Anyone else scared for September to roll around and school to start? I'm already freaking out about it, lol. I've been on such a good exercise routine and clean diet program this entire summer but I'm afraid that with the kids starting school soon it's going to kill any sort of progress I've made the past few months.
The mornings and afternoons won't be my problem because this year I have both sons going to school so I'll have a big chunk of the day to myself to eat right and get my exercise in. The problem for me, lies in the evenings.
Previously, I'd be knee-deep in homework and things like folding laundry that making dinner seemed so daunting. A lot of the times, I'd make convenience food like mac n' cheese with fries or hot dogs or pizza. I did that a lot. I still exercised but my junk food diet hindered my progress. I don't want to make the same mistake again. I don't have a ton of time to make a dinner from scratch and my DH gets home after the kids are in bed so I don't have any help.
But I'm determined not to slip back into my old habits. I realize now that being fit and healthy is 80% diet so I have to stay the course for myself and my children's sake.
Anyone else have the same fears about the school year starting with regards to your progress?
