I am officially on shopping Ban!

I need to keep myself motivated on the weight loss journey and I thought what better way to do it than to ban myself from going shopping! Is this going to hard.....YES!!! I live downtown and whenever I go walking I am almost likely to go into a store. I plan on leaving my money at home along with my credit cards. I will only take enough to enjoy a snack if I am hungry.
My ban will be over when I reach 150 pounds or June sometime in the middle of the month when I leave to go to Boston and New York. I figure why buy more now when I can get better items in the states and a better body to make it look good:)
Also as I lose weight I will be able to fit into some of the clothing I have not worn in about 2 years. Hello 7 jeans I am coming to getcha~!

Happy Monday!!!

Unlike most people who dread the beginning of the the week, I love Mondays. To me Mondays represent freedom, Sanity and new adventures:)

How is this possible you may ask? Well after having both of my active boys at home, my sometimes overbearing husband asking me rhetorical questions the entire weekend and no time to myself unless I am in the bathroom or at the gym; I have discovered Mondays have become my Fridays.

All in all I had a good weekend. My birthday was fine and I can not believe I am 31. I remember when my mom turned 31! I am trying to get the best body ever this year. I know if I do not achieve it this year I never will so thats enough motivation for me!

I am going to Yoga in about an hour. I love yoga but I had about a 1 year break and it has never been the same as it was before. I just can not get my body to do the things it once found easy.

Happy Monday to everyone and I hope this week brings you lots of sunshine:)

It is just too cold!!!

This is my city  park in the summer

So its March! How could I have thought that nice weather we had a few weeks back, would continue and we would have an early spring? I am so upset!!

I love all seasons but, usually when they just start:) In the winter I enjoy the first month or so. I love the first snowfall, the first really cold day that you have to put on your heavy Jacket, bypass everything else then there is Christmas, New Years and all the birthdays in my house and then I am ready for spring.

I love early springs. I enjoy the rain, the birds singing, the first blossoms on the trees, shoot I love to see the first buds.
Summer I enjoy being able to be free not jacket, no sweater. I love late sunshine. Eating outside  in the city. The nice cold wind at just the right time-AHHH just the thought. Then of course, I love fall just for the Fashion! The new wardrobe that includes all things chunky, thick and black!!!

So where was I? I wrote this all to say I want spring.... Now!  Snow is March is so UNCOOL!

If you procrastinate a lot.....

and you have been thinking about taking classes online, DON'T DO IT!!! LOL

I have been taking classes online for a year straight and I swear between being a mommy, wife, foodist, shopaholic, beer drinker, cook, housekeeper, army reservist, photographer and the list goes on I really am not remotely interesting in doing homework.Oh, did I include youtube junky, new blogger, Magazine lover and meetup.com expat group organizer-Ugh I am tired just thinking of it all.
Vent over back to my homework;)
