Oh that's right, I was too busy eating pizza at 3 a.m. and trying to figure out which faternity had the cutest guys. There was no thinking about my health and what all the eating, drinking, and smoking (yes I was a smoker...I quit for good when I got pregnant with my daughter Leah) was doing to my body. I realize now that if I had made healthy eating and exercise a part of my life back then it wouldn't be such a challenge to make those changes now. Sigh!

Seriously, I don't know how people do it. Yesterday it was really hard to fit in my 45 minutes of physical activity. I left the house at 8:45 for Kendall's gym class, then headed up to school, got my hair done, cooked/ate dinner, cleaned up dinner and suddenly it was 7:30. Luckily my family wanted to go for a walk, so I got 20 minutes in. Then it was bedtime for the girls, and I just had to watch a certain show about dancing, and suddenly it was 10:00.

Jennie, this is amazing that you're doing this! I'm sure you'll find ways to get your physical activity in and it sounds like you've found a way to include your family in it too! See you in a few weeks...way too soon but it will be great to see you! GOOD LUCK!!!

Hey girl, I was so proud to see you on TV. I hear you when it comes to putting yourself last. You've got so much on your plate! I wish I could say that it gets better, but I guess some of it is the self-sacrificing part of being a teacher and a mom. So, who do you think Jillian will choose in Bachelorette?? Or is that one reality show your don't follow. I'm anxious to catch up after our summer break. I'm going to try VERY hard not to get as stressed this year. We need to remind each other that less is more.
