Weight This Morning: 160.5lbs
Goal Weight: 150lbs
Mood: Lonely
Well as you can see I have not been posting but I HAVE been working out! I'm getting closer to my goal weight but it's going to be a challenge getting rid of this post pregnancy belly. I just dont even see how it is possible. My stomach looks deformed to say the least.
Today is officially the last day of summer vacation for Rebekah and I cannot believe it is already over! I didnt do as much with her as I would have liked to but overall it was a good summer. Rebekah, Rachel and I were pretty much together every day all day for the past couple of months. Jacob's new job meant that he worked a ton of hours so it was just us girls during their waking hours. I'm glad she's going back to school...I could not stimulate her as much as she needed. I hope she'll enjoy kindergarten in her new school and that she will make lots of good friends. I'm more nervous about her new school than she is...I'm just glad she's a lot more outgoing than I was as a little kid!
So my mood is listed as lonely and that's because although I LOVE staying at home with the kids and I LOVE not having to choose between my family and my job, I feel a little bit left behind by the rest of the world. Even though I feel beyond blessed to be able to stay at home and take care of my family I also feel like I might be viewed as a quitter for not being able to balance work and family. I'm also really nervous at the prospect of returning to work next year after we come back from India. (Yes, we plan to go to India this December.) I wonder how employers will view my job history...I also wonder how I'm going to convince a potential employer that although I do like to work and I really like challenges in the workplace, I have no intention of working a ton of overtime and stealing time away from my family and church. Then there is the flipside of sending Rachel to daycare at such a young age. I cannot even get into the guilt I'm going to have with that decision. I know lots of people do it but I have never wanted to. We were blessed in that Rebekah was with my dad for a long time but I cannot ask him to do that again with Rachel. If he volunteers then I will consider it but I'm not going to ask him. Anyway, hopefully this feeling will pass soon and hopefully, God will provide a smooth transition back to work when He decides it's time. Until then, there is laundry and a sink full of dishes that are calling for my attention!

Finally!
Weight This Morning: 182.5lbs
Goal Weight: 150lbs
Mood: Tired but happy
Per the title of this entry I FINALLY made it to the gym! Lately I've had thoughts about how nice it was to fit into clothes and not be self conscious when going out into public or even at home before I was pregnant with Rachel and I'm really wanting to get back to that place. I am definitely NOT one of those people that is just comfortable with themselves no matter what. So maybe it was this line of thought that finally made me get myself to the gym. Rebekah was home today because they were off for Easter so I waited until Jacob came home from work before I went to the gym. Most days I plan to go during the day and drop Rachel off at my parents' house so they can watch her.
It was a hard workout. I probably pushed myself a little too much considering I'm completely out of shape but so far it doesn't feel like I pulled anything. I hope to be able to say the same thing tomorrow. Now in addition to working out I have to make sure I'm eating well (which is usually not that hard since I typically am good about not sabotaging a work out) and I have to drink a ton of water. Since I'm still nursing I have to make sure Rachel is getting everything she needs. This is going to be hard...I really don't like to drink water. I can and have gone whole days without drinking more than a cup of coffee...this was obviously pre-pregnancy.
Okay so although I really am obsessed with the idea of working out and losing weight I dont want that to be the only thing I think about. I think this blog with help me with that. I have to grow spiritually while I shrink physically. I have something major to work on and that's forgiveness. I never thought I was a person who had a hard time forgiving but it seems like I have to take that back now. These aren't huge grudges that I'm keeping where I have extreme hatred/contempt for people but I physically have to avoid talking to a few people because I'm afraid I will tell them exactly what is on my mind and that wouldn't be good for anyone. I do feel they wronged me or my family but the truth of the matter is they will NEVER see it...if they saw it, it would be one of those "God things" where He just completely changes them/opens up their eyes. So since I'm fairly certain that they will never get it I have to just forgive them AND be ready for them to repeat these offenses because I KNOW they will. At some point I will try to reason with them if something happens again but ONLY if I feel certain that it's coming from God and not from my own anger/irritation. I've been sitting here staring at the screen because I really dont know how I'm going to get myself to not avoid them. It's something I really have to spend more time in prayer about. I talked to Jacob about it a few weeks ago and I was almost in tears because I didnt know how I would ever be able to get over it and what kind of Christian does that make me...Anyway, hopefully in a couple of weeks time I will be able to say that I can be around these individuals and not look for the first opportunity to cut and run.
Disclaimer: I probably will never go back and read my old blogs because I hate re-reading my old thoughts. So if I totally contradict something I said almost two years ago or if I repeat something that I said as if it was a new thought please forgive me! :)

