Starting March off Right...Almost

My plan was to start off March with a bang and make sure that I'm making good habits instead of the bad one's I've been stuck in again! I have several things I'm working on but March was going to be my "On Plan 99% of Time" month for Trim Healthy Mama. I wanted to meal plan, prep and maybe even get some meals put in the freezer so I could pull them out on busy days but then this happened...
Snow days here in OK are different then CO because they don't care for the roads the same way CO does with magcloride and it's warmer here so the snow first turns to ice and then it gets covered up with snow as the temperature drops. So with all that said...no grocery shopping today :( 

My hope is that I can get out tomorrow late morning and hit the stores before the crowd. I won't be going to church because I'm not going to drive that far but the grocery store will be a must. Plus if I can hit the grocery store during regular church times then the stores won't be to busy. I'm just going to have to wait and see what happens. Hopefully I won't have to put off my plans for a few days while I wait for the weather to change. Hopefully I can still start everything tomorrow. I'm going to make these changes! Just being on plan about 50% of the time for the month of February I lost 6 pounds and that includes eating a complete Blue Bell container of ice cream in 2 1/2 days. See bad habits! I ate it because I wasn't feeling good about how I have been as a mom and homemaker so ice cream had to be eaten to help. This habit has to break and quickly!

I'd love to hear about your beginnings with THM and/or maybe what you will be doing to stick to plan! Having a support team makes things much easier!

  1. Yes, good job for starting March off right! How's it going so far?!
    I feel the same need for some change this month, but instead in regard to my grocery bill. I MUST go to the cheaper store (Trader Joe's) even though it's SOO much farther than the other stores I like to go to (Sprouts). I can literally cut our grocery bill by about 40% when I use solely Trader Joe's! Which rocks because they're much healthier in my opinion (especially when you can't eat all the goodies that they set out at eye level for you to be tantalized by the whole time!) So yay, we can both DO it! Rah rah, Kari!

Day 2 of 31 Day to Clean

So I have told you the other day that I'm going to start 31 Days to Clean by Sara Mae. (For that post go to 31 days to clean post). So I'm finally on day 2 after several days in between. This will be the way it is for me because not everyday I will be able to tackle a big task, like day number 2, but I did it today and that is what counts. So what was day 2...clean the refrigerator and freezer (at least the Martha part) so that's what I did. I cleaned the refrigerator not that long ago but I figured I would just do it again and I'm glad. Just after about 2 months (maybe 3) it really needed cleaned again and I'm really happy that it looks really nice and I can find all the stuff that is in there again. I think that I'm going to put this on my To Do list every other month. I think that would be really helpful and that way it stays clean. I'm just going to put it in my day planner and when I have some free time on day I will do it that month. Sounds like a pl...

WEDDING! Part 2: The Day Of

**Warning more Picture overload!** I couldn't help it! WEDDING DAY! (August 6, 2005) On our wedding day I was so excited! I got ready at my parents house and J. and the guys got ready at our house. It was so much fun to get our hair done at a long time friends  hair salon .  After that we headed over to my parents house to start getting ready.    Everyone was busy getting me ready and many people were up my dress trying to get my 'fluff' to stay up so I didn't have to hold my dress us when walking.  My dad was kicked out of the house until I was done. I wanted him to get the whole sh-a-bang when he walked in. This was interesting. I had to climb into the truck but was not allowed to step on the tailgate and I couldn't see my feet. It was so funny! It looks like we were going fast but we really weren't but that's how we got to the park.  THE CEREMONY! After all that hard work to make it so I ...

Monkey's Surgery

So I finally downloaded pictures and I thought I'd share the cute pictures of my little boy after his surgery he had in April. No one should have surgery at 3 years old but poor little Monkey had to have his gallbladder removed due to his blood disorder called spherecytosis.  I had to stay in bed with him afterwards. He didn't want me to go anywhere. However, being pregnant made it so I had to use the bathroom quite often so luckily he was OK with Aunt Tiffany or Grandma holding his hand while I went. He hadn't been aloud to eat for almost 48 hours. He was starving! He ate almost the whole plate of pancakes and the nurses were shocked he could eat so much. They kept encouraging us to get him up and out of the room later in the afternoon after the surgery. So we headed out in the wagon first. He wasn't to happy about being moved and we made him walk a little bit in the room but he was glad to be out.  Granny and Great Po...
