I am officially fed up with myself. I am fed up with my lack of eating right and working out.  I feel like I have been so lazy this summer (ah yeah, because I have).  I always feel better when I eat healthy and I am active but somehow those reasons are never enough for me to get my butt out there and do it. Nor is the fact that my clothes are getting a bit tighter, uggg.  I am really not being a good wife and mother if I am always feeling down about myself so it is time to get down to business.

Of course getting down to business while living in an RV is not always the easiest thing to do.  I love Pilates and doing the dvds I have.  However there is no room in an RV for such exercises.

Ok I know that whatever I say about exercising is going to sound more like an excuse then a reason for not doing it.  Because seriously there is plenty of other things I could do.  Like walking and biking and they even have a tiny pool here that I could attempt to do laps in.  They also have a small workout room here at the park.  They have some treadmills and a few "at home" types of  exercise machines.  And yes they also have a TV with dvd player so technically I could do my pilates.

So tomorrow I am going to start something, come hell or high water.  I bet even if I didn't exercise but just stopped drinking Pepsi all day and stopped putting sugar in my coffee and drank plenty of water I would lose some weight to start with.

Right now I think anything is better then nothing.  So even if I start off slow at least it is a start in the right direction.  Wish me luck!!

Welcome to Think Thin Thursday, hosted by our lovely Bridgette over at "The Not-so-Blog Blog".

Well, this week wasn't all I expected or wanted. I weighed in today at 149.3 which is .1 lbs more then last week. I have been drinking my water but I need to lay off the soda for sure.

I did get in my 4 miles this week though, so yay for that. I did 2 miles on Sunday and 2 miles yesterday.

My goal for this week is to work out for a 1/2 hr no less then 3 times this week. For me that would be doing Pilates or another floor type exercise.

Here is the task for week 2
Tell us one temptation that you were faced with this week. How did you overcome it?
The biggest temptation for me is STARBUCKS!!! I am totally addicted to the Venti Iced Mochas. Not sure I was able to overcome it this last week seeing as I didn't lose any weight, blah!! I am fighting it hard though.

Better luck to me this week!!!

Do you like to work out? I hate it, but after I do it I like how I feel. It is just getting to the point of committing to put in that tape/dvd or joining a gym I have problems with.

I would like to join a gym but I worry I wouldn't use it. When I was working it was great. I would stop on the way home and it would be no problem. But as a SAHM I just mostly hang out at home with the kids and I am too lazy to actually leave the house "just" to work out.

I have some dvds I love to work out to at home but with three boys who has time? It is hard to work out when I am having 20 requests or questions thrown my way when I am trying to follow an exercise routine. Of course if I did work out at home I could always do it at like 4:00am or 11:00pm, before they get up or after they are asleep (NOT!!).

Ok, you caught me, I admit it, I am just LAZY!!! But realistically I am not getting any younger. I will be 41 in a few weeks now and I think I need to keep my physical health up to par.

I also need to eat better. I will usually eat real good for a few months or more then eat bad for a few months and go back and forth. My cycles of eating almost follows a pattern, perhaps even a seasonal pattern. Crazy as it may seem my lowest wt during the year is usually around Christmas time, go figure.

Regardless of what I do, the point it is I need to just get up off my behind and do it!! Anyone wanna be my work out partner?
