One week down and 2 more to go....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This has been a fairly good week! This is also Day 10 of my Suddenly Slim Program.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Most days I have been feeling great. I have had some sinus issues, which starting Monday has effected my eyes. I did really well with the weekly challenge of reading 10+ minutes a day. I finished a book. That challenge was easy for me as I like to read. I also did fair with my own weekly challenge, not great but okay. I was a bit late a few days, but got the workout done. Saturday was so crazy with getting 6 of us up ready and out the door by 8, and staying busy until 5pm that I didn't fit a workout in. I knew it would be.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong>Observations from week 1:</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
*My daughter loves to skip around me during the warmup.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
*I can balance the whole 15 second stretch at the end on my toes!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
*I have moved up to 10 pound weights for some of the exercises.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
*My kids have learned not to ask questions while I'm counting reps.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and finally,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
*45 seconds of intense cardio goes by really quick if your husband sings, "She's a maniac" during the exercise!! Though it is hard while you are laughing!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong>The challenge for the group this week is:</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Have a 10-minute conversation with a friend or your spouse.<br />
<br />
<strong>My challenge for the week is:</strong><br />
<br />
Read another book!<br />
<br />
I forgot to tell you my goal for myself for the end of the 21 days.<br />
<br />
<strong><em>I will do the plank for 30 seconds or more.</em></strong><br />
(I started out barely able to do 5-10 seconds. I believe I'm up to at least 20!)<br />
<br />
My measurements are "moving," most in the right direction, especially in my middle section.<br />
My weight is down by 10 pounds since I started the Suddenly Slim 1/30!<br />

<div align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.dustinmaherfitness.com/" target="_blank">Dustin</a> has given us a list of "rules" in order to earn points for doing good (or positive) things and losing points for doing bad (or negative) things. Obviously, the goal is to do positive things to help ourselves immprove our health, have more energy, be a healthy example to our children, and make new friends in the process. As the challenge progresses, I'll share more about the points I'm earning and/or losing. I shouldn't lose too many since I don't drink soda, don't skip breakfast, and I very, very rarely eat out!</div>
<div align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" style="text-align: center;">
I will be posting at least once a week to let you know how I am doing.</div>
<div align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<strong>I have set a daily goal for this week:</strong></div>
<div align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<em><strong>I will do my scheduled workout each day before noon.</strong></em><br />
<br />
<strong>Our group daily goal for this week is:</strong><br />
<br />
<strong><em>Read at least 10 minutes of something you like.</em></strong></div>
<div align="center" style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="center" style="text-align: center;">
I have made out a calendar with the workouts list on it. I will be splitting the workout and doing strength one day, cardio/core the next, Monday through Saturday, and taking Sunday as a day of rest.</div>
<div align="center" style="text-align: center;">
Saturday will be the hardest day for me to stick to my goal, as my kids have basketball and cheering that day.<br />
<br />
Keeping a food journal is important and I will be sharing what I am eating with you. <br />
A couple weeks ago I won the Suddenly Slim 30 day program from First Fitness. I started this Monday, so I will not be following the eating plan for this challenge this time around. The foods that I eat are going to be based on the Suddenly Slim Program, and will include lots of veggies!<br />

<br />
Here's a photo taking last summer. I'm not in front of the camera very often (usually the one behind it)! I was probably about 10-15 pounds lighter in the photo that I am starting today. <br />
All that is changing and I'm excited to share it with you!<br />

The 21 day Mommy Blogger Weight Loss Challenge.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I need to lose weight.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I need to lose at least 100 pounds.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have joined with several other mom bloggers to do Dustin Maher's <a href="http://www.fitmomsforlife.com/" target="_blank">Fit Mom's for Life</a> program.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The official start date is February 1st.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have started with the workout, doing strength training on one day and cardio/core work the next, with a warm up and stretching each day. I will take one day off per week for rest.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So far I have done 2 days of strength and 1 day of cardio/core. I was pretty sore after the first day, but it was definately a good sore. I felt muscles in places that I hadn't worked in awhile!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On top of this, I have challenged myself to not get on the computer until my daily workout is done. My kids know about this and I'm sure they will hold me to it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will be blogging as I go along this journey as will several other bloggers. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will have a link for you shortly, if you are interesting in the program.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Next week, I will post a photo of me taken this past summer as a beginning photo.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span id="yui_3_2_0_1_13262084405195163">Happy Tuesday! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This week I thought I would give
some background information. Tiny Tillia was started by Tiffany Lerman (a mom
of 2), who wanted to have high quality, fun items for her children...she was not
finding what she wanted in the stores. The Tiny Tillia characters were inspired
by members of her family. Tiffany's mom is author/actress Jackie Collins.
Speaking of celebs, here are just a few who use Tiny Tillia for
their children: Laila Ali (World Championship Athlete), Elizabeth Hasselbeck
(TV star) and Minnie Driver (Movie Actress).</div>
<div align="center">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span id="yui_3_2_0_1_13262084405195157">Check out the 3 piece diaper bags in Blue
Florette and Pink Tulip. The wonderful thing about this bag is that when you
have your child potty-trained, it converts into an everyday tote. On sale for
$34.99 until January 30th.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

</div><div align="center"><a href="http://www.elsiemarley.com/kcwc-fall-2011.html">Kids Clothes Week Challenge</a> is coming up October 10- 17th.</div><div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center">From the Elsie Marley blog:</div><div align="center">"It's time again for another edition of KCWC: kids clothes week challenge. KCWC is a twice-annual event where I challenge you to commit to sew children's clothes for an hour each day for 7 days. Fall is coming (at least in these parts) and my kids could use some cozy pants and sweaters--and pretty soon we'll need hats and mittens too! All that sewing is a little overwhelming, but I am always amazed at how much I get done by putting in a bit of time every day."</div><div align="center"><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This past weekend we celebrated my son's 12th birthday with a cookout on Saturday (although he won't be 12 until later this month).

</div><div style="text-align: center;">3. Measure the circumference of the brownie and cut squares that size. ie. my brownies were 2 1/2 inches wide, so I cut squares 2 1/2 by 2 1/2.
