Need to step it up

Hey Everyone! Happy Easter! I hope you are all having a nice day with all those that are important to you. I’m in charge of Easter dinner this year so I will be getting my “crazy on” in a little while. I thought I would blog in the calm before the storm. I have had a lot of ups and downs this month with the boys being sick so much. I have not taken charge like I really wanted too in March and loose weight. The month is almost over and I can’t believe I’m the same weight I was at the end of February. I loose I gain….I loose I gain. I have been doing this for 10 years it gets so damn frustrating. I could blame my kids and say I’m just exhausted (wich I am) but I could have taken the time to eat right and exercise and I choose not too. I let my excuses get the better of me. If I stay on this road I’m going to just continue to spin in circles. I need to step up my game and start taking care of me. I let myself put myself last. I do it on my own…I know I’m busy but really that is no excuse. I don’t take the time for me. I’m burned out, tired and frazzled, that will never change unless I take a step back and put me first.  So the point I’m trying to make is…I’m going to try my hardest to make a healthy life style my first priority….an hour a day to exercise and let my mind wander before all the choas of the day begins. I really need to take the time to eat better…I deserve some time to actually sit at a table and eat my breakfast, lunch or dinner. Usually with the exception of dinner I’m standing at the counter doing a 100 other things and shoving my kids left overs in my mouth as I multi-task. I’m blogging about this because I want to be held accountable for my actions. I want a fresh start Monday morning with out all my usual excuses getting in the way to hold me back. I’m going to step it up and hopefully will be feeling so much better this time next month. I deserve this!!!

Happy Friday

Hi Everyone,

It has been awhile since I blogged. I guess I’ll start by saying I have weeks where I’m doing great and weeks like this one where I’m not. I hate the babysteps forward and backwards. I wish I could take the momentum I feel when I’m first excited about something and hold on to that feeling so I don’t fail. Last week I hit my first 10 pound total loss then this week I ate probably 1/4 of it back. I’ll know for sure tomorrow.  I thought maybe if I blogged today it would help get me back in the game. My husband and I are going away for the weekend. And I hope to on Monday morning to have left my excuses and negative attitude back at the resort and come home with out them. Well have a great happy healthy weekend.
