Nov 9-14 (Owen is 15 weeks)

Monday - ate perfectly over the weekend. I've made some new goals for myself. 2 mile jog outside, jogged (and shuffled!) the whole distance, not walking. good job me
Tuesday - ate perfectly, 3 min center plank, 3 min reverse plank, 44 seconds each side hand plank
Wednesday - ate perfectly, little bit of stretching but no real workout, but what can I say, it's a Wednesday.
Thursday -  ate perfectly, 2 mile jog outside after the kids got home from school so they could watch Owen - jogged the whole time. Saw an infomercial for Cize today... Wesley and I were pretty convinced it's the answer to all our problems. ;) just what we need to make it through the coming winter months.
Friday - ate perfectly, only exercise I did was six 10 second "let downs" - the only thing close to a "pull up" that I can do right now. I also watched an infomercial for Cize and it sold me, except I'm pretty sure it'd end up never being used with all my other exercise DVDs. Still might be worth the 60 bucks if it kicks me in gear for a few months. Weight has plateaued at 156 for the past 3 weeks.
Saturday - nothing. ate perfectly, began a fast at noon, will finish at noon tomorrow. I think I'm going to do a 24 hour fast every Saturday to Sunday, cause I can always find something to fast and pray for, and cause I have like 16 years of not fasting very much to make up for.

Oct 19 - 24 (Owen is 12 weeks)

Monday - Owen is 12 weeks today. 12 weeks - seems like a good time to start a 12 week program, hmmm, I'll look into that. Today I ate perfectly again, yay. For exercise today - get this: I held a center plank for 3 minutes! I haven't done that since back in the Kristi Approved days of 2010. I thought it was crazy then, still do, but I was able to do it! I was dying and it rocked my hips to the ligaments, but felt pretty empowered afterwards. Then did side planks for as long as I could - 30 seconds, on right, 45 on left, then did each side again to complete 60 seconds total.
Tuesday - ate perfectly. 2.5 mile walk/jog outside, lovely rainbow! tmi, had major time in the bathroom last night and this morning from the cup of wheat berries I've started to have daily - first serving Sunday, then yesterday and it is definitely a digestive cleanser. Witch hazel is my current bff.
Wednesday - ate perfectly, no workout (it's our typical busy Wednesday)
Thursday - 2 mile jog outside (6 laps around block)
Friday - ate almost perfectly, 3:17 center plank, side planks for 35 and 45 seconds

But back on it. (started a personal fast after lunch.) Did 100 Romanian Deadlifts and 6 pull up hangs for 10 seconds each (before I try to do pull ups I thought I should start by trying to help my hands be able to grip the bar to hold me!)
