Well... it's 10:38pm. Had a great day with the family filled with tons of good food, lacrosse in our front yard, and me spending too much time in front of the computer. It's funny... I think people must think I spend way more time at the computer than I really do. Most of the time I have to force myself to sit still and get this sorta thing done. Hence the 2 years of having this website and NEVER setting it up!
Took Kris and the girls to get some ice cream tonight. I enjoyed my milkshake and told myself that it will be some time before any ice cream crosses my lips again! Man, for a girl who's secret vice is Phish Food ice cream from Ben and Jerrys, those are fighting words.
Although part of me is like "what the heck am I thinking?" I think this whole blog/pic/perhaps video idea is going to help me remain accountable. How can you go wrong when you have such an incredible network of support? My wife has been on a mission since the beginning of this year to eat healthfully.. hasn't had a sip of soda, and has clearly lost weight because of her good decisions. I'm so proud of her for so many reasons... she is incredible.
You know what else makes me smile? I told Jaidenne that this would be the last ice cream I'll be eating for a while. She asked why and I told her that I'm going to be eating very strictly and healthy for the next 30 days. Her response? "Oh ok! Well I'll go running with you if you want to!" What a great kid.
So who knows... I've hated running my entire life. Maybe I'll turn over a new leaf? But for now... let's get through Day 1! Thanks to everyone on Facebook who has already begun cheering me on :) And to everyone who said they are in... speak up! Let's hear how you're feeling. Tomorrow I'm going to try to do a video. We will see how that goes...lol. Maybe I'll get Jaidi in on it... hahah.
