Well, I'm obviously NOT one of those people who can religiously sit down every day or two and 'blog'. I think it might be the kids... or life in general, I guess :)
Things are going fantastic! Actually, the exercise is fantastic and the weight loss is kind of at a stand still but about to be going downward again! I have about 3 1/2weeks until I take my final 'maintenance' picture for the Isabody Challenge. I am so extremely proud of myself at this point in my life. I'm getting healthy, exercising regularly, and eating well (for the most part :)). I guess I didn't realize how much I DIDN'T do until I started this whole challenge. I almost NEVER exercised! Now, I feel like crap if there are even 2 days in between my workouts. I've finally started giving myself some attention and it feels great! It took a while for me to realize that it is alright to leave the kids so that I can go workout. I am always feeling guilty about putting myself first and it pisses me off!! It has taken me a lot of self talk to stop that insanity!! And, I still do it occasionally! I'm not sure where the hell that came from, but it is changing. I'm realizing that the kids are fine at their grandparents house while I go to the gym and that daddy is perfectly capable of handling the kids on his own :) I also firmly believe that my children are going to learn from my actions. If they see me eating healthy and exercising, that is going to teach them to do the same. I actually think that it might be helping the hubby, too. Don't tell him that, though! Hopefully I am right, because it would be really nice to have him as a running partner.
Better get on with my day. The girls are at Grandma and Papa's house and hubby is working... time to focus on me ;)
