Starting A New Thing...

I've been feeling unmotivated and sleeping 11 hours a night. Staying at home a lot and not socializing much. LOOKING FOR A JOB. Got a lot of crocheting done...I made three prayer shawls last week.
Mentally and spiritually I think I'm okay, but physically I'm just not moving. Who knew there was such a thing as physiological depression, which is what I think this is?
So I got off the Pepsi, replaced it with - wait for it! - WATER, and got on the treadmill. Okay, once so far, but it's something! And as for the dreaded headache? Nope. Only a hint of a hovering threat yesterday, and then it was gone! Thank you, Jesus! I sincerely appreciate that favor.
Oh! And I've also been avoiding my allergen foods. (DUH!) That's made me feel a whole lot better already. I have good, healthy food in the fridge and am actually eating it!

Day 4 @ Caffeine-Free
Day 1 @ Workout: 20 minutes walking on the treadmill (Also, Beth and I took the boys to the zoo yesterday. Does that count?)
Physical Goals: lose 85 lbs overall, lose 5+ dress sizes, become healthy and fit!
Workout Goals: At least 5 times a week, 20 minutes a day for now. Will change it when I get used to exercising.

How you can pray for me:

1. That I would stay motivated to GET OUT OF THE HOUSE and go exercise.
2. That I would continue to stay off the caffeine. They say it takes three weeks to break the habit.
3. That I would make good food choices, especially when eating out.

I'll keep you posted with my successes and failures, and we'll see where I am this time next year. Hopefully I'll be most of the way to my goal!
