Last week I took my 15 month old son in for a well check up visit. While I was there one of the ladies up front says "Oh you're expecting again"! She must have said she's sorry about 10 times after I told her I wasn't expecting. One of the ladies at the library said this to me not to long ago also. Why do people keep thinking I'm expecting.
OH MY WORD! We took my 7yr old out for her birthday dinner last night, of course all 5 girls had to go potty. While in the bathroom I get a good look at my full body. I look like I'm EXPECTING!!! No wonder people keep thinking I'm having baby #7.
I'm so upset and keep tearing up. I can't believe I let myself stop working out last year. I was doing so good. I'd lost 21 pounds. Why did I stop? Why can I not seem to get started again? Why am I not right this second writting down a plan to get in shape? Why have I not started some sort of workout program?

Doing it!
Yesterday I tired my hand at the eating every 3 hours think. I'm trying to give my metabolism a boost. Did pretty good until I had a cleaning appointment when I was suppose to be eating. Hard to eat something while your getting your teeth cleaned:)
Today I will be home most of the day, so far I'm doing good. I've had Greek yogurt (and friend said try this because it has over 10g protein), part of a banana, peanut butter & Nutella bagel and an apple. Lunch time is around the corner. Not 100% sure what I'll be having then.
A friend posted the weather for next week (as of right now) and it's going to be a beautiful day to get out and walk. I'm waiting on my baby sitting schedule for next week so I can sit down and write down the times and all that I'm working out. Oh and what I'll be doing. I've lined up a friend to go walking with me, so no backing out there:)
Put a fork in me I'm done being fat! Time to melt away the fat that has taken over my body. I'm ready to be "one hot mama"! Time to get the party started! Gonna make me sweat til I bleed. Gonna bring sexy back. Ok enough with the songs. Need to update the songs on my exercise track on the Ipod!

Doing better
I've been doing better getting my 8 glasses of water in every day. Some days and better than others. Yesterday wasn't so great. I had all the kids home due to a snow day. Yes we had a snow day on March 5th. I was working on a knitting project also, which got me all off track.
Today I'm starting on cutting back on the amount of food I eat. I'm not ready to go full force Weight Watchers again, or start counting calories etc. I'm going into this slowly. I had oatmeal for breakfast and plan to get some fruit as a snack here in a few.
I've still got to sit down and figure out a work out schedule of some sort. I'm going to have to do this around my husband's schedule. As my 15 month old doesn't like to be away from me or Daddy. This is going to be interesting to say the least. I wish that warm weather would get here and stay. It's much easier to put the little ones in the stroller and go. I will get this figured out!

Why do I get off track?
Why do I keep getting off track? Life and kids are the only two things I can come up with. I got off track before Thanksgiving and Christmas. I had my surgery in January, spent Feb not allowed to lift and recovering. Now that it's March it's time to get back on track.
It seems like I always lose about 20 pounds and then get off track. I looked on my Spark people page and noticed I've gained 4 pounds since my post in September. I know that I was down more than that though. I'm sick of being fat, but I can't seem to get myself going.
I keep thinking to myself "My husband doesn't have a problem with my body, why should I". The problem being is that I'm not happy with my body. I need to get back to the pissed off phase that I was in when I lost all the weight before I had my 4th child. I need my Dr to say something to me like he did before. He wasn't ugly when he said it, but I was pmsing and it just pissed me off. I need that again. Maybe I should call up my beloved Dr. and get him to say it again.
I need a workout buddy. Someone who depends on me to be there and push them and they will turn around and push me as well.
I need TIME! Having 6 kids, having 4 of those 6 home all day every day,homeschooling, a hubby who works night shift and a strange schedule at that, baby sitting and just every day life things I'm having a hard time fitting in exercise. Not long ago I homeschooled my oldest which was nice because she could baby sit while I went to the gym for an hour or so. She's back in public school so that's a no go. I've got to sit down and think of something that is going to work for me. I'm thinking I might have to sit down and do this week by week as my baby sitting schedule changes weekly!
Today I'm starting over by drinking my 8 glasses of water a day. I've been only drinking 1-2 glasses a day. That's horrible! I'm starting with this and will figure the rest out as I go!
