Today is a day when I could just Pull out my hair.
I am a young (22) stay at home mother of three little girls 4, 2 (almost 3), and 1. I recently have been having some disipline problems with my 2 oldest girls. Time-out is working, but the extreme guilt I feel when I get on to them ruins my day. :( I'm not sure why? I realize I am shaping my children for the future and disipline is a must. The thing is when I send them to time-out I hear how awful I am, I hear I hate you, and so on. I love my children with all of my heart and it breaks my heart to hear them talk this way to me. Where is the respect? I do things knowing the example I am setting. I show respect to them and others and hoping the example will follow on to them, but for some reason they have been extremly disrespectful. They are wonderful children and I'm sure this is just a stage and it will pass, but for now my heart hurts.
On another note, I did get my goals done for yesterday and today excerise goals are:
90 oz of water 1 miles on treadmill 30 min. bike 30 min arms
Today has been good so far. I haven't had a chance to workout yet, but I am going to. I got my breakfast in today and a light lunch, yeah for me.
Well my fav. show started back again. Biggest Loser! I just love the show and am looking forward to watching it every week. I can't believe that one guy lost 30 pounds in a week. WOW!
Well I guess I should address my daily goals:
3 miles on treadmill 20 min. Stairstepper 20 min. ABS
I did have a few things I would have changed, like I wish I would have ate breakfast. I skipped it once again! ugghhh.. I wish I wouldn't do that.
We home-schooled for a few hours this morning, Cooked a healthy lunch for kids and hubby, and got ALOT of housework completed.
Kids are down for nap and I need to exercise. The thing is my right foot on the side is hurting, so I won't be jogging on it until it heels. I might do a short walk, but I will probably just work my stomach and arms today.
Today has been good, but of course I got on the scale BEFORE weigh-in. I just can't stay away. Anyways I was Surprised to see 177 pounds. GOOD you think? Not Really, because just 2 days ago I weighed 184. That's 7 pounds in 2 days! of course it sounds great, but I want to be healthy. How is this possible to lose 7 pounds in 2 days. I'm not sick. I feel great and have been exercising a great deal.
I thought that a healthy weight to lose was between 2-3 pounds a WEEK! I'm really worried about this sudden lost. Could it be Water weight I wonder? Not sure.
Of course I like being 177 pounds, but wondering if this is going to have effects on my body. If anyone can offer advice, please Feel Free to do so. Thanks!
I was thinking about my eating habits, and i was debating on eating 6-8 small meals a day. Was wondering if this could boost my metabolism. Does anyone else do this?
Also, I have a huge problem weighing myself 10 times a day.... No joke. I was thinking about hiding the scaLE, LOL, but of course I would know where it was at...DARN! ;)
I looking forward to a great day. I forgot how great excerising makes me feel. I really actually enjoy it. So I plan on for sure getting some more done.
I have been drinking so much water, and really hate being in the bathroom all the time, but I guess thats what it takes. Is it posible to drink to much water? hummm
Goals for today: Walk 3 miles 20 min. Stairstepper and work on abs and arms :)
FRIDAY: A new Day, A new Plan, and new Way of thinking!
Today I ate breakfast! this is a great thing for me, because I'm not a breakfast person. I do realize breakfast is a very important meal. I haven't drank much water yet, but I still have the rest of the day to get it in. :)
Excerise goals for today:
3 miles on treadmill workout arms 15 min. stairstepper
Well after not losing what I wanted, I quit! Why? I'm not sure. Feelings of failing I suppose. I sit here thinking about what I could be at if I would have keep pushing on. Those aren't thoughts I really need right now. I am just going to focus on now and the future. I did get in some great exercise today. I went to the store and stocked up on bottled water. Now I can hopefully get the needed amount in. I have always struggled with drinking pop. Awhile back I stopped drinking it and did lose a great deal with exercise included.
My goals for September:
* To lose 10 pounds * Drink a lot of water * Exercise 5 days a week * No Skipping Meals * Don't Over Eat
Its been a hectic summer. Hardly time to blog, but now things are slowing down and I'm back!
Been slow on the watching what I eat. Meaning I will watch what I eat half the day.....not sure why my mind works like that, lol
Oh well watching some is better than none. I'm going to start watching all food and drink consumption.
I had a great workout today!
I have been having trouble sleeping at night, but last night I worked out and sleep great. I think not only am I going to workout during the day but also try to get some time on the treadmill before bed.
