I realized I was afraid to lose weight because I didn't like the person I was when I was a lot lighter. I've changed now & I know just because I lose weight doesn't mean I'm going to go back to that person. I've learned a lot of wisdom along the way!<br /><br />Congrats on the weight loss, that is so awesome!H.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10555156176113515138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5483567511669818338.post-42438283500300702682009-07-07T12:15:54.211-04:002009-07-07T12:15:54.211-04:00I loved reading this and felt moved by the picture...I loved reading this and felt moved by the pictures you posted.

Try to make good choices, but if you slip up, don't beat yourself up.<br />It is so very hard to stay on a healthy eating plan when we are stressed, but you know - life is always stressful! At least you have control over your meals, so make those meals healthy, and you'll feel great about yourself!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10417973646691830257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5483567511669818338.post-37027759821320547632009-06-30T21:36:46.905-04:002009-06-30T21:36:46.905-04:00Take it one day at a time and remember you can do ...Take it one day at a time and remember you can do this.

So I know how you feel. It makes it extra hard when someone you love so much is, without their knowledge, interfering with your goals! <br /><br />I really like what H.K. said, and while she is out of school, maybe you can mix it up! Plan exercise and activities that are rewarding for both of you. Nature hikes, jumping jack challenges, play tag, etc.<br /><br />You have made a lot of progress with your weight loss, and it is obvious you are a very good mommy, so I am sure you will figure out a plan!!Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16615291830525865931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5483567511669818338.post-84131415439502772262009-06-09T23:29:49.160-04:002009-06-09T23:29:49.160-04:00I totally relate!

We've moved several times in the past 4 years and each time my work out schedule has been interrupted.<br /><br />Have you thought of getting a work out video? The 30 day shred with Jillian Michaels is really good. YOu could work out with the video when you can't go out running. <br /><br />Hope your able to work out a plan for the summer, hang in there!H.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10555156176113515138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5483567511669818338.post-47465685980086477042009-05-27T14:55:22.698-04:002009-05-27T14:55:22.698-04:00I am starting a challenge over at my blog if you w...I am starting a challenge over at my blog if you want to join!

I too started to run again, but I need to get some type of inserts for my feet because they've been killing me!<br /><br />I think it's also great that your husband started to run too, even if it was just a little bit, pretty soon it will become a family affair!H.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10555156176113515138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5483567511669818338.post-60818382185926220322009-05-22T15:48:26.128-04:002009-05-22T15:48:26.128-04:00I am SO with you on No. 1I am SO with you on No. 1Kimmiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04857869858228117231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5483567511669818338.post-35904264067993909562009-05-22T10:27:02.643-04:002009-05-22T10:27:02.643-04:00I have goose bumps.

Im sure you had to have felt a little better after gardening all day, there is nothing like being outside on a pretty day! And just think, gardening burns about 350 calories and hour! If you havent tried yoga, try it! It would be great for you. Consitrating on nothing but you and your breathing and you body and afterwards youll look and feel great!
