Motivational Meltdown

Well it has been almost 4 weeks since I started walking on the treadmill and the only thing that I have lost is my motivation.  I've walked one mile for at least 6 out of the 7 days and I don't notice any change in my size.  The scale is my worst enemy right now, because it doesn't believe in change, just can't deal with that. 
On a lighter side, no pun intended, this has been a week of early spring cleaning.  I have to start early because it takes me so long.   Working on the little things like ceiling fans and chandeliers and WOW it's so much brighter in here!  It has been quite awhile since I cleaned some of them. 
Had a great night out with 4 other couples last evening.  Such a laid back time with lots of laughs.  We really don't do that often enough.  I should add that to my resolutions, I think I can get motivated to go out to eat :)

Walking and Winning

Been busy listing some of the DD's name brand clothing on Ebay.  Specifically the ones that still have tags, because there is no way I'm going to be able to get much money for them at my garage sale.   The kicker is the shipping though.  Asking a starting bid of $2.50 for an American Eagle top still might not sell because shipping will be $5.00.  But dang they cost enough at the store! 
Started walking one mile on the treadmill daily (at least 6 days a week).  I hope to start increasing every 2 weeks.  I am being realistic in knowing that I won't lose my tummy before vacation, but I'll feel better about myself.  Even my husband has been walking daily since it has arrived.  (you remember, the one that I won at a tweet party!).

Won some great products this week on twitter and facebook.  Tubes of cream from Udderly Smooth http://www.uddercream.com/   and a sampler box of hot chocolate for the Keurig from Green Mountain Coffee https://www.facebook.com/?sk=nf#!/GreenMountainCoffee

Time to get back to the housework, the dryer just called me ;)
