I haven't been very strict lately. We've had a lot going on and I let my healthy habits slide. I am, however, maintaining my weight. We picked my stepson up from the airport yesterday. His mother and his grandmother, who they lived with for the last year, let him eat whatever he wants and he spends way too much time on the computer or video games. He is 7 years old, 49" tall, and 87 lbs. I'm sick about it. When he left us at the end of last summer, he was 47" tall and 54 lbs. He has a stocky and muscular frame like his father, but this is beyond reason. I worry that he is going to have a lot of serious health problems because he always loses weight with us over the summer and gains twice as much back with her EVERY year. We started this morning with eggs, apple/oj straight from the Jack LaLane juicer (eternal thanks to a co-worker) and some homemade banana bread. We're going to spend the next 2 days at Kalahari Waterpark where my hubby and I work. I just got a new pair of tennis shoes so I'm hoping that this summer will instill some healthy habits that he'll carry for at least part of his time back with his mother. If you are the praying sort, please remember us!
