Felt horrible. I kept getting dizzy. I think its because I may be getting sick? or maybe I didn't eat enough this morning. I know I'm exhausted. Maybe i'm pmsing? i don't know I just know that I could only run half of what I usually do. I also skipped two days of running.

Is it me? or is this working?


Yesterday I didn't run. I had zero motivation and I think my hormones were on blast because I was MOODY and irritable. So I just didn't run. But the whole day I felt crumby. That feeling of laziness mixed with responsibility?! (do you know what i'm talking about?) Basically you want to just sit around, eat junk food, stay in your PJ's and watch movies all day long. No doing the laundry, or cooking a meal, or even cleaning up after the meal (which my husband sweetly does for me :) This is how you want it to be, but when you are a mother of three and a wife to one, you don't get to have days like this. You have to pick up the toys, do the laundry, cook and feed your kids, pick up your child from school which requires getting out of your PJ's and actually making yourself into a live human. You still have to do your duties as a mother and wife regardless of how you feel! One thing I chose not to do was exercise and I'm wondering if my day was even worse because I didn't?! After I workout, I like to shower and that usually starts my day feeling fresh. I know that exercise is good for you, in many many ways. But can it really have this big of an impact on my mood? I think maybe yes.  This morning started off pretty rough, I felt my patience dwindling down as the kids made messes, and my daughter complaining about how her pants felt. I didn't want to exercise. I didn't want to run. But I put my two down for a nap, and I put on my running shoes. I turned on my media player and cranked up my tunes.  Afterwards I felt better, relieved. You have a sense of accomplishment, you feel good about yourself and I think when you feel good about yourself, you are more positive about the destruction going on around you. So I am gonna keep on. I'm going to keep running. Because my family deserves to have the best me!

On this path

So On this path I shall continue. I know that there are all these ways to lose weight but what i'm doing (for now) is working. I thought I wasn't making any progress because I took some pictures and compared them with older ones and it didn't look like much change. My husband says he see's it, the shrinking and toning, but I must be looking at myself with crossed eyes because nothing seems different. Remember my Calvin Klein dress? It's a button up Khaki dress. I love this dress!!! I wore this dress last summer, it fit perfectly on me then!!! One Sunday I wanted to wear this dress for church and asked my husband to iron it for me. I go to put it on and I couldn't button it past my waistline. I struggled and got it button down towards the middle of my stomach but any further and I was going to lose a few buttons. Anyhow, I thought to myself today "let me try on the dress" and when I did I was able to button all the buttons. NOW, once I start going south past my hips it was a struggle, and I wouldn't say the dress fit, but it does fit BETTER. It seems that I am losing weight around my waistline first. I can tell the my tummy isn't as flabby and my sides aren't as pudgy. So progress is happening. I am getting better at running. I can run a little faster a little further each time. I've been running 2 miles every day. I can finish 2 miles in 30 minutes.  I haven't done my Kettle Bell work out and I think I'm going to pick that up again. I really saw amazing results with that. As for my calories, I have good days and bad days. Some days I eat about 1200 calories, other days I eat about 2000 (so it seems) but I'm getting that under control as well. I am working hard, trying to discipline myself to workout even when I don't feel like it. To cut back on the portions even when I want more and to drink water instead of soda.  In reality I wish I was seeing quicker results but that in itself just isn't reality . Hard work and consistency. That shall be my motto.
