That's right, I'll admit it, I have a number of jeans made by JLO; and yes I mean Jennifer Lopez, a woman who truly knows about larger then average back sides. Which would be great for my current state except that they don't fit me at all. Well I stand corrected, they will fit me if I suck in and use an elastic band to attach the zipper. This week I have become a victim to my one rule; don't smash yourself into something that doesn't fit. Unfortunately my thrifty side has taken over my want to loose weight side. I should go out to buy new clothes to fit into, but do I really need to spend the money when hopefully I won't fit into them next month. I just can't justify the money being spent. So this week, on several occasions I intentionally had mom butt, just so I could wear jeans. In my defense I did have a long sweater on in hopes of concealing it a little. Even my husband admitted that I had a mild case of mom butt, but that it was good to see me in jeans. So I've made a new goal this month to try to run at least 2 miles everyday this month. Well maybe just during the week. But I'm really going to try to stick to this. I'm still doing the push-ups every morning and trying to get the yoga in at least 4 times a week. Tonight I will post what my workout will be tomorrow so we can all keep up with the weight lifting.
I've also tried to watch what I've been eating so that I can add to the weight loss. Start with simple changes, stop drinking soda, or sugar packed juices. Drink water. I've been trying not to snack during the day, and if I do I've been trying to only eat healthy snacks. I've stopped picking off my kids plates. This is really hard, but I know it will be better in the long run. Good bye cold mac and cheese and chicken nuggets. Lastly, I have stopped eating dessert late at night. Eventually I will cut it out all together. But I need to take things one step at a time. I would really like to loose at least 10lbs in the next 2 weeks to fit into that dress hanging in my closet.
Okay. Have a wonderful day and get motivated to loose weight and get healthy. You can be skinny and still not be very healthy. Everyone should have some form of exercise in there lives.
