First post

Hello! This is rather scary and exciting, but I thought I'd try this blogging thing out. I just want this to be something that my kids can look back on with fondness, others can look at with some curiosity, and perhaps can even be entertaining to myself!
I'm about to start "runners boot camp". I love the feeling I have running, but I'm so impatient to increase my endurance. I have recently lost a lot of weight, but through an extremely strict regimen of very low calorie with medication. Now - I feel a little stranded. My appetite is back with a vengeance, and this weekend I started having an occasional treat....and then today I lost it and ate everything in sight. I just have to figure out where I end up being happy - a normal amount of food, a normal weight, and a normal amount of exercise.
I made a horrible meal tonight. I love looking at blogs and trying to figure out new recipes and meal plans, but this one was for the birds. First bomb in a while. In the end, it made everyone a little gassy. Anoush and Mayis were lying on their tummies doing their "homework" when Anoush farted. Mayis then said "Anoush poopied!" and everyone had a great laugh. Now Mayis keeps saying "Anoush pooped her pants". I'm glad Anoush has a good sense of humour about the whole thing!
