not gonna be a sad mommy anymore!!


not gonna be a sad mommy anymore!!

4-10-2012





When I fell on November of 2010 and tore the ligament around my ankle I think I really fell into a body depression. I couldn't really run anymore. I didn?t have the desire to get in the gym and really lift weights, I may have pretended to lift pretended to work out. But if I am honest I really didn?t even bother to break a sweat much less make myself sore from a great workout. So when I really took a look at myself this weekend and saw the sad mommy that I had let myself turn into it was on!!



Running to and from kids events, being a mommy, sitting in the living room watching T.V., doing homework in the chair, playing on Facebook and working yeah I am busy. But really who of us isn?t??I can do better, I should do better. And now I will do better.



So I started reading the blog of a friend of mine who just finished this LiveFit program and looks great!! I knew I needed to get in gear. I have the goal of running a half this year but seriously if I don?t get up off my big fat lazy butt how will I ever make it 13.1 miles. Lets get real, I would be asking for a golf cart ride after mile 4. How unbelievably embarrassing!?!?!?!?



Today was the first day of my Live Fit Phase 1. I worked and picked up my little guy. We stopped and had a bite to eat with my sweet girl too. Busy afternoon today so I wanted to make sure we ate something early. She was off to play practice and he had soccer practice. Up to the gym and I made it through the day 1 workout with my husband in 25 min. We are feeling great. But defiantly tired by the end of the workout. Im excited!! I need this. I need to be back and working out and making my heart beat fast because I am really really working out again.



I took my before pictures today and wheew?.. I am not impressed with what I see. I did my measurements and wow!!! I was scared:/ so what ill do is keep up the work and make sure to keep taking pictures so I can see the way my body changes. If I get brave maybe ill post them. Stick with me, push me, remind me I dont want to be that sad mommy anymore. I want to be the mommy who is running down the side lines of the soccer team yelling them on!!
