Operation: CBG I Give Up

Yes, I give up. I can’t do it. I can’t sit here and keep track of what I eat all day and document how much I exercise (or don’t because I don’t) because it’s a joke. Life gets in the way and I’m too stressed out and tired to not give in to what I want to eat. Because I want to enjoy icecream with my son. And I want to be able to eat those rice crispies mixed with melted marshmellows...

Operation: CBG day 8 and 9 equals a total bust

It’s pointless to share the past few days with you, but since you’re following, I will. Yesterday was my rest day. It was the first day in seven days that I didn’t exercise. I had told myself that if I wasn’t exhausted by 8 pm, I would go to a yoga class, but by 7:45, both of my kids were sleeping and all I wanted to do was get into bed. I made a delicious pasta dish for dinner (using...

From Where I Stand

Looking out from where I stand, it is so big, so new, so curious. Look at the blue sky and all those puffy white clouds. Oh wow, an airplane just flew by.  Look at the tall green trees with all their leaves dancing in the wind. Ohhh and the birds. There’s a bird. And another. Tweet tweet tweet. Oh look, some lizards. Hi Mr. Lizard. Bang, bang, bang go my hands on the glass door. Can you see me? Can you...

Operation: CBG Day 4

I felt way more energized today! I took a step plus ab workout class this morning that kicked my butt. It was an hour long and my shirt was soaked. I haven’t worked out that hard in ages and it felt great! Can’t wait to do it again. My whole body feels tight and sore, but it gives me encouragement that this is all working. I don’t SEE a difference yet, although after the step class, I was able...

Operation: CBG Day 3

Today I am so freakin’ tired. I guess I’m just not used to exercising every single day and watching so closely what I eat. I am wondering if I’ll get used to it. I know I’ll get used to the exercising because it is already becoming addicting. I just want to be in shape. I am the mom of two very active boys and I just want to be able to keep up with them. I want to be able to practice...

Silly Snacks Caterpillar

Food seems to be the major source of power struggles between my 4 year old son and I.  He is constantly asking me for snacks and I find myself either giving in to get him to leave me alone or saying no and getting into a huge fight. It is a sucky situation and I hate the downward spiral of negativity associated with eating that is going on in my house. He is such a picky eater as it is, we just really don’t...

Operation: CBG Day 2

I’m a little discouraged today. I know it’s only day 2, but I’ve been somewhat trying to lose a little weight for over a week. Most people lose at least some water weight and bloat. Not me. My weight has stayed at the heighest regular weight for me and I am as bloated as ever. I may look about 6 months pregnant, as opposed to 4 yesterday.  What the hell? I woke up determined to get at least...
