You know all those good intentions I had at the beginning of January...not really feeling it and need to get my shit together. I am starting to feel bad physically and mentally so I need to start taking much better care of myself. I am doing pretty good about going to Jills but I don't really do anything in between. I want to start running again so I need to follow a program and stick with it. The eating has been going so bad. I need to do much better menu planning/meal prep. I know it works but just need to be consistent and do it.
Tomorrow is Feb 1st so a perfect day to start. Today I will use it to menu plan and make a grocery list. I also need to do some house work. I feel like because of my trip to Florida and then working I haven't done anything for almost 2 weeks. I have the rest of today and tomorrow to get things somewhat organized.
Ideally I would like to lose 60 lbs but 50 lbs is what I will set my goal for right now (how could I not feel better with that much weight off my body!!). I have so many things coming up in the next few months and I don't want to be stressing about not having anything to wear. It sucks feeling stressed about something I can actually control. I need to finally put an end to this addiction I have with food. I am almost tempted to discuss it with my family Dr. Maybe when I go for my physical (so past due) I will mention it to him. I will look on line too and see what they have for options. I know that people do have food addictions but the help does not seem to be as out there as with other addictions.
well I need to get started with cleaning the kitchen.

Clean the House
I have a love/hate relationship with this. I love it when my house is nice and clean (does not happen very often) but hate what it takes to get it that way. I need to start focusing on daily chores, weekly chores and monthly chores so I don't feel overwhelmed. My goal is to always keep my house clean/tidy so that I don't stress if we have people come over for a visit. It is much harder now that we have a dog but to be honest I wasn't that clean before we got Charlie either. Our house is really not that big but we have tons of stuff. We need to at some point take some time and really work on decluttering the house.
In the spring I would love to paint all 3 bedrooms and have them organized. We want to put wood flooring so I will have K price how much it would be to do all 3 plus the hallway. He did some work at a house and they have awesome wood floors and he brought a piece home for me and I absolutely love it. I know it will be expensive but I want something I love!!
I have worked out at Jills the last 3 days and man I am really feeling it in places I usually don't. I love these workouts and need to take advantage of the days I can go. My new thing too is taking Charlie for walks. I love getting out and doing a full hour walk. It is so much easier to walk her now that we figured out the gentle leader. she may not like it but she walks so much better for me when I use it.
Well I have to work the next 5 days so I need to do a little meal prep.

Intense Program
So the intense program that I am doing doesn't officially start till the 11th but this week is prep week which I am actually counting as my week 1. Time to work on getting my body back into weight loss mode and keep on going till i reach my goal weight.
The last 2 days I have gone to Jills for a workout and I am really feeling it. I love her workouts. They are hard but so rewarding when done. I have so much weight to lose but I can tell that I have been doing strength training again especially in my shoulders. Other's would not notice the difference but I can feel it :)
I keep saying this but I really need to start running again. Maybe tomorrow (if no bootcamp) but for sure on Wed-Fri (working days). I was hoping to get wednesday off as we are over staffed but I haven't heard anything yet so I am sure I won't be getting it off.
I am so tired right now I don't feel like doing anything but I do need to go get groceries for the week. It is hard to go out and do stuff when it is cold out. I am not complaining though since we have really had such a mild winter so far.
Well I am going to go on pinterest and see if I can find any fun and healthy meal ideas for the week.

Goals for 2016
I can't believe that 2015 is behind us and we have now entered 2016. I am hoping for a great year. I am going to do my best to make this the year that I get my shit together and have a healthier lifestyle that will make for a happier home (it is a happy home but we have our moments...or I have my moments which transcends onto everyone else).
We rang in the year with some great friends. I was so tired after finishing my 3rd 12 hr shift which all were steady shifts and so did not want to go out a socialize. I just wanted to go home and get into my PJ's. Well the little man really wanted to go so off we went. I am glad we did. It was a lot of fun hanging out with good friends, meeting new people and eating great food (and drinking great wine).
I was supposed to go to Jills and do bootcamp but I knew that I shouldn't be driving yet first thing in the morning. I did go and do a great long walk with Charlie so at least I started the year with some form of exercise. I should be able to go to class sunday and monday which will be good and then a few more later in the week.
here is a list of my goals for 2016
1. have a clean and organized house (I want my house to be always ready just incase people stop by for a visit).
2. Clean eating. I want to do my best to have my diet as clean as possible
3. Daily exercise which will include running, walking and strength training
4. budget my money better. I have a good paying job so I should not be living pay to pay
5. build up my running again. I am so sad I let this slip but I will get it back and find the runners high once again
6. help my little man realize the importance of healthy eating and exercise and stop being so negative when I speak about it. We bring in the unhealthy foods so we need to stop this and provide healthy options for him.
Those are good goals and I will try to do monthly updates on how these goals are going. I am going to make this year an amazing one :)
