Weaknesses

I'm weak. Weaker than I ever thought I was. I eat and eat and eat. And not good things either. Junk. Just junk. If breakfast doesn't start off healthy then I apparently let the rest of the day's food go to waste (waist) as well.

I also haven't been exercising. I set up an exercise group with some girls from Church. Only one comes. I had six girls tell me they were really interested and wanted to come. Only one comes. And now that it's Christmas time and we have trees up, she has decided it's not a good time to exercise because kids might touch the trees. What?

My kids know not to touch our Christmas tree, they aren't going to go up to hers and start pulling off all her ornaments. If she's worried about my tree, she shouldn't be.

So now that I have no one to exercise with, I'm not.

I had a girl offer me her gym membership and I told her I'd buy it off her. She has yet to contact the gym. I've reminded her twice. Still nothing. Maybe when she gets next month's bill she'll think to call. I think the gym has a daycare, so I could drop my kids off and not be governed by my husband's school schedule, only the kids' school schedules. That would be nice. If she'd just sell me the dang membership!

Breakfast of Champions

Let's just say, that's not what I'm eating right now. I know it's terrible. I know it isn't good for me. I know it's not going to start my day off on a healthy foot. Nevertheless, it's what's for breakfast.

chocolate cake.

and cheese crackers.

I did have a bite of a baked apple, does that count for anything?

Balance Ball!

All right, so I did a 15-minute balance ball workout today. Huzzah!

And honestly, that is some difficult stuff. Especially the crunches. Trying to crunch while also trying to balance on the ball really got the abs good.

I also ate part of a peach this afternoon and ordered a side salad when I went out for dinner with DH tonight.

Not all of my choices were good, but DH and I split a chicken sandwich instead of a burger and I didn't eat as many fries as usual because of the salad. So, there you go.

I'll weigh in again one of these days. But for now, that's my update. I feel proud of myself for doing something good for myself today, even if I didn't do an amazing workout and stick to a super great diet without a single cheat. :o)
