Keep chugging along!

With my week being so busy and mostly working on fixing up the new house I haven't had any dedicated time to work out. I take that back I did squeeze in my 30 day shred 2 times this week I just had to do it in intervals; like 10 here and 10 mins there. I'm still trying to find how to work my schedule with the kids schedule.  Don't get me wrong I have been moving and very busy. I got on the scale to find 4 pounds missing! I definitely can't complain maybe we should start buying and fixing up houses and make a work out video out of it. =)

I've been loving
Still loving smoothies! I have found some healthier recipes and am excited to try them out!I've also been  drinking water like its my job.  my skin is loving it also!


motivation 
 My motivation this week has mostly been get up get as much done around the current house then get your but over to the new house. we only have 2 weeks to finish everything up. So I better stay motivated and very strict with myself. that all by it's self has kept me moving. 



something new
I have been trying to walk to the other house. This has probably been great for me to relive some stress and have some me time before I have to try and paint and chase a 1year old around.









<---How many times have I done this...too many times thats for sure!





So to end things maybe I should have started doing this after we moved in to our new house. Hopefully next week with the kids back in school I will be able to work out a schedule a little better. but this week I'm not complaining!
 I'll get there I just have to keep chugging along!

Fun in the leaves!

I was down stairs doing laundry and I hear oh my gosh giggles and squils lets go ask mom! 

Lizzy and Austin at the same time CAN WE GO PLAY IN THE LEAVES?

 Me:  put some shoes and jackets on guys but they couldn't here me over their excitement and plans they were making.

I did catch the Bent-man and cozzied him up. Don't you just want to squish him love his chunky little cheeks!

The sweetest Halloween costume in all the land!

Love this song!

"I know the rain is coming and its sure gonna pour. I know their aint no running from this kind of storm. its gonna get harder and harder to keep on pushing through I'm gonna wanna quit so I'll be countin on you.
Give me love when I aint got no body. a little hope when I aint got none at all. Give me light up ahead on the journey. Give me strength when I'm standing, and faith when I fall.
And when the clouds start partin and the sun starts shining through this time i won't forget... I won't forget about you."

morning walks, smooties and some butt kicking.

A day or two late but I'm still updating my progress.
I have been doing really great at getting out and going for walks. My diet has been staying really steady with lots of water, healthy smoothies, veggies, fruit and protein like beans and chicken. Until about I'm gonna say thursday and I went a little off track cause well the post below will fill you in on that.

But I am totally loving my my morning walks I will be sad when it gets to cold to take the kiddos out with me. I may sneek out on my own =)

I haven't gained any weight but as for losing any I think my chocolate and cheese cake at the end of the week is keeping my weight very steady.=)
I know a lot of people say you shouldn't weigh yourself because it doesn't matter what the scale says blah blah blah. I have to check in. I try to keep it to once a week. If I did it any more than that I would go crazy! I also like to journal what I have eaten and and the calories for each meal. I used to think it was so dumb when people would say Journal what you eat it will help you  lose weight. But I have been doing that and that's what I did earlier this year and it really seemed and seems to help.
Something New -
This is new this time around. A while back I was doing the 30 day shred with miss Gillian Michaels. Man she is one tough old goat hee hee =)  she's not really a old goat I think someone I know used to say that I"m thinking Dad or grandpa? not sure.

she seriously kicks your butt! But she very encouraging while your are thinking you are gonna die. well I'm starting it again! kinda excited to see results and well I have a concert to go to on the 17th of November. so I better see some progress.
My motivators-
My favorite thing any one ever said to me after I really worked hard you know like a ninja warrior and I  had lost my 23 pounds and was feeling really good about where I was. Was  something my mom said " you look like the old Heather" what she actually meant by that I don't know. but I took it as a compliment and keep playing it back in my head when I want to quit. Thanks mom Your words keep me going!
Till next Friday or Saturday =)
I've also been consider a before and after shot although well.......maybe I'll think about it.

yums on the run!

So I feel really good starting out this week despite they yums I consumed on Sunday.  But no worries I feel like I can conquer this day! Besides how can I gain any weight when I am  constantly running to the bathroom because of all the water I'm drinking. Thats great cardio and I run to fast through the kitchen to grab any snacks. 

I have realized with all of the addicting little yummies that come around and tempt me this time of year. My Journey is going to be quite the battle.
Like this yum...It's called caramel apple pie!!

 But I think I will still be able to do this! I just have to remember how good it felt when I could fit in those smaller jeans.

I'll be checking back in on Friday. I mostly just had to share the deliciousness above.

 seriously?

 this is hilarious!