Excuses, Excuses...
Weight this Morning: 184.5lbs
Goal:150lbs
Mood: Guilty
Okay so I just checked email - which is something else I'm trying to be better about - and I saw Aubrey's comment and then the excuses I've had for not working out have all come flooding back. I thought about listing them here but why bother. Whatever the excuse the result is still the same...no trips to the gym. I wont make it today either but maybe tomorrow? I have been eating well and that's an accomplishment for me. Typically, if I'm not working out I definitely don't care about what I eat...it's usually all or none.
I feel sorry for my husband. He has been working like a dog lately. He has been leaving very early in the morning and coming back very late at night for the past two weeks. And it doesnt look like things will let up yet. Part of me gets slightly irritated from time to time because that's longer I'm with the kids by myself without help but I know he would much rather be here than there. I'm just praying that God will make things better for him very soon. I miss having him around and I hate to hear him dreading work so much. It brings back memories of last year.
Speaking of last year, I'm nervous about working again. I still have awhile before I have to go back to work but before I know it January will be here. I've really been enjoying being at home. Even when both kids are driving me completely nuts I would STILL choose to be at home with them than work. I like being able to pay attention to them and not be stressed out so much about the limited time I have to clean the house, run errands, take care of the kids and cook food. To be honest, I still dont get time to get everything done but I blame that on Rachel and her ridiculously long feedings. I'm also nervous about being able to get another job. What if no one wants me and we run out of money! I have quit the last three jobs because the hours have been too long. I don't want to get into that situation again. The truth still remains that my priorities in life are my family and church. If work is going to consistently take time away from those activities I'm going to be unhappy again. I feel like some might think that I'm being unrealistic and if it is and I cant find a job that will give me normal hours at least most of the time I'm going to have to get out of finance I guess. God help me if I have to go back to school...
Rebekah is about done eating her apple which means my free time is over. I should read this over before posting but then I dont have time now so forgive me for grammatical errors and for jumping from one thought to the next without any warning.

Has it really been THAT long???
My weight this morning: 186.5lbs
Goal weight: 150lbs
Mood: Hopeful and eager
So quite a bit has happened since the last time I got on here...I switched jobs and then I quit that job too, I was within 15 pounds of my goal weight, went to my brother in law's wedding in Puerto Rico, got pregnant, had a beautiful baby and gained all of my weight back and then some and became a stay at home mom! Rachel is the latest edition to our family and she is already six months old. Which means I've had six months to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight but I digress...I thank God for her...she is as beautiful and as sweet as her big sister.
So after chit chatting with my s-i-l last week at church I decided to start this thing back up again. But I'm revising my goal weight. My goal weight is 150lbs. I got to 154lbs when we went to Puerto Rico and I was very happy at that weight. But 150 is a nice even number. 36.5lbs is a daunting amount of weight to lose but I lost more than that last time so it can be done. The only issue is getting the appropriate amount of recovery/rest every day. I'm having major issues with Rachel's nursing/sleeping. She's bullying me because I have let her. I need to get her back in the crib and i need to get her nursing at a normal schedule. But before I stress about all of that I will just give myself two goals today: Workout AND eat five small healthy meals today.
We are going to Florida in two weeks. I will no doubt still be uncomfortably big for the trip but oh well nothing I can do at this point. I have to make sure that I at least stay on my game for the next two weeks so that I will be happy to continue the good habits while we are in Florida. Prior to the Puerto Rico trip I really had changed the way I ate and that was wonderful; however, once pregnant I succumbed to every pregnancy craving I had. So I'm at that point where healthy food and eating small portions just isn't that appealing to me.
I am thankful to God for helping me memorize a couple of Psalms. I have Psalm 23 re-memorized (I knew it as a kid) and I'm working on Psalm 121. I want to memorize a lot of scripture so that I can just pull from it when needed. I want to have the desire to give more of my life over to God and I think memorizing scripture will help me get closer to that goal. More on that later.
Rachel is ready to eat!

Half way there!
Weight this Morning: 170lbs!
Goal Weight: 140lbs
Mood: Anxious
So I finally hit my half way point no thanks to me because I have not worked out in over a week but I have at least been eating decently. I'm almost certain that the only reason I have reached my mid point goal is because I have lost some muscle but oh well. I will not look a gift horse in the mouth....I have no idea if I phrased that cliche correctly and I dont know its origin but you get what I mean. I now have one month to lose some more weight before our church retreat and a wedding in Houston. I have got to get my rear in gear from a workout standpoint. My mom left yesterday for her last minute trip to India to help my grandparents so the last week consisted of us spending time with her or helping where we could. Working out was definitely pushed to the back burner. Now that she's gone for a month (she should be in the air as I type this)I need to start working out in the evenings so I can relieve my dad a little bit earlier with Rebekah. I'm hoping my sister will also be available to go to the gym with me. She indirectly motivates me because I would like to be her size again. I was going to write more but got distracted and now dont feel like finishing so....The End!

