Eating is the key

The hardest part for me is eating healthy. I LOVE to workout but I LOVE to eat sweets and foods that are fast too! I'm always talking myself out of taking the time to make something to fuel me and settle for something to fill me. Especially for breakfast and lunch. So this morning I talked myself into eggs! Spinich and cashew scrambled eggs. Yum!

Journey back to me

Today I took the kids swimming. I had to get in because Emma and Paul need to have someone 16 or older with them IN the pool. I pulled out my "fat" swimming suit that I wore when I was at my biggest before. It was tight!  Tight!!! The shorts I wear with them, tight. Barely fit. Ugh! Well, lets just say I found my motivation for not eating crappy anymore. 189lbs was my weigh in this morning. Last time I weighed this much I was 9mths preggo. Not cool. Not cool. Tonight when I wanted to eat after dinner I made myself a cup of tea instead. It was actually perfect. Tricked my brain into being satisfied. Brock called and asked if I wanted him to bring home doughnuts and I said, "NO!".  I want to want to play outside and in the pool and have the energy to do it this summer. I want to have the energy to be a fun mom. I used to have that and I want it again. Here's to my journey back to me! That is my goal!
