45 and counting! (261 days 'til the big 4-0)

Well ladies and gents, here we are at the beginning of another month.  Five months have passed since I began my wellness journey, and I am happy to share that today marks 45 pounds lost!  I couldn't do it without the support and encouragement of a handful of coworkers, a few close friends, my amazing children, my incredible boyfriend, and, believe it or not, the inspiration of the trainers and contestants of  this season's The Biggest Loser.  Making the time to work in the exercise is by far my biggest challenge. I know, I know, Dolvett and Bob... "No excuses".  However, being a single mom, working full-time, and raising two very socially active teenage girls does not leave much "me" time.  Trying to balance a home life with my girls, with my man, and still take care of business is a juggling act in and of itself.  If I go to the gym during the times that are free in my schedule (5 a.m. or 9 p.m.) then I am not getting enough sleep.  So what's a girl to do?  This is not a rhetorical question.  Some helpful time-management/prioritization advice would be greatly appreciated.  I definitely need to figure out how to get a handle on that.  I keep imagining how much further along I could have progressed at this point, if I was more disciplined with my exercise, but I am not letting it get me down.  If only my feet had the same 176K miles on them that my vehicle does, I would be in GREAT shape!  It would be so helpful to have an elliptical, a recumbent bike, or a treadmill, and a bench with some free weights at home, and I would be good to go!  If anyone has any of these items you're not utilizing, and would be willing to donate, please let me know.  Thanks!  Until next time.....
