Setbacks...I am used to these

I have had a few setbacks recently.  I was doing good with my workouts and then I bent over to pick up my baby and feel a bad tweak.  My back was whacked out for the next 3 days.  Then my cycle started and that came with some debilitating headaches.  I feel like these are horrible excuses but I know they are not.  It is hard to work through certain types of physical pain.  The only thing I can do, is get back to it and not get discouraged.  Not working out has led to some psychological side effects.  I am having a hard time feeling motivated, positive and have been feeling very depressed at everything.  I have a horrible body image right now and I want that quick fix but that is not gonna happen.  It took 8 years and 4 kids to get to where I am at and it's not going to change overnight.  I want to feel sexy, I want to feel desirable to my husband.  Don't get me wrong, he loves me no matter what and has told me that more than once.  I am the one who feels undesirable and disgusting.  These are things that I know I can combat, it just takes time and effort.  It's time to stop being a lazy ass...quite frankly!!! I am starting again on Monday and just going to make it through the week, one day at a time, each one is a victory.  I just gotta keep trying because each time I have to start over, is better than doing nothing at all!

EA Active 30-day Cahllenge: Day 2

Day 2: Feeling great!  I was pleasantly surprised by how less taxing it was during the running parts.  I feel like I am building my energy back up and getting my endurance up as well.  Keep going, it gets easier.

30 Day Challenge: Day 1

After feeling great yesterday, I decided to do the EA Active 30 day challenge.  Don't get me wrong, my thighs are killing me but I feel awesome!!! I slept so amazing last night.  It helps that my 4 month old is starting to sleep better at night as well.  I am excited to do tomorrow's workout. I only had one soda yesterday the rest of the day it was water.  I am also trying to get my body back to not eating after 6pm if it can be helped.  I may take a nap today, I should have yesterday but wanted to get more laundry done.  Feeling motivated and worn out in a great way!