Hodge Podge
Weight This Morning: 172.5lbs
Goal Weight: 140lbs
Mood: Tired and Confused mixed in with Thankful
Oh where to begin...I guess quick pointless weightloss update. Given my use of the term "pointless" I think it's obvious that I haven't worked out in forever and I ate like a person trying to gain 35 pounds rather than lose 35 pounds all weekend. I didnt get my workout in yesterday either because I think I was avoiding the gym. BUT I now have an MP3 player with updated songs and I truly cannot wait to hear them while on the treadmill! So I'll be stopping there before going to pick up Rebekah this afternoon...God willing!
My mom is going to India because my grandparents can use some extra help. My grandmother (Amma) had surgery and is recovering while my grandfather (Appachen) has quite a few lung problems and other issues that he was hospitalized for. They are both doing much better now and are at home but I'm sure having one of their children come home will help and I know my mom really wants to see them. I havent been to India since 1995 and I feel terrible about it. There's always something...Current issue is lack of vacation mixed in with the fact that with Rebekah's limited food choices I'll have a tough time keeping her well fed. I need to go though. She needs to meet her only living great grandparents and she is their first great grandchild and they really want to see her. I hope God will provide a very obvious way for us to go. In the meantime, my mom will leave on Thursday and will be gone for a month.
This past weekend was incredible! We had our Girl's Bible Study which included almost all of our church girls as well as some of my close girlfriends. The topic we studied was Eternal Perspective and we focused on Hebrews 12:1-2 and 2Samuel 11:1-12:25. Julie and I have been talking about the topic for awhile and we worked like crazy putting the study together and praying that God would allow it to be a blessing to everyone that came. Given everyone's reactions it seemed like God really answered our prayers. I'm really encouraged by the response we got. I did notice though that it is really hard not to accidentally steal a little glory from God. I have literally been praying that God would not let me get any kind of big head just because this went so well. It's really hard when everyone is saying how much they enjoyed the study to not think "Wow, I actually did a good job!" I know with all of my heart that the only reason it went so smoothly is because of God but I think consciously reminding myself of that every once in awhile helps keep my feet on the ground. I really did enjoy working on the study though and I hope God will continue to teach me things and help me to keep participating in this kind of thing. I also hope that I will always be willing to do it.
Rebekah is doing good. She is growing so quickly - mentally anyway - and I feel like we cant keep up. Her reasoning skills, her vocabulary and her sometimes smart mouth continue to amaze us. I think she's going through her terrible three's which I did hear about from other parents and I just feel like I am again being inconsistent in the way I am reacting to her attitude. I just need to pray for wisdom because intuition is not making me feel too comfortable. She still can be such a sweet little girl though...she's quick with "I love you very much" and "I missed you so much when you were at work" and the big tight hugs around the neck but when her evil twin appears I am instantly beaten down. Cannot imagine life without her though!!!

Nostalgia
Weight This Morning: 174lbs
Goal Weight: 140lbs
Mood: Undecided/Sleepy
So last night for some reason Jacob decided to put on our wedding video. When it comes to our wedding video Jacob and I have opposite roles in comparison to the norm. He would watch it once a week or maybe once a month whereas we have now been married almost 5 years and last night was only the second time I'd ever seen it. I am also not the typical girl when it comes to wedding. I can certainly appreciate attending a nicely planned wedding but I have absolutely no interest in discussing the details of everything. Wedding planning was a horrible beating for me. By the day of the wedding I hadnt slept in two days and I was exhausted. Everything went off well and without any VISIBLE hitches but I just have a very real memory of how stressed and tired I was the morning of my wedding. So I really hate to watch that video and recall my mood that morning. Obviously as the day progressed the stress wore off and you can see how genuinely happy I am at the reception. It truly was probably the greatest day of my life but I still cant help cringe when I think about that morning. Anyway, because we watched that video I stayed up later than usual and that's why I'm sleepy today.
I did get some cooking done. I cooked some Indian food last night. Nothing difficult but even the "easy" stuff takes me some time to do. I still have more cooking to do but I probably wont get to that until Thursday. Tonight I'm going to meet two old coworkers up for dinner. I miss my old coworkers. I kind of grew up at the last company I worked for. I started there while I was still in college, got married while I was there, had a kid while I was there, and had all kinds of personal drama during that 6 years. I left because the company was not the same as it once was but I miss being around people that I knew and that knew me. We're going to have Mexican tonight which is absolutely my biggest weakness. I could eat chicken enchiladas, rice and refried beans everyday and not get sick of it. That being said I absolutely cannot eat that tonight! Somehow I'm going to have to find something healthy to eat tonight. I wonder how many calories are in refried beans...I really want to work out before dinner too but I dont know if I'll be able to swing that either. I guess I'll you know what happens!

I wonder how many calories are in refried beans...I really want to work out before dinner too but I dont know if I'll be able to swing that either. I guess I'll you know what happens!
