Day 1

So today I had my first appt. with my personal trainer. and..... I literally, almost passed out.
I am not an active person people! I get winded when walking up a flight a stairs. No Joke. I do play softball once a week, but I am the catcher. I just squat there and throw back a ball every now and then.

I really loathe running.. ugh. But we started out with a 10 minute cardio warm up. Then went onto the actual workout part. Lunges, push ups, hard as hell crunches.. all this. For 30 minutes. About 5 minutes into it, I needed water because I was seeing spots. HAHAHA. But I blame that on the lack of food in my system. I had only had 1 breakfast taco at 9 am this morning and right before I left I scarfed down a single piece of toast with some strawberries and peanut butter.

My abs are seriously sore.

OH and then as if I wasn't already in physical pain, my PT decides to tell me, after she worked me out, that she didn't feel to good. Two words my friends, SWINE FLU.

So thanks PT, for the good but hard work out and the debilitating strand of flu that is sweeping the world.

Good Lord, my abs are going to HURT tomorrow!

It is Crunch Time

So.... I did it. I really, really did it. I signed up with a personal trainer. I have a personal trainer for the next 6 months. How awesome is that?!? I think it is stinkin awesome. I think I may have the eating under control.. kinda, I really need to watch my chocolate chip cookie intake. But other than that I think I am doing better.

But something super frustrating about having a naturally slow metabolism? Changing your diet does squat. The only liquid I take in is water. I no longer drink anything with caffeine
(for personal reasons) So no soda, coffee or tea. This has been since December.

How much have I lost because of this? NOTHING.

I stopped eating meat...for a whole month. How much have I lost because of this? NOTHING.

It is getting a TAD frustrating...

So I decided add some exercise into the mix. I am really doing it because I want to feel healthier. I want to be able to walk up a flight of stairs and not be out of breath. I don't think that should be happening at 23 years of age..just saying...

But who are we kidding, Mommy also wants a TIGHT ASS!

So I hope to follow up with my success or unsuccessful attempts at being a MILF.

Update on Jack

Just wanted to update to clarify that I do not think my kid is horrendous really. A lot of what I say is tongue in cheek. Plus I understand that a lot of the behavior he shows is just a phase and is normal toddler behavior.

I love him to death and would die for him. I cherish every moment I have with him and would not change a thing. My life would be way worse off if he had not come into my life.



P.S.
I have threatened to put him in time out twice while writing this post and he has punched me in the face. BUT I still love his stinky butt.

Horendible Twos

It seems as if my lovely two year old is really trying to out do all the terrible two stigmas that this young age has. Like he is saying, "Oh you think that is terrible? How about THIS!"

It is a whole lot of testing mom's patience and almost none of being good.

He is into doing the exact opposite of what you tell him. Throwing his toys around the living room, on purpose. Gurgling anything liquid, while we are out in public.

This is just the tip of the iceberg. If you ask him to get or do something he replies, "No! YOU get it!" While crossing his arms and stomping his foot. Attitude runs a plenty in his little body. Don't let his sweat demeanor full you, he is full of anger. He is about as angry as any two year old I have ever come into contact with.

He acts as if he was chained up, underneath the stairs for the first half of his life. Or like I wake him up with a spanking or something...

Please tell me this is a stage.
