Why?

Something oh so petty has been rattling my brain for days now. Why am I so afraid to go try on a pair of size 8 pants??? My size 10 clothing is super loose on me but I'm just afraid to go there. I feel like if I try them on and I don't fit them or don't like how they look on me, I will end up falling off with my progress:( I feel like a kid going to get a shot at the doctor's office. I just cringe at the thought of putting on those pants and realize that I'm not even close to a size 8. So either I purchase a belt or new clothes. I feel so stupid. When I told my hubby, he said to just try on a pair and get it over with. I'm sure how to get over this little hump of fear because once I decide to take that jump, there's no turning back......

Weigh-In, Etc. Etc.


It feels like I haven't been blogging in a long time. Life is just super busy with three of my four kids in school. I *think* I'm finally adjusting to the new schedules, etc. I've also decided to change my weigh-in day to Wednesday from now on. Well this morning I weighed in at 150.8 lbs!!!! I'm very happy about that:) I'm back on track as far as taking care of me goes and I'm keeping a food diary which I believe is helping me tremendously. I recently started taking this Kettlebell class and I must say I love it!! Its hard as hell but imo, if I'm not in pain, its probably not doing its job. It was the most intense 45 minutes ever. A few of the students were whispering things like "she's(the instructor) insane, I'm not coming back to this class, no way". Well, since I paid for this class, I'm invested now and I think that since it works the core, I really need to stick with it. Of course after having four big babies, my core is most definitely my problem area. Anyway, I just wanted to say that I'm back and that I've missed you guys. I'm going to get caught up on my blog reading by the weekend. I hope everyone has a great hump day and an awesome weekend!!

So inspiring

I'm a big fan of this show as I'm sure most of you all are out in weight loss blog land. There's a woman who lost her family in a car accident. She is the one I will be cheering on the most. She deserves a new start in life. Enjoy!

Weigh-In, Etc. Etc.

This post is going to be relatively short since its a holiday and my little ones want some mommy & daddy time. Well I'm back on track!!FOUR pounds down from last week:) I'm freakin' ecstatic about that. I didn't really know what to think as I saw 151.4...my jaw definitely dropped and I squealed in delight once it set into my mind. I've been running around like crazy getting the kids back-to-school stuff ready. Last week was Malique's(my 7 year old son) info night and this week is my two preschoolers info night. Needless to say I've been sleeping pretty well the last few weeks because I'm constantly on the go. I've been doing the EA Active 30 Day Challenge and I must say it is most certainly a challenge. If you're thinking about getting it, its well worth the investment. Well I hope everyone is enjoying the remainder of the holiday weekend. Have a great week ya'll!!

Still around

I just wanted to post a quickly apology for not updating and checking in. Well, I kind of needed a break. I have three kids getting ready to start school and I pretty much fell off the wagon. I'm human and it happens. I really don't feel bad about it, so I'm not going to sit here and have a pity party. It would be pointless. What's done is done, now its time to move forward. I'm not certain as to when I will weigh in next. Frankly, I'm thinking 2 weeks from now might be a good idea. So that I can get rid of the damage I did over the last couple of weeks lol. Well this is the last week before school starts, so I'm trying to get in as much fun stuff as I possibly can before then. Today I'm thinking a bike ride and then another workout during nap time for mommy. I can't believe that today my baby girl is 11 months old:( I kind of got depressed when hubby informed me that WE are done having children. I have been down right bitchy and I'm not certain how to move on. I know its not fair to him but what about me? Every time I try to "move on" I get 2x more bitchy. Being a woman truly sucks sometimes. Well I'm hoping that by jumping back into my fitness routine, I'll get over the bright idea of having another baby because hubby isn't going for it:( Well I need to get the kids breakfast and continue on with my day. Enjoy your holiday weekend everyone!!
