Week 3 Day 2 Check-In

Wow, all of my time off from work and away from home has me all out of whack! First day back at work after another 4 days off..I feel so lost! No gym this morning , will most likely get my steps in today though because its end of month which means lots of walking around and getting stuff done for inventory. I hope everyone enjoyed their holiday!

    Week 4 Day 4 Check-In! (looks like I was still stuck in Week 3 yesterday lol)

    I didn't go to the gym AGAIN but I promise next week it's on! Finally getting my house back in order from the chaos that was the past couple weeks, and came across an old pic from a couple years ago and posted it on FB as my TBT and everyone was sending me messages telling me how skinny I was lol Made me sad but ambitious at the same time! and to think I was 170lbs in the pic, only about 20 to go until I am there again!

    I think cleaning counts as some serious exercise if you're doing it right! Also, I hope you are taking progress pics! It really does make a big difference in how you view yourself. I can never tell much of a difference between back to back photos (~2 months apart)but I see a HUGE difference in the ones that are ~4 months apart. It's a nice affirmation.

    I have a picture of me and my boyfriend from ~1 year ago. I have a picture of us from the vacation we just came back from where we are posed in almost the same way and we are wearing almost the exact same clothes. The difference is waaay more than I expected.

    I've been so tired lately. I finally got a good night's sleep because I put my A/C unit in and didn't sweat all night...but I'm still sleepy. What do you guys do to keep going besides drink a lot of coffee?

    I am feeling really pumped. I'm finally in a place where I feel like I'm doing the right things and the weight is starting to come off! And I haven't even gotten back into working out yet. Next week I am committing to getting some good walks in at a minimum...this weekend should be busy cleaning cleaning cleaning!!!!!

    That is awesome! Rock it out! Working out is nice, but you don't need it to lose weight - it is a whole different kind of commitment and goals. You can do this even if you can't work out right now. continue being awesome!

    I haven't worked out in a few weeks now. I feel motivated today as well. The fitbit device is cool but it takes some getting used to having it on my arm. I also still struggle with seeing my stomach in the mirror. My husband and I have been spending more time together which is awesome. He is really supportive. My whole family is really supportive. My daughters cheer me on. We have such a busy life, however, it is a challenge but I can say we definitely make the effort. Hope you all are doing well!

    That is awesome. I hope my last week will provide some added momentum for my weight loss. I really want to see improvements by my birthday in August. You rock and thank you for inspiring me!
