Wow am I tired today. Did some laundry, put a lot of laundry away, vacuumed, cleaned off my dresser, went to Goodwill and and bought Em some shorts, shirts and a Spring jacket. Then we went over to WalMart and bought her some shorts and shirts. Kaye was at a gymnastics birthday party while we did all this. I tried on some shorts at Goodwill and was just plain disgusted. Not with the shorts, but with myself for how much weight I've gained. I gotta get my act together.
The thing is I had a difficult enough time trying to fit in my fitness time before I started my new work-at-home job. Now I need to figure out the when and how of it in between everything else I have to do. In hindsight I should've lost all this weight by now, not gained it all back. I'm the heaviest I've been in my life, except for when I was pregnant. It always hits me most when I try clothes on in the store or try clothes on when switching clothes in and out for the season. I'm miffed
that a lot of my Spring pants just don't fit. Just angry
with myself for quitting on me.
Last April I posted a blog entry about SparkPeople. Please take a look back at it
here because there is a lot of great information in that post about the SparkPeople site. I need to get back into 'sparking' and challenge myself with a 10 minute a day workout plan. Start small and work up to more time because I am so out of shape. Finding new meal plans, recipes and snack ideas is also a priority. Like everything else in my life I need to make the time. Hopefully I will find the time, energy and willpower to move forward and get fit and healthy once and for all. This has been the struggle of my life and I want to end the struggle.
I hope your weekend is less depressing than how mine has been going.
Enjoy the rest of it folks!
