This is what I am going to work on this month

What are your goal for April?

Mine are to keep going in the right direction which is down!!

Currently I am at 194.2 WHOHOO

I am loving my work outs. I am loving that I have hit 2 more goals, and getting close to the next one! I am loving being in the grove and wanting so badly to work out each day and make healthily choices in the kitchen!!

I am going to do it by May 11th I will be down another 10lbs. 6 weeks. I can do it.

I will push a little harder. I will love my body a little more. I will drink more water. I will be the lowest weight I have been in a very long time :)

Sometimes you need a lift

So I just read this post by another blogger and I loved it. I have been going though a stressful time, just things adding up and not feeling like there is enough time to get them done! I know a lot of people fell that way. It is sometimes hard to kick!

I have not been getting the sleep I need. I have go too much on my plate, when I think it slows down it doesn't. I am going to be grateful for spring break and getting away and spending time with the family. Reconnecting I think is what I need to do.

Not be in the house, be out doing things and having fun together!

I am a strong believer that if Momma ain't happy ain't nobody happy!

I do work out every day. But I need some more quite time in the mornings to get things done, it is when I am better able to think and have a clear head. I need to reprogram myself slowly to get up earlier! It's happening slowly!

My goal is to be up by 645-700 and get down to my work out. Then spend a few minutes getting things on the computer cleared up that may have to be done for my many different volunteer positions! Then do breakfast and start with laundry and baking and cleaning for the day! The more I can get done before 830 in the morning when the kids come down for breakfast the better my days seem to flow. I know this and I love this, but I forget sometimes how good it feels and feel I need more sleep or my bed is just to comfy. Keep the reminder in my head, in my head that I will be better off for getting things done earlier and having that peaceful time in the mornings!!

I will post another weight in, in 2 weeks. I have needed to take a break from the numbers and want to see them bigger than 1 at a time, even though I am happy with that. I am doing well, my clothes are feeling looser which is nice, I am becoming more and more comfortable in my own skin.

Mothers day is coming!! 53 more days I am doing my 6 work outs a week and defiantly feel it when I don't do them 1st thing. I totally have a harder time concentrating in the day or feeling motivated to get things done!

My water intake is doing great.

my chocolate intake is down to almost none

my running ok 8 min walk 5 run 8 in the last couple days. Friday is a run for 20....makes me nervous that one.

Eating healthy is doing great 90%. The other 10% I just need a break and allow myself something not so good, but still ok!

Have a great night, I am going to sleep so I can be up by 715 tomorrow to get to 7 by next week!

Another weigh in!

Week 1 216.4

Week 10 204.4

Week 11 202 -2.4 lbs!

Week 12 201 -1.0 lbs

Well getting there slowly but surely!!

So how have things been going out there is cyper-world?

I have been very busy with the kids and the volunteering that I do. I have been looking for yummy recipes over the last few weeks. I have been working out and have started doing Zumba on the wii. It's fun and my 3 year old loves it. We dance away and it burns some good calories.

I am excited about this week and am going to work my butt off.

Week 1 216.4

Week 10 204.4

Week 11 202 -2.4 lbs!

Whohoo

Getting there by next weigh in I REALLY hope to be at my next goal. Going to work my butt off and try out my newest WII game in hopes of burning those calories. I got this instead of my last goal hit, changed it up:). I wasn't able to get to the movies with the girls, so I got a new wii game :) Zumba!! Hopes it's a good one!

So, I totally want a new work out shirt!!! And I can't wait to get one, so I will get it in the next week I hope!! Ok I will. right positive thinking.

So I was reading this article on Body image. It was really interesting and I recommend checking it out!

The things we do, the people we judge, the reasons why we do these things and think it's ok is beyond me. I can't say I am perfect, at not judging others, I try, but there are times. However I am getting a lot better, and know that everyone is unique and have their beauty. Inside and out!

I am not losing weight for anyone but me. I am doing something about being more healthy and teaching my children good habits so they have a good chance in life! I am not not allowing things in our home, I am allowing cake and fun foods, but it's not every day. I am allowing each to pick out what they want to wear and how they do things...Especially my daughter who is soooo the opposite of me and the things she wears I can't say I would have ever worn, but she is unique and so beautiful inside and out. My boys don't really care too much, but they do have their favourite colours! I teach them that everyone is unique and beautiful. My husband spends a lot of time with the kids and he spends time with our daughter. He tells her she is beautiful and fun and loving all the time and you can tell how much that affects her. It's amazing how dads can do the same things mom does, but it sinks in and is so good. done rambling now :)

Good luck to all and to all a good night!!
