I was able to find this portrait of Adam, Frankie, and Glen. What sweet little boys.
That was random, right? This is Hillary, of course. Anyway, I need to post so that you guys can all keep me accountable for my health goals. I really don’t have weight loss goals because I don’t have a scale to track my progress. I don’t have a scale because I would weigh myself obsessively like I did while we were visiting in Colorado. How much do I weigh before breakfast? After peeing? While exhaling all the air in my body and almost passing out? See, I get tremendously ridiculous when there is a scale around. So, the new method for me is this: if my pants are too tight, then I’m gaining weight. Pretty scientific, right? Anyway, all this jabber to say that my health goal is to get myself back on my Swank Diet. That’s the one for people with MS. It is not a weight-loss diet, just a be healthier and maybe get the feeling back in your hands diet. So, this is finals week and I’m not going to start it right now. I’m certainly not going to get through my finals without a little super-sized brain food. That said, as of next Monday, I have to be back on my diet. I’ll go Lindsey style and give you updates. Wish me luck, because I’m going to need it! I love to eat filthy, greasy food and I won’t be able to anymore.
Also, I’ve heard tell of more Parmenters wanting to participate on this blog. Please, please do! My e-mail is dirtyecua@yahoo.com and I can give you all the passwords you need or Britney can, too, if she hasn’t already. Spice up our lives and this blog with your input!
So, my yoga meltdown video is what I do for exercise (other than always running after Darbenstien) and the Swank Diet will be my new lifestyle as of next week. Anyone else have anything going on?

I am NOT having a good week dieting. I think I started eating company food and didn't want to stop. The other problem I am having is that I don't ever have the time to sit down and eat lunch or fix myself anything really healthy. I am always able to make sure that Montanna gets a good healthy lunch, but then Eden is either hungry or not wanting to be put down around that time and so I end up snacking all day long. This wouldn't be a bad thing, but I definitely haven't been keeping track of calories or the quality of my snacks. The week is almost over and the weekend is almost here and so I think I am going to have a disappointment this coming week. Something is going to have to change. Suggestions are welcome.
ReplyDeleteAs for the Swank Diet. I want to know more about it. I know you told us a little while you were here, but let us know what you are eating to stay healthy. If it is good enough to help with MS symptoms it is probably healthy for all of us. Maybe I'll give it a try.
As soon as I am given the ok to work out (my Doctor's appointment is Monday, I am going to try to start doing the 30 day shred again and take walks and possibly get on the treadmill. Basically, I am going to do whatever I can while still taking care of the girls. Walks are probably the easiest because I have both of them in check and they are reasonably pleasant and happy being outside in the fresh air. Anyway, this is getting long. Good night! We miss you guys!
