Thanks! I've lost over 20 pounds the last two years, so I'm really happy with myself. I'd like to lose another 20 at least to be more in the 'healthy' range, but I'd rather build more muscle and lose fat.
For exercise, I go and jump on the treadmill for 2 miles every day when I get home from work (except Thursday, which is rest day) and do more demanding aerobics on the weekends. As long as I make myself do it as soon as I get home, it gets done. Plus it gives me time to watch Anime during the week, which is a reward for doing it.
The hardest thing about the ESL situation is I have her in a class of 25, so I can't work with her a lot one on one. :( So I'm trying to find some ways to work around that, especially since I'm not testing her on her English. I'm testing her on her math. So I don't want the English (especially the word problems) to hold her back. I'm working with her ESL teacher, but I'm going to try to get creative.
