Motivation: I suspect I should write a whole entry on the subject of motivation.....as my thoughts on this have changed a lot in the past two months. The biggest motivating help, at this point, is Mike. He simply won't let me miss too many days. Mike has NEVER nagged me to work out or look fit and trim, but he takes very seriously the dire warnings of raising our wonderful family without me by his side, and so, he keeps prodding me to "make at least 40 minutes a day a priority," and he even watches kids on his day off so that I can make it to the gym. I've conquered my fear of the fit students at the gym...oh well...when they are MY age we'll see what they look like. ::snort:: The challenge now is to....um....actually do the minutes in chunks of 40 minutes a day instead of 3 really long work out days. ::snort:: I also need to find time to work in strength training, too.

Now I'm sure Mike would say that it's not just raising the kids without you, but wanting to be with YOU that also drives him. ;-) Your man luvs you. LoL

GOOD JOB! We've also been doing a lot of thinking about the future and the fact that we still have a fairly young one here at home... a 4 yo... I wouldn't want to think about not being in his life for health reasons I could have done something about.

You are doing Great!!!! hang in there. With such a great cheerleader I would think that it would be a blessing to you to know that you are blessing him while he blesses you....I think that one could keep going on and on...I hope you get the drift.
