Exercise Sucks

Hi-
My name is Amy.  I am a 38 year old women who lives in VERY Northern California.  I am married, have 3 step children (one lives with us) and 6 (yes 6) dogs, 1 cat and 2 horses.  I don't work right now thanks to the economy so I have no time excuse on why I don't exercise.  I live in a beautiful part of the country.  It is sunny here 350 days a year.  I have horses to ride and dogs to walk.  Why don't I? Because I don't feel like it.  That's why.  I have a good friend that had posted on a blog while she dieted and she said it kept her accountable.  I thought I would give this a try.  But I am going to get real.  I am 5'4" and weigh as of today 171.6 lbs.  I usually stick with something for about 2 weeks then find every excuse in the world - and there are a lot of them - to quit.  My sister is going to help me though this weight loss thing too.  She is doing great doing it the way the doctors say to...change your lifestyle.  But lets get real...I'm not buying anymore clothes, even exercise gear, until I can fit into the rest of the stuff in my drawer.  That means when I put on my exercise bra yesterday (I have healthy girls) it was kind snug and they were overflowing the sides.  It did its job though and I wasn't kissing them while running in place.  When I took it off however, wow the intends from how tight it was - ick.  My workout is the Wii Active.  I am on day 2.  Yesterday like I said, really sucked.  Today wasn't as bad.  My eating though not so good.  I LOVE Bread!  I also love to bake.  Cookies, cakes, anything with sugar.
So, this is going to log my journey through doing something I won't be good at.  I think a lot of people, women in general are really rough on themselves about what we should look like and what we should eat.  Well, Let's get real.  I am not going to run a marathon or a triathalon.  Why?  Because I don't want to.  Not going to climb Everest either.  I want to look in the mirror and be ok with what I see.  I want to try on clothes and not have to take 3 sizes in with me.  The one I want to be in, the one that will fit when I lose 5 lbs and the one I should be wearing but don't want to admit it. So come along on my journey and get to know me as I do.  I might post pictures of my progress but that will be a huge step if I do.  Good Luck to us all!!!
