One Long Week!!!

Okay so last week to be very honest was one of the longest weeks of MY LIFE!!!!
                           
                              WHY?? You ask??


Well..... my body kinda plateaued for a couple of months. No matter what I did, how hard I worked out, how big the calorie deficit was at the end of the day....when it came time to weigh in.. I would maintain at 165. I think there was one week where I lost a lbs, then I would shoot right back up to 165... And I'm pretty happy with my weight. But I wouldn't mind droppin' a few more lbs. I don't want to be SUPER MODEL THIN...because quit frankly they look like they need to eat..or if you can guess this line of a movie...your awesome!!  "Geez, somebody get that kid a sandwich!" Cuz that is one of the best movies EVER!!!!!
 So I don't want to loose too much, I know I set my goal weight at 150. I don't know if that is realistic or not...I'm only about 5'2". And I feel that this would be a good goal weight. If its not...that okay..I will hopefully get there! Heck...last year at this time I was in the 180's..so I know its possible I just have to want it  bad enough! If I think back I know what the culprit is/was....STUPID Christmas cookies, cakes, and anything sweet I ate it. I just kind of talked myself into eating it.***hangs head to admit defeat**

But I know I don't want to get any lower than said goal weight. I have to be SUPER careful!! I kind of had this problem in high school where I would workout for like 3 hours in the morning, take PE or dance during school..then come home and workout. Not very many people knew..I think my younger sister knew that I had some kind of problem....and that is about it. The point is for  me to not become obsessed with it! Don't feel sad or sorry that you didn't know....I didn't want ANYONE to know. I know why I did it...those BULLIES in middle school followed me all the way through High school.

ANYWAY.....sorry kind of got off topic...what was I saying?

Oh yeah! So last week I took it off from working out...and  finally on Thursday...I caved and did some yoga, and after that yoga I was soo stinkin sore, but not everywhere...just in the obliques. Weird, right??  And I HATE NOT WORKING OUT!!!! I have come to a realization that I needed to workout for my sanity! I totally looked forward to the endorphin rush during and after working out! I needed to workout so I could eat more!! Let me be quit honest I think my family NEEDED me to work out so I was NOT so grumpy!

This week I have been doing Les Mills Combat :Supreme Warrior Hybrid. Every single morning I have been waking up so sore! Let me tell ya EVERYWHERE!! I only thought that I would achieve muscle soreness in the biceps by lifting heavy...wrongo!! I woke up yesterday to sore biceps!! With combat yeah...there are some strength days and more body weight training...but not on Tuesday.  So maybe having that week off was a good thing....as much as it killed me I needed that rest so my body will get confused and hopefully I can break this darn plateau!
You can achieve anything...all you have to have is FAITH!!

Nutritional tips...okay maybe NOT but its just things that I do

 Request after request came in and so yes.....I will write a nutritional guide..if you wanna even call it that. So..............(<<<<those dots were pointed out to me in my last blog by the hubbs..so these dots are for you!) Did you know that no matter how HARD you train...no matter how long you spend with Shawn T, or any other trainer that you love....its only 20%.   yep, ya'll heard me ONLY 20%!!!!!!!!!! I know my jaw hit the floor too when I was told this number! Surely there must be some kind of mistake! Well after hours of banging my head against a wall(okay so I was down on the floor throwing a temper tantrum like a 3 year old, kicking and flailing my arms...) I came to accept that no matter how hard I worked out the reason I was not seeing ANY results during the first part of my fitness journey was because diet is 80%.  I know...it sucks....but it is totally true. Hmmm well how am I going to eat healthy?? Well to be quit honest I just remember introducing

It's the Holiday season!!!

T'was the week before Christmas when all through district #91 some choir teachers thought it would be amusing to have 2 concerts in 2 separate schools on the same night.  The parents not so much! How exactly was I suppose to show support to both daughters?!! We did what any normal parents would do in this situation...  We split up, JUST FOR THE CONCERTS!! Talk about divide and conquer baby!! It was great! Ken and Sam went to Leslie's concert...which was themed The Polar Express. And it was cute. Ken was able to get a couple of cute pictures and a video. When I watched it when we met back home...I couldn't help it...I started to cry because I don't want to miss these precious moments of her life. I don't want her to look out into the audience of anything she performs in and be that one parent who doesn't show, I can't handle that look of disappointment in my children's faces.  So that left me...and my mom to go to Kylie's concert.

I almost surrendered

It has been a really long time since I have blogged last and I know that I said I was going to blog about Girls Camp..but I will eventually get to that..but these last 2 weeks have been so hard. Like harder than normal...I felt myself wanting to give in and give up to the pain in my heart.  I thought that this latest trial would break me...I feel as though I have noghting left to give. What am I suppose to learn from this that I haven't already learned from the last one. Well...I'll start from the beginning to get you guys caught up. I am a substitute teacher and I was subbing for my son's class for about 3 weeks because his teacher had to have surgery and she was out for a while. So I'm subbing for this teacher who is great and I sometimes wonder if I'm even qualified to fill her shoes cuz guys teaching is H.A.R.D!!! And I've known most of these kids for a while...I subbed last year for and so for the most part I'm pretty comfortable with the kids...
