I set a few goals awhile back for Bat Fit to lose weight. Here is my latest update.
Drink more water - no problem. I have a 24 oz cup that I keep full of ice water while I'm at work. My next goal on this is to make sure I'm drinking more water at home.
Be accountable - I want to do something more than these updates. I want to show what I'm eating and before pics. I never take pics of my body. I hate seeing myself like this. But I think it will help. It will be a constant reminder to stay focused.
Eat at home more - We rarely eat out anymore. I think I had a jalapeno cheeseburger from McDonald's because it was new and looked awesome on the commercial. lol
Exercise and Zumba - I have not been exercising at all. The kids went back to school last week. We are down to one vehicle and I have a newborn at home. I get home from working 3rd to feed the baby and then to get the kids ready for school. Then, depending on who all we have that day, I have to drop off 3-5 people at 3-5 different places. All the kids go to different schools. Then the husband has to get to work. After getting little sleep caring for the baby, I have to get back out and pick everyone up. Then there's homework to do, laundry always has to be done, dinner has to be made and dishes cleaned. Then I have to get ready for work.... I have not been able to find time for me yet. I will, eventually. But right now, I just can't exercise at all and it makes me feel really badly about myself.
MyFitnessPal app - I have been tracking. I have been staying under the calories allotted but I 'm not losing weight as much now. What I really like about the app is the "Complete Entry" feature. When I complete the day, I get a cool message telling me how much I would weigh in 5 weeks if I have the same kind of day from then on.

I have a 43 inch waist and I weigh181 lbs at the moment. I've lost 10 lbs since I started but I think that's from breastfeeding. I wear XL or size 16. I'm finally starting to fit into nonmaternity clothes. That has really jump started my confidence. It's a start. I have a whole closet full of gorgeous size 6-9 clothing that I will never throw out. I WILL fit into them again.
I just don't want to get lazy. I want to get moving! Ay ideas on how to sneak exercise into a very busy schedule?
Wow it sounds like you really have your hands full! I don't know how you have the energy for all that running around with a newborn baby too! Well done and keep it up :)
ReplyDeleteHoly cow! That is a lot! Don't feel bad for not finding time to exercise. I think at this point, you don't want to overdo it. I too have a hard time finding time to exercise but I do have an hour lunch. Sometimes just going for a walk is very helpful.
