I am still here...

I have such a hard time finding the time to blog right now, I am sorry.  I am still here and still on my weightloss journey.  The past month has been sort of rough.  I am following a few friends advice, one of them always says 'Do your best and forget the rest'.  The other says 'Just eat healthy 80% of the time, and you'll be fine'.  My eating has been fairly good, Sure I have my moments when I cave in to temptation, like the party last Friday night, I ate 2 cupcakes!!!  But, in the past I would have eaten the whole batch, hidden the evidence, baked a new batch and ate 6 of them too. 
The area that I am struggling with is exercise....   I have lot's of excuses.  Wanna hear a few?  Well, you see, Frodo started school and we used to take our family walks around 815 and didnt get home till after 9.  I want Frodo to have some down time and be in bed at 9.  And then you see, it gets dark earlier now.  When the hubby gets home from work around 630, we have dinner by 7 then you want the food to settle before walking so you're looking at 730 or 8 and the sun is already going down.  My hood has limited street lamps and pushing a stroller in the dark, crashing into huge cracks in the sidewalk is not fun for me or Sunshine.   And then.....  well you get the picture. 
So, I really need to step up my game.  I need some new motivation like my own Harvey from Celebrity Fit Club, or a workout buddy, a babysitter, a rich person who could sponser a gym membership....  LOL, any of those would be great! 
So, anyway that's my story and I hope to have more successes to share soon!   Thanks for hanging in there with me.
