Day Sixty - Where Is Autumn Hiding?
Is Arkansas the only place that Fall is refusing to show up? I'm not joking. It was in the 80s today. I don't know if I have every experienced 84 degree weather at the end of October. I'm not a huge cold weather (although I do like a light snow or two) or hot weather person. I sweat easily (I'm rather large, go figure) so I don't like 100 degree days, or days so cold that I have to wear multiple layers. I like a mild 65-70 degrees. The type of weather that you can wear shorts when it's sunny, but need a light jacket after the sun goes down. So back to my original thoughts, where is Autumn? Why is it delayed?
We decided to give Fall a little encouragement. We put out a few fun Fall decorations today. A scarecrow we found at Walmart as well as a mum and pumpkins. E loved setting it out and B just liked trying to eat the grass and mulch. It was fun taking the pictures and seeing both of their personalities coming out in them.
Sadly, as hard as we try we cannot change the seasons. Unlike the season, I have direct control over my weight. I know there many contributing factors that can impact the control that I have. Still, if I don't want to be overweight any more I can change it (like I am currently doing). I cannot make the seasons change, but I can make a life change. You can too. Just set a goal and then go for it. Find friends or family, strangers even, to hold you accountable. I'll tell you what, if you really want to do this, just tell me. Comment on this post or hit me up on Facebook or Twitter. We'll link through myfitnesspal, and I will hold you accountable. Please, I don't want this to only be about me. Join me as I lose my butter half.
Overall for the weekend my intake was good. Two workouts, plus I mowed yesterday. I'm feeling pretty great!
