So What Wednesday..

So What Wednesday

  • So what if I have only been able to complete ourf things on my summer bucket list. 
Summer Bucket List

  • So what if I'm eating out three times this week. It's summer and I'm tired of being stressed out over everything I eat and do. I'm going to relax and have some fun before summer is over. 
Kind of my motto this summer! lol

  • So what if I let my child watch an hour of TV in the morning just so I can drink my coffee and watch the Today show... (Before I had kids I totally judged people who let their kids watch TV)
  • So what that I have two weeks before vacation and three before I go back to school and have yet to lose a SINGLE pound all freakin summer! 
  • So what that my two year old doesn't want to potty train. I mean you don't see kids go to school in diapers so it has to happen at some point. 

Hope you all have a great Hump Day!! Check back tomorrow for my July goals recap and my August goals.

Weekly Goals Link-Up

This is the first day I have been able to sit down and complete a post since last Monday. I have two posts thati never posted from last week due to my craziness. I helped out with VBS last week which took my mornings away, and them decided to have a yard sale Friday and Saturday so I spent all afternoon planning and setting up for that. Needless to say I failed to stick to my meal plan and complete the 30 day shred last week, however, I didn't partake in alcohol from Tuesdsy-Friday so that goal was 99% completed.

On to my new goals for this week. I have 12 days till I go on vacation and I want to feel confident in myself. I feel the best when I am working out and really trying so here's to making the next 12 days great!

Operation Skinny Jeans
Goal one:  Do the 30DS level 1 everyday this week. I would also like to throw in a couple runs of at least 1 mile each time.

Goal two: LOW carb. I read somewhere that doing sometg drastic to jump start your weightloss has actually been proven to be fore effective than losing weight really slowly. I have always had really good luck with eating low carb in the past and now that I'm back to a somewhat normal routine for the next 12 days I feel like I can achieve this.

Goal three: Get my stinking water in!! It is so hard for me to drink my water everyday and I have no idea why. Does anyone have any suggestions? I love water, but I just don't drink very often or much. Help!

My Outlet

As I laid in bed last night I was so sad. I failed again - another Monday with goals set and another day where I was just too lazy to accomplish them. I was sad because of how depressed I am with myself and how selfish that is! Sometimes when we feel overwhelmed we have to switch our mind sets. People's lives are WAY worse than mine. The Salvation Army in my town is turning away hundreds of families a day because they are out of food and money. People are hungry. Children are being beat. Yet here I am upset because I ate a cheeseburger instead of an apple. Yes I'm tired of failing, but more than that I'm tired of being so selfish! I'm being selfish by not getting healthy for my daughter, being selfish by playing this woe is me game with myself, and selfish to myself for not giving myself the best life I can live.

I have read lots of Skinny Meg and Mama Laughlins past posts and what I notice most is how happy they are now that they have accomplished their goals. I want to be happy! I want to be an after picture instead of a before. I know that I'm not perfect and will probably mess up again, but life is way too short to sit around and feel sorry for ourselves.

Today will be a selfless day. I will do things for other people and put others before myself. More than losing weight I want to be a life changer and you can't be selfish and a life changer.

Peace and Love Y'all!


A Low Point - Weekly Goals!

I for 10 days rocked the shizz out of some 30 Day Shred. Then, my schedule changed and I went back to my normal routine - eating crap, not working out, feeling exhausted, mad, and moody. I'm tired of it! Tomorrow is a brand new day and the beginning of a brand new week and I have some huge goals to finish up the month of July.

Operation Skinny Jeans
Goal one:
   Quit being lame and get yo tush out of bed and workout! My goal is to do the 30 day shred level 2 every day Monday-Sunday. Along with that I would like to run a total of 4 miles this week. However I get that done I don't care, but it's getting done.

Goal two:
  Absolutely NO alcohol during the week. It's summer time which makes that hard, but I feel like I would need help if I couldn't at least do that for a week. Lol

Goal Three:
   Stick to my meal plan. I have planned out meals for the next week for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and I want to stick to that plan. Along with weight loss my husband and I are also trying to become debt free so sticking to this goal will help me accomplish two goals!


Hope y'all have a great Monday! It's a brand new day and after coming off a crappy week I'm thankful for a chance for a do-over!

Finish the Sentence Link-up





Linking up today with Holly and Jake for Finish the Sentence!!!
button

If I had one extra hour in the day.. I would sleep! Can we say TWO YEAR old!?

I wish my name.. was Princess! There was a student last year that we had whose name was Primcess. Do you know how awkward it is to say, "Princess get in line." "Princess raise your hand." I want it to be super awkward for the nurse at the doctors office to say, "Princess time for your appointment".

I think anything chevron is pretty much amazing. However, I tried to chevron a wall in the playroom.


 
Epic Fail!!
It wasn't a Skinny Meg masterpiece that is for sure!

My last nightmare... I'm always falling off something.

Sometimes.. I randomly fist pump while driving when a really good song comes on. I'm pretty much the next big thing.


My last meal on earth would be sushi! I'm addicted!

I'd much rather be fat with boobs than skinny with a chest bone sticking out.

Mayonnaise is a must on a B.L.T. Sandwich!

10 years ago, I didn't think I would have a two year old.

Selfishly, I love laying in the bathtub and catching up on blogs while the husband puts the Princess to bed.

My favorite TV show right now.. I can't even decide. I puffy heart Real Housewives of New Jersey and the O.C.  I am also addicted to Pretty Little Liars, Jimmy Fallon, and Ellen!

30 Day Shred Level Two Hell

I started level two last Monday because I was feeling crazy! I was doing AWESOME!! until Friday came.. I decided to take the day off because I was dying. I felt really light headed and was having super bad headaches. Well one day led to another, and needless  to say I haven't done the 30 day shred since Thursday. So even though today is July 17th, I'm only on day 10 of the challenge.

EPIC FAIL!!

However, today is a new day so I'm up and at em'... Today I will do the 30 day shred level two, run a mile, track my food, and drink my water. I have learned this past year that just because you fall off the wagon, it doesn't mean you have to give up and quit. Just get back up the next day and get with it. I felt so much better when I felt like I was dying at the end of everyday because I know that meant that my body was changing.

So remember, even if you feel like giving up or that you have screwed up too much, get back up and get on that horse and get with it!!
