Motivation PLEASE come back?

I'm not sure where my motivation is hiding but I hope it comes out soon. I have NOT been to the gym this week and there's no good reason why. Hopefully I can make it tomorrow and get a good workout in. I will not be able to make it on Friday because I am working my normal job 8:45 am to 6:15 pm and also watching 3 ADDITIONAL children from 7:00am to 12:45 pm its going to be rough but awesome! Then we are hosting family dinner again. On the menu my healthy twist on meatloaf and garlic broccoli! Its going to be yummo!!

It's been too long...

Unfortunately I have no good reason for not posting. My only excuse is I am SUPER lazy. I forgot about it the first week I didn't post and then felt bad for not making it to the gym to many times so I continued not to post anything. Anyways heres a recap of past few weeks:

Week of March 7th-13th
I think I worked out twice this week. Since I did not make a post I have no record of it so I can't be certain. Stupid me. I will get better at this whole blogging thing I promise. 

Week of March 14th-20th
I had one of my best weeks EVER! I made it to the gym on Monday in the morning and worked out 37 minutes. WOOT! That evening after having an early dinner ($1 sushi night) with my hubby we headed to meet my mom, sister, and baby niece at East Cobb park. We did 30 minutes of brisk walking around the track! It was so beautiful and Kaydin (my baby niece) loved it! Tuesday I did 40 minutes! Wednesday I did 43 minutes! and Friday I did 47 minutes!! Wow It was super hard to build up more and more everyday but I did it!!!

I did not make it to the gym this past week March 21st-27th.
I was sick with pharyngitis. Which I get from being a smoker. I know I shouldn't smoke I'll get there one day! I feel awful for not going because truthfully I was feeling better by Thursday. So I had ample time to make it to the gym.

I have finally spoken with my personal trainer and we will hopefully have another session this week! I am pumped! I had a bad few weeks off and on but I know this is a LONG journey I'm on. It's not going to be easy so I will have bad weeks I just need to get past them. 

Update on weight loss on weight watchers: I have lost 17.8 lbs total. Not to shabby I must say!
Thanks for your support!

Kinect Adventures is so fun!

I was off of work today and spent the day with my sister and baby niece. We had a fun day and Kaydin is so adorable. I had planned to make it to the gym but the day got away from me. My sister and I enjoy some China House Chinese food for dinner it was awesome! Afterwards we wanted to get some activity in so put in the kinect adventures game. We did 30 minutes of hard activity on that game! Part of it wasn't that hard but we did one that was harder than we have ever done. It was an amazing workout. I felt it right after. I love that feeling!

Why is it so hard?

It was so hard to get out of bed this morning just to go to the gym. If it was for my husband or baby niece I'd be there in a second. But for me to get out of bed to drive to the gym so I can sweat and hurt . I don't think so! Probably was extra hard because I didn't go to bed until 4am. After snoozing a billion times haha I got up and around fed the dog and left . I finally got to the gym and got to work on the damn elliptical! It was hard and painful but I kick its ass. I did 38 minutes burned 481 calories and went 2.71 miles!!!! YEAH! I did it! I was pretty tired afterwards plus I needed to eat something. I grabbed a banana and scarfed it down. BAD IDEA! I felt super nauseous and wanted to hurl. Breathed through it. Went and grabbed some sushi to eat later for lunch. Then headed to work. All and all it was a slow but good start to my day. Now if I could do it more often with out all the laziness it would be so much better!!
