Great Support-Figuring it all out!

I didn't get to weigh-in this weekend. This weekend was HECTIC!!

Revamping things. Hubby is going to be staying home for the baby's morning feeding, so I can get a workout in before he goes to work:D So I can FINALLY start taking care of myself. I've been getting frustrated because I couldn't find the time to exercise.  I'm always prepping dinner, making important phone calls, doing housework during nap time and in the morning I'm trying to juggle getting the boys off to school, nursing the baby, getting the girls breakfast, and a million other things.  I CAN DO THIS!! I REALLY need to do this!!Why didn't I ask my husband for help sooner?  He's always so helpful and good to me:)I can't wait to see where I'm at 6 months from now. I'm going to do Turbo Jam in the morning. I am NOT a morning person. This is going to be interesting.  Me, waking up at 6 am to exercise.   Blah! But this is the only way I can see that I will succeed at losing weight.  I can't keep complaining about not being able to work out and not take my husband up on his offer to help me. That would be just dumb.  I was going to do the C25K, but I don't think my body is ready for it just yet.   I will definitely be doing it at some point though.  I've never been enthusiastic about running, but I like a challenge;)  Off to bed so I can get a decent amount of sleep. 

P90X-Not happening.....

Sometime in the future

Well, hubby and I took the test last night to see if we were capable of being able to handle P90X. MAJOR FAIL. I can't do a proper pull up to save my life.  WE ARE SO OUT OF SHAPE.  I must admit I'm a little sad that I won't be able to start it YET.  Instead, we will be doing P90.   Its basically less intense but you should still get phenomenal results. Waiting for hubby's exercise mat to be delivered(most likely by Friday) then we will get started.

I'm so eager to work out, that I may just do EA Active in the mean time. Its not a "game" at all. It really pushes you and I love that. If I'm not drenched in sweat, then I don't consider it a workout. I guess most of us in weight loss land feel that way, right?I have some housework to do, but my body hasn't recovered from the weekend yet.  If I don't get it done, its just gonna bother me and I won't be able to relax.  Yeah, I'm a little anal when its comes to a dirty house. Hope you all had an uneventful Monday!

Weigh-In, Etc. Etc.

Well last week was an extremely long and stressful week. If you have in-laws, you know how much of a burden they can be when they come to visit for an entire week. All I can say is that I'm soooooooooo glad my fil has gone back home to Louisiana!! For the most part, his visiting was nice but on the other hand, there were many moments where he could have been murdered lol. Anyway, I'm definitely glad to be back to normal!!

Stepped on the scale bright and early before my 6 am workout and I was VERY thrilled to see 153.4!!!!!!! I didn't sleep very well at all last week and I only managed to get in THREE freakin' workouts(boy was I pissed about that). But it seems that I gave it my all during those workouts and I got unexpected results on the scale. I think keeping up with my water intake and eating the right foods obviously helped:) It would be soooooooo awesome to be in the 140s next week but I don't know if I can pull off another 3lbs. weight loss unless I REALLY kick it up a notch this week. It would be great if I had a punching bag in my "gym" area of the basement. There is something about punching, jabbing, and kicking that brings out the most intensity in me. I am going to have to do some shopping around for one of those stand alone types of punching bags. It would be a great addition to my equipment. Well, motherhood calls as I need to get some fuel in my system before the little ones wake up (can't believe its 8 am and they're still sleeping!!!!!). Have a great week ya'll!!!

Started Over:)

I promised myself something and I actually did it. I got out of the bed(slowly)at 5:50 am, weighed in and went down to the basement and had a great workout. I stepped on to the Wii Fit scale and I'm 179.2 lbs. I am so positive on my outlook for the future and looking HOT this summer. I'm sick of seeing cute clothes on hangers that I can't fit into. I put away all of my maternity clothing so I won't be tempted to just throw it back on at some point. I plan to get all of that washed up and sold on ebay. With four kids, we are sooooooo at our limit. Its time to put my health first and watch my babies grow now:) I'm so sore right now that my legs feel as if I have weights on them and I'm walking in slow motion. I think one of the things I definitely need to work on is getting to bed a little earlier. I didn't get to sleep until midnight. So you can imagine how I was feeling this morning when the alarm clock was going off. Its all most 8am so I need to get some breakfast in my tummy and get the little one to the bus stop. I'll be weighing in weekly on Mondays. Have a great week everyone and workout hard;)
