Okay, so I am finally stepping into the world of blogging. I gave birth to my fourth child three months ago, and I have set up this blog to make me accountable for losing weight! I'm going to link this, so that friends will be able to read it. I've got to stick with it. I'm going to be thirty-five on May 29, 2007. I want to be trim and fit by then - thirty five pounds lighter. Get it? Thirty-five by thirty-five? :-) It's going to be tough because I am definitely an emotional eater, and things are very stressful right now. We are trying to get our house ready to put on the market in April, and that on top of raising four children is stressful. I've made a commitment to exercise for at least 20 minutes a day, but hopefully 35 minutes. I'm also eating very healthfully. I try to follow the guidelines of Joel Fuhrman, MD.

I think it's going to take me a while to get used to this blogging thing, but hopefully I'll get the hang of it pretty soon. We have a snow storm moving in, so I went walking with my husband and three of my kiddos this afternoon (the oldest is at school). Pulling 73 pounds in a wagon takes the work out up a notch! We walked for 30 minutes. And we're off!
