WEEK ONE

GOOD MORNING!

Something odd happened today. Something unheard of. Something...healthy?

I got out of bed before my kids.

RIGHT?!

I didn't do anything other than weigh myself and get dressed, but that counts for something, right?

Today is the day. The new day. The first day of many likely-sucky days when I will try to eat better and exercise more and probably whine and complain the whole time. But at least I'm doing it, so there! Ha! I win. Okay, not really. But sometimes a lazy girl has to trick herself into thinking she's awesome and totally winning at life.

Alright. The agenda today..

So far--

-- Get dressed. Check.

-- Take my very vital pills that cause are known to cause significant weight gain. Check.

Later in the day--

-- Go to town and get *GULP* healthy food, such as lots of fruits and veggies. Ew.

-- Exercise. I'll either go for a run outside, get on the treadmill, or do PiYo. Oy.

-- Clean the house. Talk about a workout...and the worst kind.

-- I also may have two clients coming by today. Giving manicures and pedicures isn't exactly promoting a healthy lifestyle or weight loss, but it is definitely beneficial for my social/mental health. I don't frequently leave the house or socialize a ton. So, yay me!

Oh, I didn't even tell you guys about my new career! I recently deserted/abandoned/traumatized my family by moving to Idaho Falls, ID alone for 10 weeks to finish my schooling. Don't worry, therapy will have my kids right back to their somewhat normal selves in no time! I am now a licensed Nail Technician and opened up a cute little home salon in my house!

OKIE DOKIE--

So here's the big fat ugly number all of you have been waiting for, right? The dreaded scale. Here we go. Here it is. I'm gonna post the picture now. In just a second. One more. Ugh. OK.


Well, there she be. That horrible number that's OVER 200. You may remember that I mentioned I weighed this much when I had my baby. Yeah, I don't have a baby excuse this time. BUT. I know I can do it. I know I can get down to the 170s and get my life back. Oh, and are you enjoying all that dust on the top of the scale? I clearly haven't used this bad boy in a while!

I should probably post photos of my lumpy-chunky-jiggly body in all its glory, but I'm too lazy to do that right now. I already got dressed for the day and that was hard enough. HA. The struggle is real, my friends. Ooh, I know! I'll take photos when I change into my workout clothes later today. Bet ya can't wait for those photos, eh?

Okay, so for a recap:

MY MONTHLY GOALS FOR JULY:

-NO FAST FOOD FOR THE ENTIRE MONTH OF JULY

-WORK OUT AT LEAST 3 TIMES EACH WEEK FOR AT LEAST 30 MINUTES

MY WEEKLY GOAL FOR WEEK ONE:

-RUN/WALK/JOG 6 MILES THIS WEEK 

Well, it's time to start my day. Wish me luck. If any of you fellow lazy-ites are feeling like today is NOT the day to start, GET OFF THE COUCH, COMPUTER CHAIR, OR BED! Join me! If I have to do this, so do you!

Chunky ladies (and gents,) UNITE!

God speed, my friends...
