Okay, so I am on my 3rd week of this 10 week workout. I have struggled to complete each day, but I have done my best to make up anything that I didn't do the day before. My other hurdle has been my eating. This last week I have been SOO hungry, I'm trying to eat better, but it is HARD!! I did go to the store today & pick up some items to make smoothies again. We got a smoothie maker several years ago & I LOVE IT! But it seems as though i never make the time to get the ingredients or to actually make it. So hopefully I can get started on better eating.
I am going to try over the next few weeks to really watch what I eat, but more importantly watch my portion sizes. Do I really need seconds....I think not.
Now on a more humerous note: Last night we celebrated my dad's birthday at my brother's house. We were all there & so were our 4 .....well 3 monkeys & 1 angel child (that's my sister's baby). Anyway, my son & oldest nephew had been playing really hard, then my other nephew decided to join in. Next thing we hear..."Dad, I puked on my bed". Sure enough out comes my oldest nephew with puke on his shirt, once everyone enters into the room there is puke on the bed, my son is coughing & gagging, & my other nephew is mimicking all of it. Thankfully they were not sick but both have had bad coughs & drainage, so getting all worked up sent them into puke mode. Happy Birthday DAD!!
My little guy is doing really good with going on the potty. It is unbelievable, I sometimes have to stop & think before packing a bag to go somewhere. I don't need 8 diapers & a pack of wipes:) Life is good in that department.
I'm currently preparing for a women's outreach event at our church. I am super excited & feel like God has called me to lead this. NOW... I have to work on speaking slowly & clearly. Those that know me know just how fast I talk on a normal basis, but when I am in front of people I am usually double speed.
Well until next time, happy blogging:)
That's so awesome! Good for you. I really struggle with portion sizes as well. I was just thinking today that it's hard to retrain your brain as to what a normal portion size is. My son will be 2 on March 2nd and we've been working hard on potty training. He's been doing pretty good, but I haven't been brave enough to take him out of the house in big boy pants yet :) I'm going to have to break down and do it sooner or later.
ReplyDeleteYeah I havent done so well this past week w/ portion sizes or eating right in general. I always think well I will start tomorrow...but of course it is the same thing the next day. When we started taking my son out in underwear we limited his fluid intake & we were in the bathroom several times before we would leave & when we would arrive somewhere. Good Luck!! And considering he isn't even 2 yet you are doing great!
