So I was back at work all week. I really like teaching high school math, but I also loved being home all the time, but I really love saving money for college tuitions and retirement, but getting six people out of the house in the mornings is hard, but... Well, I could go on forever. It is what it is.
I have been walking 5-6 days a week. It feels really great. I have dropped about 10 lbs in the last month. I am also doing the 8 Minutes in the Morning by Jorge Cruise. It is quick, easy, and a good work out. I definitely see the difference.
With my daughter having celiac disease and my oldest having high cholesterol, we have really had to change how we eat. Having a plan for the week is helping there. Part of the problem is that Alex cannot lose any weight. Most people, when they lower their cholesterol, also need to lose weight. If anything, Alex could afford to gain a few pounds. We are working at it. Reading the chapter in the You the Owners Manual was very helpful to both of us. When we went shopping for lunches today, he picked out turkey hot dogs, Sun Chips, and low fat yogurt. I was proud of him for being able to do that.
School starts tomorrow. I better pack back packs and lunches. Have a great week!

Oh boy, it looks like you have your work cut out for you. That's a lot of lunches to pack. Good for you for walking! I have been unable to get any exercise "back here" in Connecticut. No sidewalks anywhere.
You go, Dynamo! I'm trying to walk too. Some days it's easier than others.
You sure start school early. The kids here have the rest of Aug off. Good Luck on the organization bit--it will help a lot in the long run.
