Running and more exercise

I just started week 3 of the running plan and it is going really well!  I am impressed with the runnning and how do-able it has been.  The challenge is still getting out the door but planning to do it during preschool has helped a ton because it is just one less kid to pay attention to while I am running.

Mike and I have also started to exercise in the evenings.  I am really getting on this exercise train.  I love the feeling after I am done a work out and I feel that even if i don't lose weight, I am doing something good for my body.

Weight loss...ugh...it isn't happening very well.  The weekends kill me but every choice that is better is one more step to being healthy...skinny...in better shape?  

Sorry I just struggled with what word I wanted to describe my ultimate goal.  As I was typing I realized that I am healthy and skinny ...just didn't feel right.

I want to fit in my clothes well and like what I see when I look in the mirror.  I don't want to say 'happy' because I hate that word but I want to be content.  I think most of all I want my kids to be active and not struggle with weight.  I am on my way.
