Getting
... Healthy ...

I have been diagnosed with insulin resistance and PCOS. This makes it difficult to lose weight, but I am trying my best to get healthy again. Unfortunately, I am also gluten intolerant and have allergies to several other foods - tomatoes and peppers. I hope that 2009 is FINALLY the year that I get healthy. You can read my plans for healthier living in this post. My eating plan will be from The Insulin Resistance Diet book. It will include no added sugar and a focus on whole foods. I have a sugar addiction so this will be tough at first! Other books that I will be following include The 3-Hour Diet, the Superfoods books and The 12 Best Foods Cookbook.

Starting weight: 1/4/09 - 161.6 lbs.

... Do you need to keep track of rebates? ...

I was sent some information by email about a program that can help you keep track of the rebates that you submit for each month. It is called FYI and you can view a video of some of its features here. The website has lots of information about this rebate tracking and home inventory software which currently retails for only $7.97! Once you view the video, you'll know exactly how to use the software to keep track of those rebates.

The FYI program also has modules to track vehicles, furniture, books, software, videos, audios and more.  They're variations of the inventory module. Most insurance companies recommend that we keep a listing of our appliances and electronics as well as information about ALL of the items in our home in the case of burglary or fire. This program will allow you to keep all of this information in one place where it can also be easily modified as you buy and sell items in your home.

Here are some of the other features of the program as outlined by its creator, Mr. Fuller.

SORT & SEARCH: Most columns can be sorted in ascending order by clicking the column
 header once, and in descending order by clicking the column header a second
 time.  Then the column can be searched by typing any part of what you
 are looking for.  NOTE: Column headers ending with [x] are not sortable.
 
 To sort more than one column, hold the control key while clicking the
 2nd, 3rd, etc. column headers.
 
OTHER SEARCHES: Other searches available are Search Any Column(s) and
 Search All Columns.  These are more self explanatory.
 
EVENTS: Events can be added to library and inventory items, rebates, coupons and people.
 They can then be viewed in chronological order on the Event Log.  The Event Log
 can be sorted and searched, as mentioned above in SORT & SEARCH.
 
TODO's: Events with a Date Due filled in will show up in the ToDo List.  They
 are sorted by Date Due.  They stay there until the Date Done is entered,
 at which time they can be viewed as completed on the Event Log.
 
LASTLY: This program is best viewed at a screen resolution of 1024x768 or greater.
So, if you are looking for an inexpensive program to use to keep track of items in your home or rebates that you submit throughout the year, check out FYI!

... My Schedules ...



:: My Daily Schedule::

5:30am - up and exercise
6:00am - get kids up
7:30am - kids to school
8-9am - errands/homekeeping
9-Noon - work
Noon - Lunch/homekeeping
1-2:30pm - finish up work, if needed

The afternoons vary depending upon our evening schedules, but they are generally spent helping the kids with their homework, exercising several afternoons a week, getting dinner ready, homekeeping, etc.

6pm - dinner & clean kitchen
7pm - final email check for work

The rest of the evening is spent straightening the house for the next day, finishing up homework with the kids, and relaxing by the TV or with a good book! I need to make some time for my hobbies, but I'm really enjoying reading books right now!

Housekeeping
:: Schedule::

I use the Motivated Moms Planner for my daily schedule. My children have weekend chores which really helps me a LOT! I do laundry as it fills the sorter and straighten the house every morning and evening.

:: Exercise Plan ::
My basic plan is 30 minutes of cardio daily and strength training 4 days weekly. I also hope to do yoga 1-2 times weekly.
