The days are merging together…

My sleep continues to evade me and my days are muddling together. At least I have started walking again. I went yesterday, but I will skip today. Then, tomorrow, I will go walk again. Hopefully, I can get a cheap pair of tennis shoes from either payless or Wal-Mart. This way, I will not incur anymore blisters from walking in crappy shoes… well, hopefully anyway.

My plan for walking is to walk Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for the 1st 2 weeks. Then, After that add Tuesday the 3rd week, and during the 4th week skip Tuesday, but add Thursday. And, during the 5th week and every week past, I will walk Monday through Friday. And, during the time after the kids leave for school and before I get ready for work, I have been doing crunches to tighten my abs.

I want to be able to fit into my jeans again as well as fit into a decent bathing suit for summer this year. Now,  I am not exactly fat, but I am out of shape. I just want a flatter tummy area and to be more toned… without losing my butt! I actually quite like my butt. Oh, and I would not mind a few more muscles and to be a bit stronger and healthier.

Now, let’s hope I can stick to it and not have the weather piss on my plans.

Help losing weight?

Seriously, I feel humongous! In the past week or so I’ve gained almost 5 pounds! What the hell? I haven’t changed my diet or my routine. I’ve only added a new med 2 days ago. I don’t understand. I am gaining weight and I need to lose it.

What can I do to help me lose this weight? I need to lose about 30 pounds to be where is healthiest for me. I will settle with 20 pounds though.

I need suggestions that fit in with me working a desk job everyday, not driving anywhere, my meds, and me having kids. I can no longer fit into my pants, and I need to. I don’t want to lose my ass, but my sides and thighs, I do.

Please, any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
