Aaaaahhhhh my mother is nuts!! I'm trying y'all!! She is here and moved in....sort of. We got land. Still gotta get electric and water before we move over there!! Won't take too long a few weeks!! Man my mom is too young to be like this. She completely acts helpless and just wants everything done for her....all of a sudden. She has been taking care of my grandma!! How is it now she is just feble and incapable of living a normal life!! Oh wait she drinks daily and smokes like a freight train.....still no excuse. Sometimes I swear she is taking.... knowing my mom. It's possible. Only time she acts capable is when you piss her off then she can do anything!! Miraculous!! Between her and my husband I'm gonna lose my mind!! This is the *kitten* that makes me gain weight y'all!! They pressure me and pressure me and just make me want to blow up!!!! Wish me luck y'all!! I'm trying hard to keep my *kitten* together!!!3

Yesterday was nuts!!! My husband got our badass 4x4 truck STUCK!! Deeper than *kitten*!! Dip *kitten*!! Just went off all half cocked and *kitten*!! Been doing that alot lately and then he gets all pissy with me!! Nope!! Been telling all about it!! Over it. Hopefully this taught him.....he needs to cool his tits a bit!! Sheesh!!! Needless to say my eating was thrown yesterday!! But I burned so many extra calories pushing pulling and digging the damn truck out!! Bwhahaha!! My fat was crying by the end of it all!! Total sweat fest!! Hopefully the negative food was burned off by my extra work out!! I had already cleaned for 5.5 hours!! Double the work out yesterday!!2

Stress is making it hard to focus. I gotta start working out again to relax. It's so much more than weight loss.....for real!!
The land is coming along!! Dug out tanks got dirt for house pads and roads. Electric is in the works. Next water and my mom's septic in the ground!! Got a lot to do still to get out there!!! Wish we could be there already......so much pressure!!!!1 -

Y'all life is crazy!! This whole move has had me feeling lonely. I express my needs to my family.....nothing. I need a date night. Some fun. A reason to get all pretty. Alone time with my hubby without a TV on??? Nope nada....but he is going fishing and hanging with his brother soon!! Yah for him .....I have given to my family and friends till my tank is just empty. Now I'm angry and just quiet. Not helping my emotional state. I gotta get food and emotional tension separate!!! Grrrrrrr at least I'm gonna hit the 3 work out goalfor this week!! Same goal next week! I gotta do this for me.....at least I'm gonna give myself something I need hahaha3

Well yesterday I logged half my food. It's a start. I overloaded at diner. At least I didn't have a big dessert. Calling it a win. I ended up cleaning yesterday instead of working out. Burned a few calories. My mom finnaly got to move into her house!! So that left cleaning the RV. It was bad she let her lil dog pee and poo in there. Not to mention she is a smoker and made it soooo bad!! Trying to get it ready for family in the next few days!! Be working on it everyday till it's done. Got the living scrubbed yesterday. Kitchen Tonight after work. Leaving to early to work out this morning. Got 2 houses to clean. A girl is with me. Just starting today. Hopefully it goes smoothly!!0

Hello, everyone. Here I am AGAIN starting this journey, at Thanksgiving, no less. Pre-COVID I was doing what I considered pretty good. Fast forward to today, and I am about 15 pounds heavier. At the time, I worked in kindergarten as a Special Needs Aide. Cutting school out was very difficult...almost like a death. I missed my school kids and I worried about them as if they were my own, and I cried daily because of it. This year I am in first grade going through the very same thing with some of the same kids as last year. Seeing my kiddos and coworkers through Google Classroom is nice but it isn't the same. Eating is obviously my coping mechanism. I don't know where to begin with exercise and there isn't a gym nearby, not that I'd subject myself to that environment the way I look. I NEED accountability in the worst way. It's time to take control of my habits before they take control of me. Starting next month, I will begin another journey toward my Bachelor's degree in Criminology & Criminal Justice online from The University of Alabama. There are many dynamics going on in my life....kids & husband and everything that goes with upkeep of a household; working full-time from home while trying to help my own kids as they attempt to learn online as well; full-time college student; and my own health (physical, mental, emotional). Advice and criticism are appreciated.2

Zero criticism from me!!! props for taking on so much!! Your heart is huge!! Your goals are admirable!!! First, don't beat yourself up for finding comfort during the most uncomfortable year of our lives!! Be proud it was only 15lbs!! We gained about the same covid weight!! Oh yeah!! 15lbs club over here!! Yep making changes during Thanksgiving probably crazy!!! BUT if we change our routine now we won't get the holiday 5!! 😝😝 I am doing good everyday till Thursday and after!! I am planning 2000 on Thursday!!! Gonna leave a deficit until then!! I workout from home!! I'd be happy to hook ya up with the apps I use and what not!! I don't like to work out at the gym....it's just gross....always felt that way since highschool!! My bestie is a special needs teacher!!! Y'all would have so much in common!! Natalie just got done crushing a college degree while working and raising two kids all on her own !!! Women like y'all are rare!! Beautiful!!!!!!!!! With all the things you accomplish day to day.....I have zero doubts that you will stay in the place you are in now!! You will find success!!
