Slacker...

Alright I have been a terrible slacker. It has been 4 days since my last post (confession). These last few days I have amped up the desire to make healthy changes. I finally got paid and was able to get my kitchen restocked with groceries that would provide healthy options instead of just crackers and cheese and whatever else I could scrounge up :) It feels so good to have a kitchen full of options and to know that those options will not cause me to cringe and later regret my choice.

I walked on lunch 3 out of the 5 days so I don't feel too terribly. My only frustration is that I reach the peak of enjoying my work out and getting into that good groove when I have to stop and get de-sweatified and then go make my lunch. There is no way around it though so I have accepted it and feel lucky/happy that I am doing even just that little burst of a work out during the day. Better than nothing right? I am still frustrated that I am seeing very little movement on the scale and don't feel much movement in my shape. I attribute this to being in the midst of my "womanly" time but I think that's bogus. (ok really it isn't bogus but I just really really want to see some improvement)

I am enjoying the renewed energy and the pride I feel by working out and by taking charge and eating better. I feel like but getting myself under control and enjoying a healthier lifestyle I will be better equipped to set a great example for my son. I realize now why so many of my friends chose healthier foods and were more active as kids because of the fact that their parents set that example. I am by no means knocking my parents or our life growing up, I'm just saying that I didn't learn all of those skills early.

I will be measuring next week. I'm trying to do it on a monthly basis. My fingers are crossed that I will see some results. I am looking forward to seeing a shrinking waistline and smaller thighs. Ugh my thighs....there is a giant wall of mirrors in the work out room and while I walk on the treadmill I get to see the way my legs move and lets just say I don't like it. I want to feel like Heidi Klum walkin the catwalk not like the Pillsbury Dough boy rollin out his buns.

Welcome 3rd week of a new start....lets get this party started (ooh good Pink reference...she has a rockstar body too...lets work for that, except that I'll be curvier that biatch has the boy shape)
