Father's Day Challenge: Week Three Report

I am a bit behind in reporting.  Have I been too busy?  Well, yes, but I was also afraid to step on the scale! :)  

Life happens sometimes like visiting family and baking daughters. The diet and exercise plan went out the window.  At those times it is hard to post about it.  I don't want to admit that I give in to my flesh.  I don't want to admit that I do that which I don't want to do.  Oh, I am weak.

Now, I didn't go totally over board and eat three of my daughters' cupcakes in one day.  Well, okay, yes I did.  But I also tried to keep other parts of my goal.  Does it make it better that I wasn't as bad as I really wanted to be?  Yeah, probably not. 

Well, either way, I determined to give my all this week.  I am not subbing anymore of course since public school is out.  We are finishing up our last two weeks of 7th, 4th and 1st grade here so I have a little more time to devote to exercise.  

In two days, I have biked 30 miles and walked 3.5.  I have also worked out with weights each day.  I weighed this morning and I was down 2 more pounds for a three week loss of 12 pounds.  So I am nearly half way to my goal of 25 pounds lost.  With only 12 days left, I am trying to make the most of everyday!

Thanks again for keeping me in your prayers.  

Can't really have a post without showing my other two sweet girls, so here is what the younger two were doing during the baking.
They were playing Wii. :)

I also missed getting a picture of Aunt Leah's birthday cake but the girls really had fun making it even if they were late. It looked like this one only the candy was Reese's Pieces and a white bow.
