Soar Into Shape

Day 1 of the program, so far so good, I have my calories entered for my breakfast. I will be making up a calender for myself with all the classes I want to go to, along with the other classes that I had already been going to. I need to make up a plan on what excercises I will be doing at home, that won't mesh with what we do at the gym, as we are only allowed so many points per day for certain things. I am still trying to figure it all out, it is a little confusing.
I know we get 10 points for the aerobics classes the gym offers, but I don't know if we can only do 1 a day or if we are allowed points for more then one a day, for example there are 2 classes I would love to go to on Monday Mornings.
So far the plan is:
Tues Night Pilates
Wed Night Body Sculpt
Thurs Night Hard Core Abs
Sat Mor Body Sculpt
For Monday I will either be doing Morning Insanity boot camp, or body sculpt, or nigh time spin.
I think it will take me a little while to figure this all out, but as long as I get my calories, get my workouts in, and keep track I should be good to go while I figure it out.
So that is my update for today so far.
On another note, Valorie slept through the night again last night and is still sleeping, I am shocked. I really hope this will be her new normal.
Off to work out.

A new day

So this is my first time ever blogging. I have a few friends that do so and it has been fun to keep up with them. I had a hard time coming up with a name, but life is a journey so why not.
So as you all know I am a wife to Shawn, we have been married for 11 almost 12 years. We have 3 Beautiful, Healthy little girls. I would love to have another child, but we are leaving that in God's hands to decide. I am a Christian, a true believer and follower of Jesus Christ. The most important job I have is to raise my children to know and love the Lord. I want to know that they will be in Heaven with me when it is their time. I had been struggling with this task, but I knew what I was doing was working when in November of 2010 My oldest Accepted Jesus as her Savior, and into her life. What an exciting day.
We are living in North Dakota right now. I am hoping that Shawn will be able to get stationed back in Florida, a chance may be coming up, and I am praying that we get it. I really like it here, the area is Beautiful, the friends I have made are awesome, it is safe, and really just a nice place, but it is too far from any of my family, and I am not crazy about the below zero temps for months at a time either.
I am starting a program on base next week called Soar Into Shape, I am so excited about it. I will be doing it with a few friends I made at Bible study, and some of my other friends are on different teams. I am looking forward to seeing if I can stick with it, and reach my goal the end of April when the program ends. I really want to feel good in shorts this summer and not uncomfortable. Day 1 will be on Monday Feb 28. On Tuesday I will be able to see my starting point and set my goal.
