Day 1 of the challenge from HELLLLLLL! ;-)
Uncategorized 5 Comments »I weighed in this morning. I wish I hadn’t. I am not even paying attention. I know yesterday was filled with nastiness, but not 5 pounds worth. I am all in for this challenge and I know that will get me back to scale reality. The bad part? My Grandmother is coming into town on Wednesday, so I basically have today through Wednesday morning to get the exercise part done. I am just going to have to hard core it today and tomorrow, and get in at least 100 minutes of exercise. It can be done, it’s just gonna SUCK! The water I’m not worried about, it’s the food. I know I’ll be fine except Thursday night we’re going out to eat (don’t know where) and Friday morning (again, no clue) so hopefully those places have reasonable options.
My Aunt has decided we’re going to Europe next summer (OMG! YAY!!!), and so I am planning the things we’ll do so we can see how long we want to stay. I’m in charge of Ireland, England, and France, and she’s doing Italy, Greece, and Germany. Can I just tell you, I am so freaking ecxited about this!!! I really want to be in the best shape I can be in. I want us to take a bike ride tour of Southern Ireland. This is just more motivation for me!!!
I have bootcamp this morning, but since I am having surgery next month and the boys are on Spring Break, I think this will be my last day. I’m ok with it, but I am going to miss the challenge. Although, that is what you Slump Buster’s are for!
Okay, I gotta jet. Happy Monday, chickies!

******************
Well, I ended up on the phone all morning… my aunt (trip stuff), then my sister (wedding stuff), and then my BFF (her BF isn’t coming home for an extra 2 months from Afghanistan)… so that ended boot camp. UGH. Then, the hubby came home and brought two friends, so now it is almost 1 in the afternoon and I haven’t even worked out yet! And, I need to fit in 100 minutes today! Is this even doable? I hope so. I am honestly not feeling like doing anything right now, I’m not gonna lie. I’m going to read some blogs and see if I can find some mojo… hopefully the lil man will be asleep by then.
FYI: No mojo is to be had. Nap? Now that sounds good…
*****************
Okay, I think I psyched myself up for a big night of working out. The hubby has his first class tonight and so I am going to get the kiddos up in bed watching a movie when he leaves and enjoy a night to myself filled with running and weight intervals, and then topped off with a little biking. 100 minutes WILL be mine! And the lesson I have learned even before having to do the 100 minutes? DO something, anything, first thing in the morning like I usually do! Sheesh, I am so lazy!
********************
I just killed myself, literally, for an hour. I was going to do more, but honestly, it is almost 10 o’clock at night and I am wasted. I did my running and weight intervals. Can I just tell you… I did an ungodly amount of squats and lunges tonight. My sister (other) called to talk about the dresses, and apparently they are not forgiving of a jiggly belly. Motivation? I got it.
Night, chickies!
