uh. Change

For the most part, I am not a fan of change. Lately though, life events have got me re-wiring my thinking and just jumping into it..the feeling akin to jumping into a cold pool. The best way to acclimate the body is full immersion. So me, being me, that is exactly what I'm doing. These are the top three changes I am currently working on:

1) Weight Watchers.

They have this new program called Points Plus and last night I reviewed my material and today started tracking via this new system and lo and behold it was not as "difficult" as I thought it was going to be. I actually "enjoy" tracking electronically via ipad, latop, or android.

*As an update, I am happy to report that as of this morning's weigh-in I have maintained the weight I've lost through the old system and somehow managed to lose 2 pounds without trying ...That I can attribute to nursing and Gavin's most recent growth spurt.*

hassle free tracking

2) Fix yo-self-up girl!

I thought that I ascribed to the mind set of "look good, feel good" but now mother to two my mantra most resembles "comfy = frumpy." In my everyday-frump-gear, one would not believe that I once upon a time held the title of "Best Dressed" in high school. To be honest, these days I've not even taken the time to figure out  what looks good on me, so I wear whatever. Today, I changed this by putting on my contacts because I hear glasses age you at least 10 years. Then I put on some makeup. Tomorrow, I'm going to schedule a shopping date with my sexy sissy who is the least frumpy person I know (and love)!

hello? who is THAT?

3) Moving more

The word "exercise" to me conjures up negative images of myself getting very tired, very fast. So, I am changing that word to "moving." Dancing, jogging, even walking with Gavin in the bjorn. SOMETHING for a sustained period of time, everyday.

Cheers all, to Change..and have a Charmed & Blessed 2011!
