Pressing In and Pressing On

Ok, today is the 21st and I got on the scales yesterday but read it in kilograms cause I was at work - didn't have time to really configure what that meant and so today came in and did it again - same number - really didn't much like the number I saw but decided to figure out what that number meant and am AMAZED to see that I have lost 1.7 pounds!! Praise the Lord!
I have failed to take my inches again, but realized as I was writing this that I am not supposed to until the 7th of April anyway - so WHEW!! Reason being I put on pants I wore this time last year and have more than just a "little muffin top".  They look spray painted on - and for sure I won't be wearing them any time soon with the t-shirt I wore them with last year.  But, the time is coming. 
As a family we have become more active.  I am excited about that.  We go for walks together some on Sundays - play kickball in the front yard (although I FREELY admit I am designated pitcher) - and walk during baseball practice, etc. 
I am really really really glad for all of this.  I want our kids to understand that exercise is a "way of life" not just "something you do because you ended up fat".  I know we are getting a little bit of a later start on this whole outdoors thing - but slowly and surely it is coming along.
I don't really have much to share today.  Prayers going out to my friends and families with so much on their plates right now.
More soon!
