STALL

So I am in the midst of a weight loss stall. I am super psyched about the 65lbs I have lost, but it has been since the beginning of December since I have lost anything. Normally I could blame the Holidays on a weight gain, but not this time. I did not gain anything, which is awesome, but haven't lost anything either. It boggles my mind, based on the daily intake of food I consume, I should be losing, not maintaining. Ultimately I want to lose about 40 more lbs......... So I am thinking I need to add some more physical activity to the mix. I use to work out all the time, but my gym closed down and then I really never maintained the discipline I had to keeping working out. The craziest thing is that I dearly mess it. I LOVE to workout. I figure the more I sweat, the better the workout!!! I have been researching gyms in my area and have not found anything that fits my needs. Of course my needs include child care, and only 2 local gyms offer it. One is quite a distant and the other is just not for me. So Reid and I have decided to purchase an elliptical machine. I am hoping to be disciplined enough to get my butt on it 5 days a week. I would love to incorporate jogging in with it, but not until the weather is nicer. We'll see what happens. I need to kick this stall's butt!!!!!!

Been having a good week, the inner kid in me came out yesterday and the kids and I played in the snow. we sledded and built snow cakes, with decorations and all. It was lots of fun, I could've kept playing, but after awhile they were ready for Grandma's fireplace and hot cocoa. Reid has been working like a dog, and we are excited to have him home for a few nights. Just hoping his days off do not turn into him working like they often do. We are hoping to do some sledding and ice skating this coming weekend. Well I am off to my protein ice cream.....
