Just putting this out there

I have a big drive to accomplish something for myself and my family. I want to be able to help support my family financially with one of those inborn easy talents that some people somehow pull out of their hats. I want to find that talent, that easy thing that I have too much of that gives people the money toward a house and a family and school just for the fun of going to school without my darling husband having to carry all the weight. Somehow I want that and I feel like step one is achieving my health goals so that I would suddenly have ll that time to find it and do it, but now I realize that good health will always cost me that time and that as soon as I let that go there will be no success. Not financially, health wise or personally. So what do I do? I invite you to tell me what to do because I won't stop praying and I won't stop working but sometimes people need more than their own thoughts. I could use some advice. Tell me how I can be a decent working stay at home mom and I will make up the fitness part somehow. Is it possible? Is someone out there doing it? Got anything? Please.

Happy New Year! And you know what that means, new goals, which In my case means a few more mini-goals. I want to do a no sugar month for realsies this time. This is tough because today my husband ate four brownies, two cookies, and a handful of chocolate pretzels. He agrees to support me in this goal but we will see how well he can be a hand slapper. We'll I am giving it a try and today is day one accomplished. I was also able to have a no regret day of eating healthy! Yay! I think that's a tough one to achieve when you  are a hormonal pregnant girl with a growing appetite. So day one accomplished! My husband did go out and buy smaller bowls to help us regulate portion sizes better. I think I will wait till the baby is born to regulate much smaller besides using is to measure pasta and rice servings. Carbs are a toughie. Update! I have gained 3 lbs thus far and I am hoping to only gain 5 more to be 180. I also have a small plan worked out for after the baby is born.
Using portion bowls and doing mild weights for month one. Walking and weights month  two and 3. 30 day shred level1 month  four with all three level in the preceding months. I don't know if an hour daily will be plausible for me anymore after this baby but if I could even do it once a week that would be awesome. Oh and I need to stretch more. I forget all the time how good it feels. That's a rough plan for you folks! And my first battle is against sugar. One down you siren of sweetness! Day one....
