#mamavation monday

>
Well I have not even posted in two months.  I really let everything go, and getting back on track has been touch.  This week I am GOING to do better, and am joining the Two week Grunt style challenge with @mrbookieboo.  I am pretty darn sure I am going to be crawling by the end of week one, but I need this challenge to get me going.

I am going to get back on track by posting every week and am going to start journaling again too.  I need to get more focused.  The other big change I am making this week is only allowing myself to eat sitting at the kitchen table.  No grabbing food on the go, no grabbing food and sitting on the couch.  If I need to eat while I am out, then I will pack a lunch, but otherwise that is it.  I find myself snacking and craving all the crappy food again because I let myself eat them. 

I kept saying once I got home from vacation I would be good....well I was busy and found myself not sticking to plans.   Then I said once school started.....yeah then I have dealt with other changes in the kids.  Kennedy and my step daughter had some seizures, the baby has been teething and up a lot, now Kennedy has been sick and Zach I think is getting there.  But I am not going to make excuses.  There should be no reason I can't get moving, and no reason I need to resort to junk food or making not so healthy meals.  This is the time the meals need to get healthier.

So I am back, and ready to start feeling better.  So it is time to get moving mentally and physically!

  1. Good luck on sticking to your plan.. you know you can do it. I to have the tendency to eat on the go and not look at what i am eating. Need to kick it to the curb. I've also joined to do the 2 week challenge again. Good luck on that and have a great week. :)

  8. Start with small goals and celebrate them when you accomplish them. -Drink 64 oz. water, -walk 10,000 steps, lose 1 lb.
