Losing Weight & Feeling Great!

Well, it's January 6th and I'm still going strong on my lifestyle change! Even though I've been sick with, what I'm hoping is only, a cold and I've been coughing, sneezing & sniffling, I've been working out at least an hour every day! I'm SO proud of myself!!! I told everyone I was serious about losing weight and becoming healthy and I meant every word of that. Where do I get my motivation, you ask?

Right here:

Mackenzie has really given me a new look on life and really a purpose in this world. I want to be around for her and I don't want her to be embarrassed by me...well...at least my weight :-p
Wondering how I'm doing it? Here's a look into my daily routine:

Get up with Kenzie
Eat a bowl of oatmeal or Special K cereal
Drink a glass of water or skim milk
Do a 30 minute workout
Play with Kenzie
Housework
Put Kenzie down for a nap
Give Kenzie lunch
Lunch for myself: Tuna on whole wheat & 20 vegetable crackers with a glass of water
Do the "Just Sweat" on Just Dance 2
Play with Kenzie
Make supper (I'm not really strict of what I make, I just watch my portions)
Play with Kenzie some more.
Mess around online
Bed

Exciting, eh? I've also limited myself to not eating past 6pm. And I drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. Any questions, comments, words of encouragement, or advice please let me know! Hope you're all keeping your New Year's resolutions!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!! Put your back into it. Sorry, I had to lol Catch ya later.

Day 1 of the Diet

I actually started my "diet" yesterday, but didn't get to work out at all. Today I hit it hardcore with a small bowl of Special K with a banana. Then I did the Hip Hop Abs workout, all along with a crazy toddler pinching my butt and laughing :-p Since I didn't feel like I was going to die, just pass out, I decided to play some Just Dance 2 on the Wii. I feel amazing after doing all that! I'll be down in the poundage in no time if I keep this up! I always feel great after working out, it's just a matter if getting off my lazy butt to do it. I need to, though, for Mackenzie and myself. Who's with me? Let's make 2011 the best year yet!!!

A look back at 2010

Before I get to my look back on 2010, let me just vent about these past couple of days. Kenzie & I have been sick and it's just been awful around here. Kenzie's been bawling pretty much non-stop which is extremely tiring (you mamas know that!). Her attitude's been horrible anyway because she's gotten so much attention this week, so when it's just me & her dad around she's not getting enough attention to satisfy her in which case she screams and throws a hissy fit! Steve goes back to work tomorrow which means I'm in for a ride with her, I just know it. I am glad to get her back on schedule, though. Is it spring yet? lol
Anywho, 2010 was a lot of firsts for Mackenzie. Let's take a look back...shall we?

Channeling Elvis?
