Oh what a day! Being a mom with young kids is hard enough so I try so hard to keep it organized and on a schedule. My family is very scheduled not because I am being hardcore military its because my girls function better on it and I keep my sanity! So keeping a workout schedule is very important to me or I feel out of sync. This month Matthew and I have to work around Krysta's basketball to run. There is no he gets home after work and its decided oh we are to tired. No we will go come rain, snow, or shine. Living in the Pacific Northwest rain is more common then not.
I am convinced that losing weight is partially mental, you have to fight with your inner voice on what you can and cant do. Tonight on our run we were almost done and Matthew thought we had done our last interval but I said no lets run to the street, I pushed myself and did it I would not listen to my inner voice and just walk the rest of the way home.
Today for me was a rough day. Emalynn got up in the middle of the night screaming then was wild awake and didnt want to go back to bed. When the alarm went off we didnt want to get up but we did and started our day. I was unable to lay down during the day because we had a maintance guy coming by to fix Krysta's broken shower. Its been a very long day but I pushed through but I can tell you this I am looking forward to bed.
Working out with someone is the easiest way to keep yourself on track. Having that person next to you, you will be less likely to slack off. For me Matthew is much more then running/walking partner he keeps me honest. When I went to the gym I felt I got more out of doing classes then working out on my own. I need that structure. Tuesday and Thursday I do work out alone doing a workout here at home but Matthew knowing my personality he asks specific questions about my work out to know it I slacked off or not. I dont like disappointing him so I do my best not to. When I get to a point where I can run for miles I will just put on my favorite music on my ipod and just jam out. Of course it will be all crazy 80's and 90's music but hey Ill jam out as I run LOL. But that is many many days away.
my saying for myself today... NO PAIN NO PAIN NO PAIN
