I finally feel as though I'm caught up in my school life and personal life! Today is a holiday that our government put in mainly to kiss up to voters (my cynical take on it) and it is the first time I actually get to celebrate it as it means a day off from school. I'll be working ahead on some lesson plans and laundry--don't you wish you were me ;)
So, without planning to, I lost 6 pounds! My last post was originally intended to be tongue in cheek but surprise! there was more to Mousercise than meets the eye! Actually, my associate teacher uses it to warm up her second and third grade P.E. classes. It's a series of stretching and cardio exercises that really work up a sweat--not just for the kids but for this teacher (me!) who does each warmup sometimes 4 times a day! My point is that what I had been missing was my exercise. It's not only about what we put into our mouths but what we do for ourselves on the outside. I've been letting the cold weather and busy schedule take me away from it. NO MORE EXCUSES!
I hope that everyone had a great weekend and that we're all ready to face a new week!
*Just a note to a friend who may or may not be reading--thanks for meeting up on Thursday. I'm glad I didn't make an excuse and back out. I really needed a few hours that weren't school related!

Congrats on the big loss! My trainers always said nutrition was the key, but I still lean toward the exercise component!
Enjoy your family day off!
