6 month plan

Maybe it should be a nine month plan? I'm not pregnant, but was able to plan, save, and grow for this amount of time before. Seems like I should be able to do it again.

Here it goes...

1. Financial Responsibility Stephen and I are taking Conor sized hops and stomps towards total financial independence. We need to avoid Target and Walmart at all costs! We spend so much on household cleaning products and items, it seems ridiculous.

2. Eating Healthy, Well, and Cheaply. I am starting Weight Watchers tomorrow with a goal to lose 15-25 pounds in 6 months. To do this, I want to take back the reigns of cooking and get back to the veggies I love and the grilled meats Stephen loves. We are dedicated to stopping the vicious take-out cycle. Our stomachs and wallets need the break. I am down 6 pounds (finally) from January, but I am still not pre-pregnancy. I am tired of starting and failing. Stephen is with me on this one. Crazy what a little BMI calculation will do.

3. JUST SAY NO!!!!! I am tired, stressed, and cannot handle much more. Taking care of 3 boys, 1 dog, 2 cats, cooking, cleaning, full-time school with 2-3 clinical days per week, part-time work, busting it on the treadmill or bike path, and job hunting is enough for most anyone.

3 things, 6 months, 2 people...we can do this. I need an Obey poster made.
